The hospital director praised Maha Sarakham Province for composing a song, singing Mor Lam, and editing an MV for posting on social media, hoping to use Mor Lam to communicate with patients, provide knowledge, and encourage awareness of the dangers of disease. Dr. Pinpat Datumma, or Director Tum, 38 years old, Director of Chomchuen Hospital, Public Health Office of Maha Sarakham Province, uses his artistic blood, whose father is a lute player in the Pong Lang band, to sing a Morlam song called 'Stroke Krachok Jai' to communicate with patients in a pleasant melody while providing health education before entering the examination room so that patients with cerebrovascular disease (stroke) can access treatment in time during the Golden Period or the golden time when blood clot dissolving drugs can be considered, which is approximately 4 hours and 30 minutes. Three days ago, the MV was uploaded to various social media channels. The response was good, especially on TikTok, where more than 46,000 people have view ed it. Not long ago, the MV for the song 'Diabetes Shaking the Heart' was released, which received more than 54,000 views, greatly impressing social media users. Some examples of comments include, 'I am stunned by the director's abilities.' 'I would like to commend your dedication in communicating to the public about the dangers of the disease, which will be well-remembered through music. The director's voice sounds like a professional singer's.' The director of Pinphat said that these were the 2 songs that he had just composed for the first time in his life. The inspiration had to go back 3 months ago when he was examining diabetic and hypertensive patients. The patients found out that they had talent in this area, so they asked him to sing Morlam for them to hear. He thought that singing Morlam in general would not be appropriate. It turned out that the director was too much of a fun person (liked to have fun). So he composed a song about disease prevention to benefit the patients, which was not only admir ed by the people in the district, but also beneficial to the people nationwide, with a disease rate of 300 people per 100,000 population. If treatment was not given in time, 5% could die and 70% could become disabled. He chose to communicate with Morlam because he was skilled in this area and it was during the Morlam fever era, which allowed him to reach a large group of people. He composed the lyrics, melody, and edited the MV himself. His junior named Namtoey arranged the harmony. In the future, he will continue to compose songs, such as the song 'Liver Fluke', which is the cause of bile duct cancer, and 'Tuberculosis', etc. For Director Pinphat, who graduated from the Faculty of Medicine, Khon Kaen University, Class 33, even though he has been in his father's Pong Lang band since he was a child, he did not sing. He started showing off his vibrato at various events after graduating from medical school in 2011. He does not feel shy when he goes on stage to sing or follow a parade float, so he was nicknamed "Director of the Parade Float" and most recently "Director of Morlam" Source: Thai News Agency
