the audience and present it to you once a week I'm a big fan also thank you

27
00:01:43.494 --> 00:01:49.674
you used to like once you

28
00:01:49.844 --> 00:01:54.881
did the interview in English to talking to the first French woman

29
00:01:54.847 --> 00:02:00.262
Astronaut Astronaut exactly exactly I love that yeah me too yeah she was so inspiring

30
00:02:00.215 --> 00:02:04.513
so many ways so do you still get to do the English interview often

31
00:02:04.385 --> 00:02:04.802

32
00:02:04.765 --> 00:02:13.516
not anymore not as much as I would like and not as much as before yeah actually your your your problem is kind of like

33
00:02:12.776 --> 00:02:15.744
similar to most people's problem

34
00:02:15.656 --> 00:02:21.038
uh in Thailand because we have been taking all these courses and classes in English

35
00:02:20.976 --> 00:02:22.290
since we are what like

36
00:02:22.194 --> 00:02:25.343
7 right and we don't get to use English

37
00:02:25.455 --> 00:02:26.119
almost

38
00:02:26.287 --> 00:02:27.024
never

39
00:02:27.054 --> 00:02:30.511
then you have to create opportunities for yourself to

40
00:02:30.325 --> 00:02:35.681
speak in the front of the camera or sometimes I'll just um pick out an articles

41
00:02:35.774 --> 00:02:39.040
an article and they just read it out aloud so that

42
00:02:38.916 --> 00:02:40.216
I won't forget

43
00:02:40.125 --> 00:02:42.655
yeah just like any skills on Earth

44
00:02:42.684 --> 00:02:45.614
if you want to maintain it and

45
00:02:45.897 --> 00:02:46.779
keep it up

46
00:02:46.924 --> 00:02:52.864
you have to practice so that's what I'm doing every day as well unfortunate in the sense

47
00:02:52.434 --> 00:02:54.055
that in my line of job

48
00:02:53.965 --> 00:03:00.125
I get to practice English 1 way or another so I think that's how I

49
00:03:00.176 --> 00:03:05.629
key polishing my English well it's funny you mentioned like talking in front of camera because

50
00:03:05.944 --> 00:03:13.382
30 years ago it would be so hard like impossible for you to talk in front of a camera but right now everybody has camera

51
00:03:13.314 --> 00:03:19.207
in their own hands so you can just talk to camera whenever you can put content on

52
00:03:18.956 --> 00:03:20.861
how you can put content on YouTube

53
00:03:20.875 --> 00:03:21.474

54
00:03:21.836 --> 00:03:22.803
done right

55
00:03:23.044 --> 00:03:29.739
I used to talk in front of the mirror actually oh really to look at myself not so much on the camera yeah but I think camera is

56
00:03:29.454 --> 00:03:37.885
can help because you can replay and look at yourself how you look or how you sound when you speak in Thai English or whatever language is

57
00:03:37.654 --> 00:03:38.393
you want

58
00:03:38.366 --> 00:03:43.604
whatever you do when you uh still anchoring at the nation and on TV

59
00:03:43.425 --> 00:03:49.754
uh in the beginning in the beginning yeah I'll just practice by myself at home

60
00:03:49.895 --> 00:03:51.076
um

61
00:03:50.925 --> 00:03:53.654
speaking out loud so that I would

62
00:03:53.675 --> 00:04:00.987
calm my my nerve down somehow because I get excited too you mentioned before we started taping

63
00:04:00.973 --> 00:04:02.333
that you were nervous

64
00:04:02.390 --> 00:04:07.701
and I couldn't believe it because you've done this for you have been doing this for over 20 years

65
00:04:07.574 --> 00:04:12.900
exactly yeah you still get nervous but I've never talked to you

66
00:04:12.695 --> 00:04:17.804
okay so I'm excited to be meeting you

67
00:04:15.395 --> 00:04:17.026
so that's a good excitement

68
00:04:17.055 --> 00:04:24.824
yeah that was a good kind of excitement yes I look forward to getting to talk to you oh me too same here so I'm also

69
00:04:24.556 --> 00:04:28.570
excited about the show today so um let's go back to

70
00:04:28.965 --> 00:04:30.067
20 years ago

71
00:04:30.054 --> 00:04:30.349

72
00:04:30.185 --> 00:04:35.277
when you first started um before you got this job as

73
00:04:35.127 --> 00:04:37.275
a news anchor

74
00:04:37.364 --> 00:04:37.585

75
00:04:37.686 --> 00:04:38.807
what did you do then

76
00:04:39.095 --> 00:04:44.731
before that before that um before that I spent a short time at Boi

77
00:04:44.924 --> 00:04:50.740
Highlands Board of Investments okay and then before that I just graduated from University

78
00:04:50.814 --> 00:04:56.560
so it's a it was a very short time at Boi and then I went to um Nation TV

