00:00Nowadays people saying, oh you are transgender, okay you become you want to become a prime minister. It's gonna be funny.
00:19People do think that Thailand is some sort of paradise for trans people, but actually it's not.
00:30In many ways, Thailand is actually quite an intolerant place.
01:30Transgender is not a funny or different group of people.
01:57We try to show the society our good point of view.
02:04We hope that transgender people will be accepted by the society 100% in the future.
02:28Even if I cannot achieve or I cannot become Prime Minister, it's already fine.
02:36Because I am the first one who dare enough to announce, to allow myself to tell the society that,
02:46hey, we can do it.
02:50We are not saying we are better than male or female.
02:54We just want to say that we are equal.
