Museum Foundation Expands Team For Classic Car Restoration
Jetsada Technical Museum Foundation has expanded its workforce and modernized management systems to handle growing classic car restoration demands, partnering with educational institutions and transitioning successful interns into permanent
On July 8, 2025, Dr. Bhakaphum Dechskulrit, board member of Jetsada Technical Museum Foundation, outlined the organization's new-era management direction. The foundation previously relied on a small team of mechanics for vintage car restoration, but has now expanded its workforce and modernized management systems to accommodate growing workload. Future plans include engaging outsourced partners to support organizational growth. General Worawit Chinnawaiwin, Supoj Ohnboonmee, and Abhisit Thammjai serve as primary leaders overseeing restoration work, driving improvements in the foundation's restoration standards and efficiency.
The foundation has expanded workforce development partnerships by signing MOUs with several educational institutions, including Buddhimantra Vocational College—led by Director Wanachaiwon Worawichitpun and Industrial Machinery and Metal Welding Department Head Anon Nonthasevatmeti—and Nakhon Pathom School for the Deaf, led by Director Sukhjai Chaimaatya, with support from academic and administrative staff including Vice Director Kanyarat Chantersen and Vice Director Sunthree Puthao.
Under modern management systems, the foundation has partnered with numerous universities and educational institutions, drawing many interns. When these young people develop affinity for the organization, many choose to continue working after graduation. Former interns now serving as permanent staff include Sittha Panpeeng, Natchakarn Rengdara, Meena, Theerawut Sudjai, Bunyu Paknoi, Abhiwat Phongsoard, Thanapol Rengdara, and Nujari Suksawat.
Vibha stated: "We thank Jetsada Technical Museum Foundation for offering students valuable professional training opportunities, inspiring their dreams and providing summer income alternatives. For example, Theerawut Sudjai, a hearing-impaired individual, began as a summer intern and now serves as a full-time foundation staff member—an inspiring example for his peers and disabled youth nationwide."
General Worawit added that the foundation currently employs multi-generational personnel, from senior mechanics approaching 70 years old to young staff aged 18–19, who collectively share knowledge and experience, with increasing numbers of both male and female young workers.
