After "Peck Sanjai" gave an interview following rumors linking his relationship with "Ning Patama" as well as the controversy about the voice in the head of "Tanya Thanyares" who commented asking about Ning and Peck's relationship, to which Ning replied, “He is an older brother I respect,” sparking the issue.
Peck Sanjai openly admitted knowing Ning and that they had indeed gone to Chiang Mai and America together, but as part of concert work. This made many revisit a clip where Ning Patama had told the media she did not go to Chiang Mai with Peck and swore it wasn’t her.
“Actually, Peck and I are close like siblings. He really gave me work. If asked whether there is something more, maybe not yet. I'm indifferent and believe everything will come out on its own. We don't need to rush or get anxious. I've talked with close friends and elders who advised me to answer truthfully, so I’m not worried about it.
I talked with Peck before, but afterwards, we hardly spoke to avoid problems or uncomfortable feelings. I told him the truth—we only know each other as siblings.
When people linked me going to Chiang Mai with Peck, I said I did not go with him, though I have been there with him. I went to sing at the Warm Up bar; he also went, along with several artists. But one clip showed me and Peck on stage together. When other artists sang, it wasn't recorded.
So it became a story that I went to Chiang Mai with Peck, but I did not. I went there to work and sing, as said. That caused problems. I swear it wasn’t me. I did not go to Chiang Mai. I affirm it wasn’t me.”
“Honestly, I have known Ning for a long time, even before the contest last year. Actually, I’m not perfect; I’ve tried and tried but haven’t stopped yet.
At that time, I tried to coordinate since I organize concert events anyway, so I arranged for her to have concerts to talk more.
About Chiang Mai and the U.S., it’s true. It’s not just Chiang Mai; we’ve been to many provinces for concerts. We went openly. I went up to sing and saw she checked in at the airport.
If I had wanted to hide it at that time, I wouldn’t have appeared publicly or taken the same flight. So I say it’s true we went to Chiang Mai and America for concerts.”
Recently, Ning Patama's fan admin spoke through the Open Chat in the fan group, saying the entire story arose from mixing timelines from different months and years, causing many to misunderstand this case.
“We would like to clarify about going to Chiang Mai: our band and dancers did go. That day was a charity event with many artists participating. The timeline is from a performance last year. When we were interviewed, reporters asked if we had recently been to Chiang Mai. We confirm we did not. The timelines are from different months and years, which caused many misunderstandings.”
“From listening to more interviews, it appears these events happened at different times. When Ning gave the interview wearing red and said she did not go to Chiang Mai, she was answering about that particular time, and she had not traveled there then.”
“The clip showing Ning in Chiang Mai was from the performance event mentioned by Parn, from the previous year. Ning went there for work as usual, with staff, musicians, and dancers accompanying her.”
