News, Editorial, Published on 16/04/2017
» Less than 10 days after the Prayut Chan-o-cha government implemented the Universal Coverage for Emergency Patients (Ucep) scheme which requires private hospitals to accept emergency patients within 72 hours, Natee Sarawaree suffered a cerebral haemorrhage after a fall. Without consciousness, he was rushed to the nearest private hospital, which admitted him presumably as a patient under the so-called "red category", meaning his condition was critical and required immediate treatment. A transfer to the state hospital he was registered with was ruled out as it was deemed too risky. And under the new scheme the hospital is prohibited from rejecting a patient in the red category.

Traditional activities and perks for kids include an opportunity to sit in the prime minister's chair at Government House (which I did years ago), breathtaking airshows by the Royal Thai Air Force, free gifts and privileged entry to zoos and museums. What a day to be a kid!
