Continuing his international tour, Tim Cook has landed in Thailand, taking in the sights of the Chao Phraya River and Wat Arun, as well as visiting schoolchildren learning from Apple’s Everyone, Can Create curriculum, and speaking to WWDC scholarship winners.
On the latest leg of his trip, following visits to Japan and Singapore, Cook has moved on to Thailand. Just as with his other international journeys, Cook is spending time promoting areas of interest for the iPhone maker while visiting picturesque locations famous in the country.
His first tweet from the country revealed he spent his morning on the Chao Phraya River on the way to Wat Arun. Shown kneeling at a temple, Cook thanks Instagram user Jirasak Panpiansin for showing him around the venue.
Cook then moved on to visit Satit-Chula in Bangkok, where he spoke with educators and students that are using iPads to learn about the solar system. The school is doing so by taking advantage of Apple’s Everyone Can Create program, which helps educators integrate elements such as music, drawing, and photography into their lessons.
Beyond impressed with the students at Satit-Chula in Bangkok who are using Everyone Can Create to learn the science behind how day turns to night. Here’s to reaching for the stars! ⭐️ pic.twitter.com/i1sG9J4L8O

It made my heart sing to spend time with Thailand’s WWDC scholarship winners Kiratijuta and Patcharapon. Amazing to see how your careers have taken off since WWDC! And great to meet studygrammer Peanut Butter who brings intricate Thai handwriting to life on iPad. Stunning! pic.twitter.com/gAqcAgS5wj
