Thailand: Young soccer players in cave
2 July 2018 By Abiodun Giwa
There is an effort to save 12 young soccer players and their coach caught underground in a cave at a national park in Chiang Rai,Thailand.
Reports show that the players and the coach have been in the cave for about nine days and they have been presumed lost before the discovery that they are alive. And without food for nine days.
Authorities in Thailand have reportedly succeeded in getting four army officers into the cave with necessary medication and gas for the embattled players. But there is also reports about imminent danger to the players' lives if there should be any rainfall, capable of worsening their situation or attempt to get them out.
The Washington Post reported: "The boys, ages 11 to 16, and their coach, 25, disappeared June 23 after entering the flooded Tham Luang Nang Non cave in a national park in Chiang Rai."
Global Pentorch research amid reports to get the players and coach out from the cave and a question being asked by curious observers about the how players got into the cave's led to the Washington Post report about how the players and the coach got into the cave. People are saying that soccer is a game played on the surface ground and not in the cave, with a quick reference to the 21st World Cup in Russia.
Even with the Washington Post's report about how the players and coach got into the cave, a question still remains unanswered whether there is no instruction at the national park in Chiang Rai about how to access the cave and the danger involved about accessing the cave against regulations.
It is a fair question to guard against future occurrences of endangering young people's lives, as Thailand authorities are working toward saving the lives of young players and their coach. Just as it is expected that detailed reports of the carelessness that may have led to the players and coach getting trapped be made, and officials culpable for the development be punished, for causing these kids, their parents and the society such harrowing experience.
These days, children come home and tell parents they are going on a trip from school, some following regulations and others against regulations. No parent will want any child to embark on a dangerous trip such as these Thailand children are going through. It is why regulations and their enforcements in schools and public places of interest are of utmost importance.
