President of the Phuket Reporters' Club dies in Narathiwat
Sad news today. Thai Rath reporter Thongtuan Sukmuang, who was also president of the Phuket Reporters’ Club, died today when the minivan he was travelling in blew a tire and overturned in Narathiwat. Four other Thai Rath reporters were also killed in the accident.
Khun Thongtuan was a familiar face all over Phuket and he will be missed.
