He's the ideal person -- understands all the medical issues related to diving, including the risk of panicking, etc. Plus he's an anaesthetist and if anyone is best placed to help with a judicious bit of medication to help the boys stay calm  on their journeys, it's him. 

His presence there certainly suggests some level of sedation was on the table, wonder if they decided to use it. 

 

Also curious - is he staying in there for the duration of the rescue with the kids? Ditto the British divers who were taking care of the innermost section of the caves?

The usual work permit question post has been removed as it led to personal attacks, flames and bickering.

 

Please do not post in caps as it is poor netiquette and considered shouting, thank you.

Some one has raised the tsunami response and the requirement for volunteers to get work permits.  After the tsunami people turned up from every where uninvited to give help that was either nto required or too many for the operation organisers to manage.  This happens at every disaster and tends to be more of a hinderance than a help.  For one the country was in turmoil and for people to turn up require feeding and accomodation hampers the efforts of appropriately trained personal.
It is the standard practice for Governments to offer help, ask what is required and then wait to be asked for assistance.  This stops the untrained personal from coming and giving help they think they can provide.  As an example how many people on TV have offered their opinions on what should or should not happen and they are not even on site and yet have better knowledge than the Thai Teams who are being assisted by international teams invited by the Thai Government.
Actually with some of the rubbish comments being made I am ashamed to be referred to as a farang in Thailand.  I do speak from experience having been involved in the Australian continent that went to the Bali Bombings, the Tsunami, Cyclone in the Phillipines, floods in Pakistan, earth quakes in New Zealand and many more!!!!

With ref to #30 - this subject has been closed.

The tsunami happened 26th December 2004, they only really started making a noise about work permits a few weeks later, around February 2005.
