Dr. Pairat Decharin (Thai: ไพรัตน์ เดชะรินทร์; RTGS: Phairat Decharin, died 26 May 1991) was the governor of Chiang Mai Province, Thailand. He died in the crash of Lauda Air Flight 004 on 26 May 1991, with his wife.[3] Charles S. Ahlgren, the former U.S. consul general to Chiang Mai, said "That accident not only took their lives and that of many of Chiang Mai's leaders, but dealt a blow to many development and planning activities in the town."[4]
