Yoshi Poshala was the second Lampang child searching for father. He now lives with his maternal grandmother after his parents had divorced. Yoshi's mother remarried and gave him some money but his father, Kenji Aoki, returned to Japan and never kept in touch.
Yoshi said, "I just want to see my dad and ask him to support my studies."
Pinchai Pinkeaw, a Social Development and Human Security official in Lampnag, said that he would forward the case to the ministry in Bangkok.
