In 1950, his father received an order to relocate to Petchaburi. Chaiyaboon had to be separated from the school owner since he was transferring to Aroonpradit School for the fourth grade. After living with his father for a little over a year, he moved to Sarasat Pithayalai School where a famous school stood in Banpong District, Rajchaburi Province. His father allowed him to stay with a kind-hearted and generous teacher, Samarn Sang-Aroon, until he completed the ninth grade. When he was thirteen, Chaiyaboon passed the competitive entrance examination to enroll in the tenth grade at Suankularb Wittayalai School in Bangkok. He was one of one hundred fifty students who passed the test from a pool of five hundred candidates. Since he was on his own most of the time, he learned how to economize and save. Therefore, this experience trained him to be vigorous, confident and responsible in this he differed from other boys who grew up in wealthy families. His childhood experiences prepared him for his important future tasks, and after long hard work he finally reached his dream.
