Layla111 14 Posted October 23, 2019 Share Posted October 23, 2019 That must have been a very very big dive boat to carry 30 divers, divemasters/marshals, boat crew and all diving gear. The logistics of that would be more than a challenge. Sure they weren't Burmese passengers hope to get to India? Link to post Share on other sites

sunnyboy2018 4,222 Posted October 25, 2019 Share Posted October 25, 2019 The Indians dont mess about and have an efficient, well bloodied military unlike Thailand whose military only fight Thai citizens except last century when they declared war on the British. Link to post Share on other sites

RichardColeman 26,245 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Ah, a cunning Thai plan to declare war on India ? Well, now we know why Thais are buying armaments for the apocalypse Link to post Share on other sites
MRToMRT 1,775 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) It must have been a dive charter boat without permission. In Indian (Andaman) and Burmese waters (I have been to both) the military patrol vessels contact every vessel they see and make radio contact prior to onboarding for checking of permissions. I assume the Thais either ignored the radio or did not turn it on. On "Leo" island, my guess would be a mis-understanding on the Thai media or dive boat part in terms of language. I would guess they were near the Cinque islands in the south. Cinque - Singh (Thai for lion). Edited October 26, 2019 by MRToMRT Link to post Share on other sites
sfokevin 3,791 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 (edited) Aren’t there Thai submarines patrolling this area to prevent this?... Edited October 26, 2019 by sfokevin Link to post Share on other sites
ChipButty 15,482 Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Im afraid the Indian navy is far better equipped than the Thais they would just blow them out of the water my guess the dive boat ignored any warnings they got Link to post Share on other sites
