BANGKOK: -- HEALTH authorities have advised people to be aware of their physical limits and avoid working out under the scorching sun after the sudden death of a state official who collapsed during an exercise session.

 

Pramern Krairos, 57, who headed Bangkok’s Phra Nakhon District Office, passed away at the Vajira Hospital yesterday morning. The senior official of the Bangkok Metropolitan Administration (BMA) was hospitalised on Wednesday after he collapsed 20 minutes into an exercise session. 

 

The session was held in response to Prime Minister General Prayut Chan-o-cha’s initiative to encourage officials to exercise to promote good health. 

 

While visiting flooded areas in Surat Thani yesterday, the PM ruled out any changes in the Wednesday weekly exercise schedule for state officials despite the tragic death of the district chief. However, he urged people nearing retirement age to be aware of their physical limits while taking part in exercises.

Like most governmental things in Thailand,  instead of people thinking that because they are in a position of power they know everything.it would be better to get professionals who know what they are doing in running classses/projects.

'The PM ruled out any changes in the Wednesday weekly exercise schedule for state officials despite the tragic death of the district chief.'

 

Doesn't that just say it all? Unbelievable.

 

Thailand - hub of irresponsibility, where saving face always supercedes saving lives.

Yet another example of the military persona coming out in the PM. Obey my orders or else! 

This is pretty much the way he runs the Country.

100,000 people work out weekly.  99,999 become healthier; 1 dies of a heart attack.

 

Message?  Beware of exercise!  It may be dangerous.  <head shake>
