Agriculture and Cooperatives Minister Suriya Jungrungruangkit was urgently hospitalized late last night after losing consciousness at a well-known hotel. Doctors performed emergency heart compressions to save his life following what is believed to be exhaustion from heavy work. His condition has since stabilized.
According to close associates, the minister collapsed and lost consciousness around 10 p.m. on May 24, prompting an immediate hospital transfer for emergency treatment. He is now reported to be in stable condition.
The collapse is believed to have been caused by work-related exhaustion. On May 24, after arriving in Udon Thani province to prepare for fieldwork scheduled for May 25, the minister attended a meeting that likely contributed to physical fatigue, triggering the fainting episode.
