Bangkok, Thailand - February 2023 - On Feb. 11 at Mary Help of Christians Church in Bangkok, the installation ceremony of Fr. Anthony Boonlert Paneetatthayasai as the new Provincial Superior of the Salesian "St. Paul" Province of Thailand, Cambodia and Laos (THA) for the 2023-2029 term was held. The Eucharist was presided over by Msgr. Joseph Prathan Sridarunsil, SDB, Bishop of the Diocese of Suratthani, and concelebrated by, among others, Fr. Andrew Wong, Superior of the Indonesia Province, representing the Rector Major, Fr. Ángel Fernández Artime. In his homily, Msgr. Prathan Sridarunsil quoted a phrase by Fr. Egidio Viganò when he succeeded Fr. Ricceri as Rector Major, who said that the change of office is like a "sports relay." One of the athletes carries the baton to the other athlete to get him to the finish line. The baton is the Salesian spirit and each Provincial is responsible for leading the members of the Province to the finish line. "Today, in the Province of Thailand, we join the ceremony of passing the baton by which Fr. Dheparat Pitisant, after leading his second term for 6 years, passes the baton to Fr. Anthony Boonlert Paneetatthayasai, an energetic young Salesian to keep moving forward," the prelate said.
