Pumwit Pootkiao
Dr. Pumwit Pootkiao, a Thai psychiatrist, played a crucial role in the rehabilitation of five Thai hostages released after 482 days in Gaza. He emphasized the cultural differences in emotional expression between Thai and Western societies, noting that the hostages often responded to their trauma with phrases like 'I'm fine' despite underlying pain. He believes that the long-term psychological effects of their ordeal may only emerge after their initial treatment phase.
