Siam Rath reported that officials from four Thai authorities and locals comprising 30 people were looking for a 65 year old man called Chaiwat Saikaew who went missing in the area of Khao Tham Kop.

 

He is a local man in Palm Pattana sub-district of Satun, southern Thailand. 

 

It's a wildlife preservation area and relatives are very concerned after Chaiwat had been missing for a week. 

 

Sawitri, the missing man's daughter, said her father knows his way around the area but he has health problems associated with the elderly such as diabetes and high blood pressure.

 

He had gone foraging with a friend but they became separated. 

 

The friend had called out to no avail then left the mountain and told relatives. 

 

Of concern is that the missing man had complained of headaches to his wife before he went missing. 

 

Officials pointed to the area where the man is believed to have gone as plans for the recue were formulated.

Maybe time to bring in the services of a canine tracker team, searching on foot and just looking is like trying to find a needle in a proverbial haystack.