79
00:04:56.073 --> 00:05:00.820
so I it was 1 of your first jobs

80
00:04:58.694 --> 00:05:01.204
you started out in in the business

81
00:05:00.804 --> 00:05:06.244
exactly how did you train yourself or how did you uh practice to be on camera

82
00:05:06.324 --> 00:05:08.402
besides talking in front of a mirror of course

83
00:05:08.434 --> 00:05:15.073
uh I look at how other people do it like or all the other more

84
00:05:15.034 --> 00:05:18.091
experience um journalists do it and then

85
00:05:18.164 --> 00:05:24.963
keep on doing it I guess practice makes perfect so the more you do it then you're more the more you get the

86
00:05:24.764 --> 00:05:30.005
deal of it and I guess that's how I would start to feel more comfortable about

87
00:05:30.215 --> 00:05:35.611
saying things or reporting in front of the camera did you have any Idol that you look up to

88
00:05:35.406 --> 00:05:36.716
and try to

89
00:05:36.625 --> 00:05:38.045
probably learn from

90
00:05:37.964 --> 00:05:42.870
like the Styles the um uh the way they like report news

91
00:05:42.837 --> 00:05:48.167
um not so much of the style but I think I learned a lot from

92
00:05:48.285 --> 00:05:51.930
um especially how he would focus on the content

93
00:05:51.994 --> 00:05:53.009
of

94
00:05:53.343 --> 00:05:56.250
we want to say and not so much about

95
00:05:56.223 --> 00:05:58.404
how we look

96
00:06:03.404 --> 00:06:09.303
exactly that's amazing and he's been like developing he's been uh changing he's been

97
00:06:09.296 --> 00:06:11.539
um like going with the trends

98
00:06:11.605 --> 00:06:12.573
that's amazing

99
00:06:12.565 --> 00:06:17.880
on his part exactly so working with him I learned a lot especially how he

100
00:06:17.885 --> 00:06:19.232
she just doesn't stop

101
00:06:19.283 --> 00:06:19.908
yeah

102
00:06:19.863 --> 00:06:23.083
he keeps on running so in order to keep up with him

103
00:06:23.257 --> 00:06:28.554
at least I have to jog right or else he will be so far ahead that I can't catch up with him

104
00:06:28.514 --> 00:06:34.092
so he has been a role model in many ways as a journalist as

105
00:06:33.965 --> 00:06:36.037
a person who is very

106
00:06:35.944 --> 00:06:41.369
diligent and hardworking and he's always curious about the world around him

107
00:06:41.195 --> 00:06:43.176
so you were like fresh

108
00:06:43.054 --> 00:06:47.058
out of college so to speak more or less yeah more or less and

109
00:06:46.966 --> 00:06:50.369
when was the first time that you got the feelings that

110
00:06:50.874 --> 00:06:51.750
I got it

111
00:06:52.024 --> 00:06:55.203
I have already discovered who I am

112
00:06:55.223 --> 00:06:59.427
on camera and I have my style and I'm confident now

113
00:06:59.528 --> 00:06:59.939

114
00:07:00.415 --> 00:07:06.121
took up quite a long while yeah yeah yes or months at least

115
00:07:05.727 --> 00:07:10.468
half a year I think oh okay yeah before before I can

116
00:07:10.408 --> 00:07:12.046
control myself

117
00:07:11.945 --> 00:07:13.320
to the point that

118
00:07:13.358 --> 00:07:14.425
my heart

119
00:07:14.835 --> 00:07:21.104
it would be it faster whenever you know the cameraman say 54321 and then camera right

120
00:07:20.975 --> 00:07:26.808
yeah my heart would beat faster but then the time that I can calm it down would

121
00:07:26.744 --> 00:07:31.372
be shorter and shorter ah you control yourself better yeah a little bit

122
00:07:31.367 --> 00:07:36.617
by bit by bit I think right okay and how about when you first

123
00:07:36.806 --> 00:07:37.950
know that

124
00:07:37.956 --> 00:07:43.222
kind of develop your own style that people can tell the difference between without and other people

125
00:07:43.466 --> 00:07:44.413
oh that

126
00:07:44.486 --> 00:07:45.731
that I really

127
00:07:45.646 --> 00:07:50.754
I think I have to ask the audience for that yeah because I'm just being myself I guess I don't

128
00:07:50.704 --> 00:07:53.194
I don't plan on

129
00:07:53.205 --> 00:07:58.931
how I will be on camera I I don't plan on that at all I'm just being myself like that

130
00:07:58.910 --> 00:08:01.399
talking to you okay and I think

131
00:08:01.336 --> 00:08:02.512
it is um

132
00:08:02.746 --> 00:08:03.881
it's just natural

133
00:08:03.966 --> 00:08:09.321
so there's no intentional design know in advance of how you want to look

