Urgent reminder!, Consulate General of the Chinese Embassy in Thailand
According to the WeChat official account of "Consular Direct Train", Thailand has entered the rainy season, with frequent rainfall, slippery roads, traffic accidents, changeable sea weather, complex sea conditions, and high wading safety risks. The Chinese Embassy in Thailand reminds compatriots to raise their risk awareness and ensure personal safety when traveling in Thailand during the rainy season.
Rainfall leads to slippery roads, waterlogging, complex driving conditions, steep slopes and numerous bends in mountainous areas, making traffic accidents more likely to occur during the rainy season. Renting a vehicle, especially a motorcycle, poses a high risk. It is recommended to choose local public transportation or charter a car for travel.
Mountain areas are prone to flash floods during the rainy season, and projects such as outdoor hiking, jungle flying, and cave exploration pose extremely high risks. Please make sure to assess your own condition and potential risks in advance and choose carefully.
During the rainy season, the sea areas have high winds and waves, and the sea conditions are complex. Water related projects such as swimming, diving, or going out to sea face certain safety risks. When a red warning flag is placed on the beach, it indicates that the sea conditions are dangerous and it is prohibited to enter the water. Please be sure to understand the local sea conditions and weather warnings in advance to ensure safety.
Please take safety precautions when participating in water related activities. When riding on speedboats or yachts, be sure to wear a life jacket throughout the journey. Do not go into the sea on an empty stomach, after a full meal, under the influence of alcohol, or when physically fatigued. Participating in high-risk water projects such as snorkeling should follow the guidance of professionals and take strict protective measures in accordance with safety requirements.
