Sukhothai Police Officer Provides Free Haircuts for Over Two Decades
A police officer in Sukhothai province has spent more than 20 years providing free mobile haircut services to local residents in need.
According to a report by Thai Post, Police Sub-Lieutenant Surat Sribua, an officer stationed at the Sawankhalok Police Station in Sukhothai, has dedicated his spare time to a long-standing community service initiative. For over 20 years, he has traveled by motorcycle to visit the homes of elderly and bedridden residents to provide free haircuts. This act of kindness recently gained public attention after he visited a 102-year-old woman, who offered him a blessing in return for his service. For residents and travelers, this story highlights the community-oriented spirit often found in rural Thai districts, where local officials frequently engage in grassroots social support. While the officer's dedication is well-documented by local media, the specific logistics of his service schedule and whether he receives any formal support for his equipment remain unconfirmed. This initiative serves as a testament to the personal commitment of individual officers to the welfare of their local communities beyond their standard law enforcement duties.