134
00:08:09.088 --> 00:08:10.152
or no

135
00:08:09.926 --> 00:08:14.474
not at all this I see yeah this is me this is the way I am yeah

136
00:08:14.856 --> 00:08:16.145
and people love that

137
00:08:16.265 --> 00:08:21.638
oh thank you yeah me too oh thank you thank you I think everyone is unique

138
00:08:21.135 --> 00:08:23.129
like I look at you

139
00:08:23.125 --> 00:08:28.546
you're yourself the way you talk the way you react and I think we all can sense that

140
00:08:28.956 --> 00:08:32.157
that's the sincerity right that we

141
00:08:32.086 --> 00:08:36.014
talk to them on camera yeah but

142
00:08:35.865 --> 00:08:37.804
anyway you came before me like

143
00:08:37.665 --> 00:08:39.207
15 years

144
00:08:39.078 --> 00:08:44.946
at least so I I'm sure I'm going to learn a lot from you today

145
00:08:44.778 --> 00:08:45.747
so

146
00:08:45.605 --> 00:08:49.256
I I was curious what you think about how

147
00:08:49.065 --> 00:08:50.613
easy it seems

148
00:08:50.608 --> 00:08:54.265
for a lot of people to just be on camera and act as

149
00:08:54.257 --> 00:08:56.093
a reporter or just

150
00:08:55.795 --> 00:09:00.270
you know really report uh from these things

151
00:08:59.446 --> 00:09:01.205
sometimes or

152
00:09:01.175 --> 00:09:04.726
to like analyze whatever is going on in the world

153
00:09:04.636 --> 00:09:04.878

154
00:09:04.957 --> 00:09:06.913
it was pretty easy today

155
00:09:06.936 --> 00:09:14.613
like um you know the opportunity that they can learn and uh speaking English uh opportunity to practice themselves

156
00:09:14.496 --> 00:09:17.261
in front of a camera and Technology helps a lot too

157
00:09:17.376 --> 00:09:22.214
it's pretty easy and how how how do you think about that um I think it's

158
00:09:22.447 --> 00:09:29.430
easier in the sense that technology helps with the flow of information right it's very easy to find information

159
00:09:29.296 --> 00:09:32.538
from Google from the internet

160
00:09:32.436 --> 00:09:33.123
but

161
00:09:33.265 --> 00:09:39.649
at the same time because of this overflow of information I think you have to really be able to

162
00:09:39.417 --> 00:09:40.278
distinguish

163
00:09:40.445 --> 00:09:42.275
what is what is fake news

164
00:09:42.245 --> 00:09:44.774
what is real news what is facts

165
00:09:44.546 --> 00:09:47.174
and what is opinion I think

166
00:09:47.165 --> 00:09:50.633
that's the line that you must be able to draw

167
00:09:50.507 --> 00:09:50.757

168
00:09:50.825 --> 00:09:53.503
with all the information that you see

169
00:09:53.516 --> 00:09:57.173
yeah so you don't see it as a problem or a threat

170
00:09:57.036 --> 00:10:02.405
or someone who came before like a lot of photographers out there were talking about how

171
00:10:02.545 --> 00:10:03.287
you know

172
00:10:03.186 --> 00:10:08.895
a technology these days or you know the the quality of the camera on on the phone can

173
00:10:09.086 --> 00:10:09.781
can

174
00:10:09.848 --> 00:10:12.763
enable a lot of people to be

175
00:10:12.927 --> 00:10:16.932
almost as good or even better than a professional photographer

176
00:10:16.966 --> 00:10:22.201
so you don't have any problem with that in terms of like people acting as a news reporter

177
00:10:22.405 --> 00:10:23.481
mm

178
00:10:23.364 --> 00:10:25.534
no not at all not at all

179
00:10:25.413 --> 00:10:30.726
all are welcome is an open field I think it's totally up to you

180
00:10:30.663 --> 00:10:36.292
to the audience to decide who they want to listen to maybe it's because of the style of the

181
00:10:36.112 --> 00:10:38.992
personality of the content of

182
00:10:39.056 --> 00:10:42.477
whatever factors yeah um accessibility like

183
00:10:42.584 --> 00:10:48.173
Tik Tok probably is easier to watch news on Tik Tok than on

184
00:10:48.353 --> 00:10:49.238
CV

185
00:10:49.692 --> 00:10:55.889
maybe people are still watching that maybe for some people so it's totally fine I think platforms are

186
00:10:55.844 --> 00:11:02.212
not important at all as long as you can have access to all of those information

187
00:11:01.282 --> 00:11:04.816
to listen to the people that you like I think that's fine okay

188
00:11:04.683 --> 00:11:10.051

00:11:10.125 --> 00:11:12.710
