Palmy’s potholes patched up – but Prayut promised punishment, says mum

The case of the model who appeared in pictures having a bath in a potholed Tak road seems to have had the desired effect.

But the mother of Palmy – who is actually a lady boy – says she is not happy with what her “daughter” did, reports Thairath.

She said that she was told that Prime Minister Prayut Chan-O-Cha got involved in the case behind the scenes and threatened to punish the local officials.

There was quite a gathering at the Ban Ton Pheung – Ban Teen That road yesterday as local district chief of roads Nathawut Thaweekeuakunkit declared the work finished on a 200 meter stretch.

He said the work was part of 1.9 million baht of repairs in the locality of the north western province of Tak.

But while Palmy’s mum was happy for the villagers who have a nice new stretch of road she played down the role of her “daughter” who also goes by the name of Athicha, 25.

Mum Songheuan, 45, said it was not “Nong Palmy’s” doing that the road was repaired. Palmy had only caused trouble for the local authority after she said they were threatened with punishment from the prime minister over the matter.
