Wild Boars boys thank the world for teaching them ‘love’

 

 

The 12 Wild Boars soccer players and their coach who captured the world’s attention last month while stranded in the Tham Luang cave in Chiang Rai said they wanted to thank for the world for the outpouring of love and support that went into rescuing them from a harrowing subterranean ordeal.

 

“We learned about love by receiving love from everyone,” said one of the boys, Adul Samon, 14, in an exclusive interview with ABC news.

 

ABC news reported that the interview, which took place at Wat Phra Doi Wao in Mae Sai District recently, was arranged through the Thai government, on the condition that the topics be reviewed by child psychologists and other specialists caring for the team in order to protect the young boys’ well-being.

 

“I would like to thank everybody. You all love me and I love everyone,” said Adul. “I feel like people around the world are my parents.”

certainly a life changing experience for these boys, let us hope that the experts, government, media, do-gooders etc don't screw it all up for them.

It seems these lads have been enlightened about the caring world outside Thailand and amazed that there are farang that put their own lives in serious danger to rescue other for free.i like the one who said he's learned to be more patient,he might live to a ripe old age with that attitude.lets not forget the  navy seal who unfortunately lost his life saving others.RIP sir.

RIP Saman Kunan 

Enough already, leave them alone.

Glad the kids are doing great,  but let's face it,  the government/local media milking this story to death is turning it all into a chronic case of Wild BORES. ?

Local media? Must be ABC Chiangrai then.

No way the Thai government or hierarchy will leave this alone, they will milk it for all they can get.

 

They don't give a damn about those kids, only the free publicity and the chance to ' jockey ' for positions in the future.
