The search for a second passenger, missing after a tour boat was struck by a waterspout and capsized, ended last evening (Sunday) when his body was recovered from the water near a pier, behind Pak Lad Temple in Bang Tabun Bay in Ban Laem district of Phetchaburi province.

 

The remains, identified as those of “Kritanat”, a resident of Ban Laem district, were taken to King Mongkut Memorial Hospital for autopsy. The other victim has been identified as “Chanin”, a Bangkok resident.

 

Phetchaburi governor Natthachai Nampoonsuksant said last night that the relatives of the two people who drowned will receive 29,700 baht each in compensation.

Wow.

I will send a wreath in the shape of a lifejacket. Well, it's what he would have wanted.
