A man has drowned in a lagoon while he was trying to catch fish inside an animal sanctuary area adjacent to a Krabi temple. Mueang Krabi Police were notified of the incident at the Kowaram Temple in Mueang Krabi District at 5.30pm yesterday.

 

Police and emergency responders arrived at the temple lagoon and joined in the search for the missing man. Rescue workers took about one hour to find the man. He was identified as 50 year old Yothin Boonkong.

    thai version of "the old man and the sea"

    So sad ..... a man dies while looking for food to feed his family or make a little money.

    I guess he can take some comfort in the fact that if he was a farang who drowned we would be up to five pages of RIP... Too young to die comments.

    Because in this case it is deserved.

    Do you think the smartarse comments by the halfwits are funny?

    Some man has died...... Should he be subject to ridicule because he is Thai?

    Morale of the story: If you want to go fishing learn to swim.

    RIP fisherman
