A religious ceremony was held this morning (Monday) in front of Tham Luang cave, in the Tham Luang-Khun Nam Nang Non National Park in Chiang Mai, to commemorate the 5th anniversary of the dramatic search and rescue mission for 12 members of the “Wild Boar” school footballer team and their coach, trapped inside the flooded cave from June 23rd toJuly 10th, 2018.

 

The ceremony was also held to pay respects to two members of the Thai Navy SEAL team who died during the rescue, Saman Kunan and Beirut Pakbara, the late Chiang Rai governor Narongsak Osottanakorn, who supervised the search and rescue operations, and Duangphet Promthep, one of the footballers who died in February this year while studying in Britain.

 

The sombre ceremony was attended by 39 Buddhist monks and residents of Mae Sai district, as well as some members of the “Wild Boar” football team.

Tham Luang-Khun Nam Nang Non National Park in Chiang Mai,

It is in Chiang Rai Province, not that far from Mae Sai and the Burmese border.

Known as "Dom" , the captain of the Wild Boars FC, the UK Coroners Court verdict into his sad death is still unknown. At the original hearing in Leicester City and South Leicestershire Coroners Court back in February 2023, the verdict was adjourned until July 6 2023. Here we are at the 14th July 2023 and no verdict to date. I have been monitoring the local UK media with no succes to date. It is believed he died in hospital from a non-suspicious head injury, but we will have to wait and see!
