"Remembering the 2004 Phuket Tsunami: A Tragic Turning Point"

The 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami devastated Phuket on December 26, leaving indelible scars on survivors and reshaping Thailand's disaster preparedness. Triggered by a 9.1 magnitude earthquake, the tsunami caused widespread loss of life and destruction. In its aftermath, Thailand developed robust early warning systems and memorial sites, like the Wall of Remembrance and Ban Nam Khem Memorial Park, to honor victims and educate future generations. Annual ceremonies continue to pay tribute to the lives lost.
