Aou Panu enters the monkhood

Cee-Aou-Amy

Thirty-two year old Aou Panu Suwano of Ch7 was ordained yesterday at the Pattanaram temple in his hometown province of Surat Thani; he was given the monk nickname of “Aphinantoh”, meaning a person who will make others feel at ease. Aou, who has been stalling this event for a long time because of work, has decided to be ordained for 1 month. His parents are overjoyed by his decision.

In Thai/Cambodian/Lao buddhist culture, a man must enter the monkhood temporarily to give honor to their families and parents. It’s a form of religious respect to the people who raised them and a rite of passage for most men in this region.

Cee Siwat, Amy Klimpatoom, Yui Jiranan, Thun Tanakorn, and other stars came out to support Aou.

Aou’s lakorn with Aum Patcharapra, “Jaew Jai Rai Gub Khun Chai Taewada”, is currently airing on Ch7. In the lakorn, he plays Pae Arak’s conniving stepbrother.
