Jonathan Fairfield Posted July 7, 2018 Share Posted July 7, 2018 Israeli ambassador visits Tham Luang By The Nation The Israeli ambassador to Thailand on Saturday morning visited Tham Luang cave in Chiang Rai to explore the possibilities of helping in reduce the water level in the cave. Meir Slomo visited the cave, where 2 youths and their football coach have been trapped since June 23, at 9.30am. Slomo said he had been invited by the Thai government to inspect how to provide assistance in the on-going efforts to drain floodwaters from the cave because Israel has expertise in water management and has provided support to the Thai government several times in water management. The ambassador said he will coordinate with the Thai team there. The ambassador held talks with Phayao Governor Narongsak Osotanakorn who has been in charge of the rescue operation since he was Chiang Rai governor. He just been transferred to Phayao but continues to head the operation.

Popular Post Jingthing Posted July 7, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2018 I heard before that the Israelis had already assisted with communications technology expertise. Israeli international assistance is usually associated with earthquake relief rather than flooded caves. It's very positive that there is international support from many countries. including Israel. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was invited there to assess the needs Israel might be able to help answer. Representatives of the embassies of the USA, and UK have been to the cave too. These officials know what their exportable technology is and can see if they have what Thailand can use. Remember, that that the priority of all embassies today is to promote trade, so the officials are up to date with their national capabilities.

The severity of the problem has been apparent for about two weeks. He couldn't just show up uninvited. He had to be invited, and in fairness to the Thais, they have been overwhelmed. The last thing they need are distractions. Look at the French rescuers. They are standing by and will only come if requested to do so. it's not because the French are mean, but they need an invite. It's like this everywhere. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jingthing Posted July 8, 2018 Share Posted July 8, 2018 Couldn't he have come a little sooner, though? The severity of the problem has been apparent for about two weeks.I had read a number of days ago that there already was Israeli assistance there in the form of communications tech. Also keep in mind that today we are hearing rescue dives are happening now but yesterday there was still discussion about the option of them staying in place for months. So perhaps you have a valid point and perhaps you don't. Sent from my Lenovo A7020a48 using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
