Jokhani Family

Jay was born in Thailand but grew up in Canada. Joy is Thai, and both their daughters, Jenna and Jessie, were born in Thailand. Jay and Joy work with and are partners in S.K.J. Industries, a Canadian-Thai company manufacturing Plastic products. Jenna has been at Regent's Bangkok for 4 year; she joined in Pre-nursery and next year will be in Year 2. Jessie is only 3 months old, so it will be some time before she starts school.

Most of Jay's family on his father's side were from the UK but grew up in Uganda, while on his mother's side were from India but born and grew up here in Thailand (3rd generation Thai). Joy’s family is Thai with a minor mix of Chinese from her father’s side she was born and raised in Bangkok, a true blue Bangkokian.



With all the nationalities in the family, Jenna and Jessie are very UN. Being exposed to so many different religions and cultures in the family really gives the benefit of cultivating total understanding of how everyone can get along in spite of innate differences.
