Bangkok-A recent gala evening in  Bangkok was dedicated to children who have difficult childhoods. Queen Silvia of Sweden, who founded "The World Childhood Foundation" decades ago, has helped raise over 60 million dollars worldwide. In  Bangkok, the event was organized in collaboration with the Thai organization "Safeguardkids," which also contributes significant funds nationally. 

Over four million baht were donated during the evening, attended by only 70 guests including Dr. Darin Phanthusak, a prominent figure in this organization, is well-known in  Pattaya and co-owns establishments such as Tiffany's Theatre, Woodland Hotel, La Ferme, and La Baguette.

Despite the festive atmosphere and Queen Silvia dancing to ABBA's hit "Dancing Queen" (a song composed for her wedding), the evening's serious purpose remained at the forefront for all attendees.

Queen Silvia's Childhood Foundation currently supports more than 115 programs across 17 countries, including Belarus, Brazil, Estonia, Germany, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, Nepal, Poland, Russia, South Africa, Sweden, Thailand, Ukraine, and the United States. The foundation actively raises awareness about children's rights and combats child exploitation worldwide.
