After that Noom Kanchai Kanploi the renowned host, went to the Crime Suppression Division (CSD) to provide information as a donor to the Good Deeds Foundation, which Bhum Panadda Wongpudi the beauty queen and TV host, chairs. He later opened up to the media saying that after learning some information, he was nearly knocked to his knees. His perspective completely changed—like turning the world upside down.
Most recently, on the “Noon News” program on Channel 3, hosted by Noom Kanchai and Muay Arisara they covered a segment on Bhum. Muay asked, "Noom, what do you think about what we heard from Bhum’s interview? You emphasized telling the full truth—do you think Bhum did not tell the whole truth?"
Noom Kanchai replied, "For me, I’ve always listened to and trusted Bhum, but yesterday, by chance, I saw something that changed my mind. What Bhum told us is not the whole story. What I saw yesterday wasn’t about land at all. The pool villa is only a small part; it may be a surfaced issue, but it’s just the tip of the iceberg. Beneath the surface, it’s much bigger." (He gestures to show a wide area.)
He then recounted donating money in 2024, showing a transfer slip of 1 million baht. The note below said it was to support flood recovery, transferred on 18 Sep 2024 at 11:17 a.m. He sent it at Channel 3 before the show to help with flood recovery in Chiang Rai. Wanting to be part of the effort, since he himself didn’t visit the area but Bhum did, he transferred the money without informing her initially. Later, Bhum acknowledged it and posted the slip or something similar, he couldn’t recall.
However, yesterday, in the police report he was asked to sign, the time noted was 11:17:21 a.m. After reading it, he asked, "Officer, why is there a 21 seconds here? My slip doesn’t show that. Where did you get it?" The officer said they had checked their data and confirmed the transfer happened exactly at that time. The police had instantly checked whether the slip’s timestamp matched their records of his deposit.
He said, "I asked to see it because I felt uneasy about the 21 seconds. Should I trust the 11:17 a.m. I submitted or the police’s .21 seconds?" The officer allowed him to see the screen, and he saw...
Noom then said, "Muay, have you ever seen an airplane’s flight path? It flies in lines, but there are countless lines, more than a spider web. They are tiny dots. Then I asked, where is my account among those examined? I knew because I was coming here. They said, ‘No, there are many already.’"
I asked, ‘Where is mine?’ They clicked and scrolled. The image looked like tiny decimal points gradually zooming in until the screen filled with accounts (he gestures expanding). These were accounts of the Good Deeds Foundation. Then it showed the name of my account where I transferred 1 million baht—this was the money trail, the transfer route."
I asked for some education because I really wanted to know where this came from. I saw that there were three accounts: the Good Deeds Foundation account by Bhum Panadda, the Good Deeds Foundation charity account, and a recently opened supplementary account. These accounts had ongoing withdrawals and numerous incoming and outgoing money flows interwoven heavily."I asked how many lines there were—1,800,000 lines of money transfers from 900,000 accounts."Some people transferred repeatedly. Phut Apiwan transferred 800,000 baht, with amounts ranging from 19 baht to millions."
But what made me most uneasy, and what I want Bhum to clarify because I’m very curious, is that there were many instances of money being transferred from the Good Deeds Foundation back into the Good Deeds Foundation account under Bhum Panadda, and then transferred out to one individual, a man close to her. I won’t name him. Is that acceptable? Money transferred out to a man close to her."
I won’t say more; it’s not good. Just tell us what you bought with it, what you paid for. The police know everything. Muay asked if this matches what Phut Apiwan said about brand-name goods. Noom said yes, it matches, then sighed deeply.
Muay asked if, since a witness might become a victim, would Noom file a complaint? Noom said he’d prefer to leave that to the future. He joked it felt like he was on the "Hon Krasae" show being interviewed. We haven’t talked about this yet. He added that some say he’s just rambling and leading the witness, but I say that because they haven’t seen what I have seen."
"I’m the one who transferred money and was summoned by the police. They asked if I wanted to be a witness or a victim. I said I’d be a witness. That’s how I saw the evidence because I had to check all my details. That’s why I came out to say what I saw, but there are many more details I can’t share because it’s not appropriate. The police will announce it themselves."
"I’m speaking from my disappointment and the facts, which are not as I heard from Bhum. So I want Bhum to tell the truth—not necessarily to anyone else but to her lawyer. She must tell her lawyer everything because in the end, she will be uncomfortable. She can’t hide it. She must explain what she did because the money trail reveals everything."
He then showed a message from Ekaphop Saimai stating, “If everyone knew the truth that only 2% of the donated money actually helped people in need, and 98% was used personally, what would we say to them?” He added that the message didn’t specify who it referred to.
