NAKHON PHANOM: Thousands of people cheered as singer-actor Pakin “Tono” Kumwilaisak emerged from the Mekong River on Saturday afternoon, completing a charity swim that has raised close to 60 million baht for two public hospitals.
Tono arrived back on the Thai side of the river at 4.50pm after finishing the second of two legs of his swim between Nakhon Phanom and Khammouane province in Laos, totalling about 15 kilometres.
