“My biggest motivation is my mother. I’ve been through a lot. I was poor once, and it was my mom who was there with me since I was very young. I still remember, I worked with my mom, we had to go out and dig some potatoes. We only get 250 THB per day. And I remember what she said to me when I was younger, I was sick, and she told me that I could take a break. And now I just want her to live comfortably and have a happy life. Everything is for my mom.”
