Hello,

I am a Thai to English translator (vice versa) based in Pattaya, Thailand. I would be more than happy to help anybody trying to contact loved ones who may have been involved in the Tidal wave disaster in southern Thailand yesterday.

I will offer the following services "FREE OF CHARGE":
"TRANSLATION SERVICE" - E-mail’s, letters etc translated to and from Thai and forwarded by Thai post or email to your chosen destination (please note that I can only translate Thai to English and English to Thai).
"TELEPHONE CALLS" - I will try to contact your loved ones by phone in the disaster area and pass on a message for you.

If you would like to take me up on the above offers of help please email me at translate@buythai.net .

Regards,

Pada.

You deserve thanks for offering your services as many people must be concerned about friends and loved ones over there. only to be frustrated by their lack of Thai.
