HOT Magazine April 15, 2015 | Page 5

Dear Reader, As I’ve mentioned many times before, one of the great things about living in a resort city like Hua Hin is that there are so many festival’s and fun activities to partake in. One of my favorites, the Asian Beach Polo Championships, is set to take place on the 25th of this month. Also known as the Princess Pa’s Cup, this is the only Asian Polo event to be held on a beach. Read how you can join this daytime and nighttime thrilling event on page 26. Last November we held our very first Red Carpet Wine and Charity Gala Dinner. During the evening we crowned Miss Hua Hin C.D.L. and her Court. C.D.L. stands for Charity and Dog Lover. One of our passions is helping under privileged children as well as Hua Hin’s homeless and helpless street dog population. Miss Hua Hin C.D.L. and her entourage are spending their year assisting us in our charitable efforts. We thank and acknowledge their work by featuring them on this month’s cover and on follow up pages starting on page 6. Another great annual event recently held was the Cha Am International Kite Festival. Those who came were treated to some great sights including a whale kite that was 3 meters high and ten meters long. View the fun on page 16. Next, we introduce you to Khun Nunthinee Tanner. Khun Nunthinee is a multi-faceted successful business woman, art collector, socialite and Thailand’s first female polo player. Read about her passion for polo and how she’s used it to raise money for worthy charitable causes on page 22. Who says only women can participate in beauty pageants? On page 66 we take you to Bangkok for the second annual Mr. Global Competition where hunky men from 21 different countries competed against one another to vie for the highly prized title. On page 62 we take you to the catwalk to view the 2015 Spring / Summer collection of Her Royal Highness Princess Sirivannavari Nariratana which she markets under her SIRIVANNAVARI brand. Finally, our HOT Hua Hin Property feature takes us to the Veyla Beachfront residences in Cha Am. Their last beachfront development in Hua Hin won them a highly coveted Thailand Property Award and their newest project is just as stunning. Check out the home you’ll want to move into on page 80. Thank you for picking us up and we hope you enjoy the read. Tanya Siri Vijitsomphong HOT Magazine [email protected] Luxury Living & Exclusive Lifestyle Edited and published by HOT Hua Hin Co. Ltd.
