As a well-known tourist attraction in China, many people like Phuket very much, and there are not a few people who go to visit it every year. However, there is no rescue team in supuket, so for Chinese tourists who want to visit, we must do a good job in prevention!
More than 90 drowning rescue workers in Phuket announced their departure Thursday because of insufficient budget to support the normal operation of the rescue team.
In recent years, Chinese tourists drown frequently in Phuket. The departure of local beach rescue team members may have a greater impact on the safety of tourists to Phuket. After the rescue team leaves, there will be no more lifeguards on the beach of Phuket, and only the "red flag" warning will be made on the beach. The risk factor of tourists who swim in the sea illegally will increase.
According to Thailand's xingsiam daily, blathayu, chairman of the Maritime Rescue Association of Phuket Prefecture, said: 'after assessing the system wide rescue fund management structure, we regret to announce that the work contracts of 90 rescuers will not be renewed, and there will be no more rescue organizations in Phuket. In terms of the remaining funds of THB 19.8 million, we can only invest more warning signs to remind tourists of safety. '
