The delivery event was filled with warmth. Wang Chuanfu, the chairman of BYD Group, personally delivered the new car to Ussa Samemkam. It is reported that Ussa Samemkam has been experiencing discomfort in her lower back recently, but despite this, she insisted on attending the ceremony upon learning that Wang Chuanfu was present. She also wrote a personal message, using a classic line from a film to express her appreciation for BYD.

“The movie says ‘Siam has no spring, but you are my spring’. Now, BYD cars can be seen everywhere in Thailand, and Thai consumers can feel this sincerity. BYD brings a new green transportation revolution to everyone. This is the spring that belongs to Thailand. When my back is better, I will definitely try this car myself.”

《A Letter to Ah Ma》 revolves around the “overseas remittance” narrative. In Hokkien dialect, "bat" means "letter," and "Yin-shun he-fong", which combines official letters of credit and money transfer documents in a single package, is known as "overseas remittance", serving as the primary mode of communication between overseas Chinese and their hometowns during the last century.

It is reported that the film will be released globally in Thailand on August 6. BYD has secured the exclusive naming rights for this film in Thailand. Previously, the film ‘Love Letters to My Grandma’ has sparked a wave of interest in viewing in places like Singapore and Malaysia.

According to a report by People's Net, Ke Yubin, General Manager of BYD Automotive (Thailand) Co., Ltd., stated that as the Thai factory marks its second anniversary, it has created more than 5,000 job opportunities. Employees from Thailand account for about 93% of these jobs, and the proportion of local parts procurement reaches 50%. This continues to drive the coordinated development of Thailand's automotive industry, contributing to the sustainable growth of Thailand's new energy vehicle industry.
