Poh Teck Tung Foundation Supports Livelihoods in Satun
The Poh Teck Tung Foundation has distributed vocational equipment and bicycles to low-income households and schools in Satun province to foster economic self-sufficiency.
On October 27, 2026, the Poh Teck Tung Foundation conducted a charitable mission in Satun province, marking the ninth southern province to receive such support. Led by committee members Surapong Techaruwichit and Surapong Serathapakdee, the foundation provided vocational equipment to 21 low-income households, valued at 535,590 baht. The initiative aims to help families establish sustainable livelihoods and reduce social inequality.
In addition to vocational support, the foundation donated 20 bicycles to two rural schools, valued at 25,800 baht, and deployed a mobile medical unit to provide free health services to the local community. The total value of the aid provided during this visit amounted to 561,390 baht.
For residents and visitors, this event highlights the ongoing efforts of major Thai charitable organizations to address regional economic disparities. While these initiatives provide immediate relief and resources to rural areas, the long-term impact on local economic stability remains to be seen. The foundation continues its mission to promote sustainable development across Thailand's southern provinces. No further details regarding future distribution schedules in other provinces have been confirmed at this time.
