He just did as several other times, and took the boys for somthing fun to do. Nobody could even imagine that such an incident would happen. I do hope that the parents of the children will stand up behind their coach and tell the world about the great man he is. Nonsense. The guy is a fool. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He took them in like anyone would. He saved them unlike most could. 10 days in the dark with no food and they are stl vocal to the divers. What a soccer team!!! World cup standard.

Popular Post smo Posted July 3, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 3, 2018 Even though Thaivisa board will be alive with the sound of "Coach's in the right/wrong?" debate for months to come - overflowing like a sceptic tank with soft and hard matters (ie moral indignation mixed with personal/nationality bashing) flushed out in equal measure from both sides - at the end of the day politics will win over morality in the guy's favor by these points: - a perfect Hollywood ending: death-defying cliffhanger finished by survival with no children lives/limbs lost, against terrifying odds. Leadership and unity prevail. Jubilation to families and nation. Global solidarity. Proof that Buddha exists...What more can a Thai ask for? - an "acceptable" cause: quotch took the kids inside the cave to pray to the football gods. Not only acceptable but very likely "making sense" to a populace that fervently believe in prayer. - a huge publicity boom: This incident puts Chiang Rai on the map. The caver/explorer/new-age communities worldwide plus 500 millions of passport-holder Chinese are gonna sit up and grab their spelunking gears. I myself have gone to the province a couple of times for family matters, didn't think much of the place. But after this, next time someone gives a holler, you betcha I'm gonna be there and Cave of Sleeping Beauty and Pattaya Beach will be first and second on my to-visit list. So why risk adding any unpleasantness (of possible retribution) to the tale? In the Western world where I come from a parent, let alone a coach, can face jailtime for endangering the life of a child. But this is Thailand, quotch will be honored as hero and beyond whether us farangs like it or not. In the same news channels as of last week when a few workers got injured from being electrocuted then later pronounced as having mild stomach ailment, any suggestions of criminal charges against the coach will be pumped out faster than flood waters from the caves. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the most relevant thing. Some caves flood, some don't. Learn something about caves before embarrassing yourself.

Im personally enjoying the vomit inducing "Monk in the purple hat story of 1or2 days all will be fine" BS and the eagerness of the Thais to lap up this crap, sure the funds will flow into that temple now from the gullible.

shaurene Posted July 4, 2018 Share Posted July 4, 2018 The Thai ministerials B/S starting. The Governor should be made responsible. If flooding is taking place the cave officials should know and inform the higher-up and close the cave. NO ENTRY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
