Yohn illegally immigrated from Burma 2 years ago. His mother left when he was two and his father is addicted to drugs, so his aunt decided to send Yohn to live with his sisters in Thailand. He's the youngest of 8 siblings. Church members help to take care of the family, but it's not enough, as there are many expenses. Yohn is still in the process of getting paperwork and doesn't have rights as other Thai children. Yohn is an active, talkative, yet responsible and obedient boy. He likes to help others and takes care of church facility by cleaning, turning lights off, taking garbage out, and putting the chairs up before service starts, and he does it joyfully. He likes to play and talk with others, study at school, read, and do his homework. His favorite subject is P.E., and he loves running. He is quite competitive and in the future wants to be a race car driver.
