We will be welcoming speakers on two topics. The first topic, Dental Care for Expats, will be presented by Dr. Nawapol (Mong) Wuttikorn and Dr. Chawanan (Ploy) Chaiyami, two highly trained dental professionals whose careers began together and have continued to grow in partnership across the Pattaya and Chonburi region. The second topic, Small Acts, Big Difference — Making Pattaya a Better Place Together, presented by Alexander Zdorenko and Yana Lee, two dedicated community volunteers whose work is helping make Pattaya cleaner, kinder and more connected. They will share the story behind “Clear Mind Pattaya,” a growing grassroots initiative built on one simple belief: positive change begins with small actions.

----------------------- 

Dr. Mong grew up inside Pong Nam Ron Hospital in Chanthaburi, where his mother worked as a dental nurse. The dental clinic became one of his childhood playgrounds, and the dentists who looked after him helped spark an early fascination with the profession.

Years later, he met Dr. Ploy when the two became lab partners at Western University. They graduated together in 2016, each earning a Doctor of Dental Surgery (DDS) degree.

Today, both doctors operate multiple clinics throughout Pattaya and Chonburi—including the brandnew South Pattaya Dental Clinic, which they run jointly. Their professional training includes Orthodontics, Dental Implantology, and for Dr. Ploy, additional certifications in Periodontics and Prosthodontics. They have also collaborated on developing a toothpaste brand and other dentalcare projects. With extensive experience treating expat senior citizens, they bring a deep understanding of the unique dental challenges faced by older adults in Thailand.

In their presentation, they will focus on practical, ageappropriate dental care for seniors. They will explain common dental problems experienced later in life, offer guidance on maintaining good oral hygiene, and introduce new techniques and treatment strategies now available in modern dentistry. With more than a decade of handson experience each, they are wellequipped to answer questions and help Pattaya expats make informed decisions about their oral health.

----------------------- 

Alexander has lived in Pattaya for around four years and works professionally as a travel guide in New Zealand and Australia. His love for nature, travel and Thailand inspired him to get involved in charitable and environmental projects. Together with Yana and Artur, he helped develop “Clear Mind Pattaya,” a community that supports children, animals and the environment. 

Clear Mind also collaborates with partner organizations, including The Good News PlanetCleanup, whose founder, Chem Perez, previously spoke to the PCEC about his environmental work. Today, more than 100 members have joined the Clear Mind community — and the number continues to grow.

Yana has lived in Thailand for the past four years. Her passion for helping others began in Russia, where she rescued street animals with her father and assisted people in need by collecting clothing. In Pattaya, she became involved in beach cleanups and later began volunteering with children at a local center. She is now one of the organizers of Clear Mind Pattaya and believes that even small acts of kindness can make a real difference.

Clear Mind Pattaya brings people together to support children, help animal shelters, protect the environment and strengthen community connections. Their activities include: 

- Organizing special outings and experiences for children from local care centers 

- Supporting animal shelters and rescue efforts 

- Participating in beach cleanups and environmental projects 

- Collaborating with The Good News PlanetCleanup on shared initiatives 

Their message is simple and powerful:  You don’t need to be young, wealthy or have lots of free time to help. You can volunteer for an hour, sponsor a child’s experience, support an animal shelter, bring a friend along — or simply offer encouragement and experience.

During their presentation, Alexander and Yana will share stories from their work, introduce some of the people and organizations they collaborate with, and show how small individual contributions can grow into meaningful community projects.
