Grandpa Deuanchai's Flood Prayer Draws Hai Thongkam Interest
Grandpa Deuanchai chanted to reduce floodwaters after his Bangkok-area home was inundated, and the water receded the next day. A video of his ritual attracted the Hai Thongkam music label, which offered him a role as a mystic instructor and possible singer. He also claimed good luck in the October 1, 2069 lottery, citing his house number and car plate.
Grandpa Deuanchai, a former monk known for mystical practices, chanted to drive away floodwaters after his home in the Bang Na-Trada area was inundated on September 26, 2069. The chanting apparently succeeded as water receded the next day. A video of his ritual appeared somewhat eccentric, showing him chanting while lamenting lack of government help. The clip caught the attention of Prachakchai, owner of the Hai Thongkam music label, who promptly contacted him, offering a role as a humorous mystic instructor and potential singer under the name 'Grandpa Deuanchai Hai Thongkam'. Deuanchai expressed delight and even performed a dance hoping to join the label. He also said that despite the flooding, he felt lucky in the October 1, 2069 lottery, citing his house number 110 and car plate numbers that supposedly won him tens of thousands of baht.
