Who knows some might become cave rescuers in their adulthood, they certainly would have learned a thing or two about cave diving.. Not too sure if it has been mentioned in all these pages but I do hope there are many parents/teachers/pupils that now think learning to swim is a good idea. How many kids drown every year ? 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NanLaew Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 (edited) 1 hour ago, Sheryl said: Meanwhile I really hope they have given the rescued boys their pad krapao mu by now!! Heard yesterday they were being limited to rice soup which seems excessive after a week of refeeding already. Sent from my SM-J701F using Thailand Forum - Thaivisa mobile app Khao tom... the Thai equivalent of chicken soup. It worked wonders for me when I was flattened by Dengue and seems to be the only choice when recuperating in a local hospital but pretty sure they will be getting their pad krapao mu soon enough. PS. Regarding the lads already in hospital, I read that, "One of the boys appeared to have lung inflammation, and another was admitted with a slowed heart rate but both are improving, said Dr. Jedsada Chokedamrongsook, the permanent secretary of the Thai Health Ministry."

How many kids drown every year ? Probably not as many that split their head after coming off motorbikes without a helmet. ...but I digress. This is the end of the weather window and I hope that by late afternoon and early evening today, all the remaining will be safe in hospital too. In earlier related treads, some raised concerns about why these extractions were a 'daylight only' event rather than a 24/7 deal. I have been told that although there's a large team of rescue divers and support for each +10 hour rescue mission, overnight there's probably twice as many replacing the exhausted daisy-chain of air bottles over a ~14 hour period, ready for the next day's rescue effort. Absolutely reeks of good, safe management and organization. Edited July 10, 2018 by NanLaew 9 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Governor have balls enough to involve foreign expertise in an early stage. I would apploud that whatever he have been before. What he have managed to do now is impressive! 8 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Balanced, tolerant but, when needed, bringing us errant posters back into line with a well deserved metaphorical "clip around the ear"! Good job and thanks!! Might thoughts spot on ! I worked with a NZ Sheryl in the late '60s and so I thought the Sheryl here was about the same , in her twenties and a bit rough round the edges. Not so , well done for keeping us up to date with proper news. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forethat Posted July 10, 2018 Share Posted July 10, 2018 4 hours ago, Dario said: Think just a little bit before you post anything: the kids have been in absolute dark for half a month. The umbrellas are there not for the press, but for the kids to protect their eyesight. The boys are given sunglasses to wear when the exit. You could even see this on live TV when one boy was exposed for a split second. They use the umbrellas to block out the view and prevent the identity of the rescued from being revealed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"'Faith and family' film crew on scene in Thailand By AAP11:53 Hollywood has arrived at the foothills of the mountain cave system in Thailand where one of the world's most daring rescue operations is underway.

New laws coming then? big fine and jail term if tresspass in caves? I agree with laws on certain stuff but if not careful they will turn Thailand to be infected with nanny state thinking. ie. when they cant think of sensible laws to pass they dream up all sorts of endless BS, thinking it makes them look good. no please Thailand, already happen in places like Australia i believe If I remember, there was recently a boat accident with dozens of tourists killed...maybe it would be better to "see this kind of accident never to happen again in Thailand"...just sayin'... 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
