Thai Celebrities Promote Youth Ethics at Wat Dhammamongkol
Actor S Kantapong and a group of volunteer celebrities participated in the 'Virtuous Seedlings' project at Wat Dhammamongkol in Bangkok to foster moral development in youth.
According to Khaosod Online, actor S Kantapong led a team of volunteer celebrities to participate in the 'Virtuous Seedlings, Leading Youth to Goodness' project held at Wat Dhammamongkol in Bangkok. The initiative was organized by the National Assembly for the Promotion of Morality and Culture, led by Dr. Kanthana Soncharoen and Dr. Nui-Ketsarin Ekthawatchakul, in collaboration with volunteer teachers from the temple.
The program aims to instill ethics, public consciousness, and Buddhist principles in children and youth, encouraging them to grow into quality individuals who understand their duties and practice kindness. The closing ceremony was presided over by Phra Thep Wachirabandit, the acting abbot of Wat Dhammamongkol, who delivered a sermon and presented 'I Will Be a Good Person' certificates and pins to the participants.
For residents and visitors, this event highlights the ongoing community-based efforts in Bangkok to promote social values and youth development through religious institutions. While the project successfully concluded its recent session, it remains to be seen how these moral education initiatives will be integrated into broader local youth programs in the future. The event took place at the temple located on Sukhumvit 101, Soi Punnawithi 20.
