Chanachai Kongphon, a student of Choenglen School in Ayutthaya, passed away on Wednesday.
He sustained critical injuries after being left behind in a locked school pickup two days earlier. The driver has admitted that he forgot to check if all the children had left the vehicle at the school.
Chanachai’s parents have agreed to donate their son’s body to help other patients. It is therefore possible for the family to ask for the royally-sponsored cremation ceremony.
