The government is preparing to inject money into athletes to the fullest extent. If they miss a medal, they will receive 100,000 baht.

Government House, "Sermsak" reveals that the Prime Minister will join in welcoming "View" back to Thailand tomorrow, while the government prepares to inject money into athletes to the fullest. If they miss a medal, they will receive 100,000 baht. He believes that Thailand will win no less than 10 medals at the "Olympic-Paralympic". Mr. Sermsak Pongpanich, Minister of Tourism and Sports, said about the Olympic Games in France that everyone must have heard the good news that we received 2 medals: a silver medal from View-Kulwut Vitidsarn in badminton and a female boxer, Flight Sergeant Junjaem Suwanpheng, who will compete tonight to compete in the finals. Another competition that we have hope for is Taekwondo, which will be held on August 7. We believe that we will at least get 3 medals. Tomorrow (7 August), I will travel to welcome some of the returning athletes first, with the Prime Minister traveling to welcome them at Suvarnabhumi Airport. I have prepared to hand out awards as agreed. As for other peopl e who traveled to compete with full force, even if they didn't receive a medal, the government would give each person 100,000 baht in pocket money. As for the competition where we are confident that we will receive a lot of medals, it is the Paralympics. It is expected that both types of sports will bring back no less than 10 medals, so I would like to ask everyone to give their support because it is a great sporting competition. No matter what medal you get, it comes from determination, preparation, and ability. The most important thing is the cheering squad. As for the injection, will there be additional money? Mr. Sermsak said that the presidents of various sports associations will receive some money, but the Olympic Committee and the National Sports Development Fund also provide some because we want to promote good and talented people to have good morale. When asked if the private sector would provide additional support, Mr. Sermsak said that there would be, and he would coordinate with the governor of the Sports Authority of Thailand. Previously, gold necklaces were given as prizes to athletes who won the competition, and additional prizes might be provided. As for the preparation for welcoming and parading the athletes who received awards, there will be a meeting on this matter to discuss how to make them receive a welcome that is worthy of their hard work and training and bring awards to the Thai people with honor and dignity.
