Random drug tests would be appropriate. Also yearly boat inspections if used in tourism. 🙏

"new benchmarks" 

Like what? Anything specific as to any detailed agenda or expectations seems missing. 

A self promoting business event and lots of free advertising buy this company. init.

The next marine tragedy waiting to happen: Speed boats pulling parachutes operate dangerously close to swimmers near the shore at Karon Beach. Shouldn't these boats (i) operate at a safe distance from the shore - say 300 metres, (ii) be fitted with propeller guards and (iii) have at least two crew, one to look forward for swimmers and another to watch the parachute?  A swimmer snorkelling with his head underwater is at great risk.
