PHUKET: -- Phuket honorary consuls on Wednesday pushed for better access and resources for providing support to foreigners during emergency situations at Phuket International Airport.

“We have requested a contact point, as well as a contact person, who will – in case of an emergency – allow us to quickly get all the necessary information and provide whatever services we can,” said Pornphan Sittichaivijit, the Royal Norwegian honorary consul to Phuket.

There is already an emergency contact point in Terminal One where relatives, country representatives and the media can wait. Such a room has yet to be set up in the new terminal, explained Wing Commander Lorrat Manimont, vice president for the Aerodrome Standards and Occupational Health Department.
