September 25, 2006

Sudden Shocking News

It was 3:00 am on 23th September when I received the sad news that one of my staff - Ton was killed in a motorcycle accident. The tragedy happened on the night of 22nd September near his home village in Prasat, Surin, Thailand.

He was riding a motorcycle at night near his village and was allegedly struck from behind by a truck. He was rushed to a hospital in Prasat to receive immediate treatment. However, in spite of doctors' effort, he passed away at the hospital, aged 19.

Most Diligent Staff

Ton was his nickname. His real name is Prachuksil Sahadee (ประจักรศิลป์ สง่าดี). He was a relatively new staff at my guesthouse. He joined my company with his best friend, Thit, and started to work as a kitchen staff on 20th June, 2006. Since then, he had been trained to become a kitchen assistant of my restaurant. He was very silent but most diligent staff. I still remember that he was doing the dishes and cleaning the kitchen alone in the early morning every day.
