The importance of education for Down syndrome children was covered during an online forum marking World Down Syndrome Day organised by the Department of Mental Health's Rajanukul Institute on Monday.
Participants discussed issues faced by Down syndrome children. There was also a music performance and magic show staged by the children.
Phaninee Thammatatpimol, the parent of a Down syndrome child, told the forum that her child can play various musical instruments, especially the khim -- a Thai dulcimer.
