Photo: Eakkapop Thongtub PHUKET: -- Patong Mayor Chalermluck Kebsup is calling for health forms to be completed before allowing any persons to take parasail rides at Phuket’s most-popular tourist beach. The news came yesterday (Sept 6) after the Patong Parasail Club, representing all parasail operators on Patong Beach, submitted its version of self-imposed safety guidelines for all parasail operators in Patong to follow. The operators agreed to draft a list of guidelines after the news of a Chinese tourist allowing his infant daughter to be lifted screaming into the sky on a parasail ride at Patong made international headlines on Aug 16.

steelepulse Posted September 7, 2017 Share Posted September 7, 2017 10. Parasail operators must be polite and not fight with customers. Besides the above rule ( one of many that seem laughable) I had no idea that these clowns had not only compulsory insurance but also additional coverage.
