A former young prisoner takes up an honest profession selling grilled meat like a bandit.

A former young prisoner takes up an honest profession selling grilled meat to support his family. He appeals to society to give released prisoners a chance to start a new life. At the Betong Good Things Festival and Betong District Red Cross Fair, at the Betong Municipality Water Park, Yala Province, there are many shops selling both household items and food. But the most eye-catching one is a grilled meat shop with a strange name: "Song Chon Grilled Meat Shop". The shop owner is named Uan, 41 years old. The shop owner is standing selling with his wife. There are customers standing in line in front of the shop. Mr. Atsanai, the shop owner, said that 7 years ago, he was convicted of robbing a gold shop. After being released from prison, he started an honest business selling grilled meat under the name 'Nua Yang Song Chor'. There are 7 menus to choose from, such as 'Nua Yang Song Chor', which is sold for 10 baht per stick, 'Suea Rong Hai' for 100 baht, 'Larb Nuea' for 80 baht, 'Nuat Nam Tok Nuea' for 80 baht , and 'Khao Niao' for 10 baht. Most importantly, no one can imitate it, which is the dipping sauce, including the recipe for marinating beef and chicken, which is his father's recipe. Sales are 1,000-2,000 baht per day. After the festival is over, he will return to sell in front of his house, opposite the Rainbow Place Hotel, Phatthana, in Betong Municipality. The 'Nua Yang Song Chor' shop's Facebook page is open every day and offers delivery service to areas in Betong Municipality. Mr. Atsanai also left a message for children and teenagers who are going astray, asking them to turn themselves around and asking society to accept former inmates and give chances to those who have gone astray.
