PHUKET:-- A Swiss man was pronounced dead yesterday after he was pulled from the water during a day trip to Koh Phak Bia, just four kilometres from the world-famous Koh Hong, in Phang Nga Bay.

 

Officers from Than Bok Khorani National Park and the National Park Protection Unit at Koh Hong responded to call for assistance by the tour boat after the 53-year-old had reportedly “drowned”.

 

The national park officers arrived with a medical team who provided CPR while rushing the man back to the mainland.

The sea seems to be nearly as dangerous as the roads in Thailand,

quite a few tourists seem to end up drowning, RIP Swiss guy.
