PHUKET: The Chief of the Phuket Lifeguard Service yesterday welcomed the handing over of the first-ever Thai-language lifesaving manual, drafted by experts from the Australian Life Saving Association (ASLA), and vowed to use the manual to train lifeguards serving at beaches along Phuket’s west coast.

 

Present at Loma Park, by Patong Beach, for the handing over of the manual yesterday (Aug 4) was Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.

 

“It is an honour for the Phuket Lifeguard Service to receive this manual and to receive Australian Foreign Minister Julie Bishop,” Phuket Lifeguard Chief Prathaiyuth Chuayuan told The Phuket News.

So Thais finally admitted they need to learn from other countries. Ozzies doing a great job.

If it saves one life it is worth it.

Everybody....everybody, including the Aussies, the Thais or the Americans, have things they can teach or can/must, learn from others...

Yes If I was on survivor I would want a Thai to tell me which plants or bugs were sap!

All good! just wish they wouldn't use  the term 'world's best practice' as  it's what aviation constant bleats and spins but actually refers to and basically  means absolute minimal safety standards.

 

I do believe in this case though it really is very good..Aussies and life guards go hand in hand.
