“No matter how difficult the journey may seem, keep going—your efforts will lead you to success.”

  He is Wai Paign Oo. Growing up, He faced many challenges that forced him to leave his home and move to Thailand in search of work. Due to family difficulties, he had to take on any job he could find to support himself and his loved ones. However, He quickly realized that without proper skills and training, achieving a stable and fulfilling career would be much harder.

             That’s when he discovered the Rays of Youth Vocational Education Training (ROY VET) Program and enrolled in the Food and Beverage Training course. This opportunity gave him the chance to learn valuable skills and gain hands-on experience in the industry.

              The journey was not easy—He faced many obstacles, moments of self-doubt, and uncertainty about his future. But with the unwavering support of trainers, mentors, and friends, he stayed committed to his goals. Their encouragement and guidance helped him push through challenges, and he successfully completed the program.

                Today, He is proud to work as a Chef Assistant at Chimney Restaurant. This job has not only given his financial stability but has also allowed him to support his family and build a future he once thought was out of reach. The skills he gained through the ROY VET Program have empowered him to stand on his own feet and create new opportunities for himself.

                 To all young people who are struggling, he want to say that: if you get the chance to learn new skills, take it! With determination, hard work, and the right support, you can build a better future for yourself. No matter how difficult the journey may seem, keep going—your efforts will lead you to success.
