Dedicated team members quick to spring into action in Thailand

It took just a day after hearing news that 12 boys and their soccer coach had been reported missing in Thailand for the seven Chinese rescuers to arrive in the northern Thai city of Chiang Rai.

On June 23, reports said the boys, age 11 to 16, and their 25-year-old coach had disappeared after a match. They were thought to have been trapped in the flooded Tham Luang Nan Non cave in Chiang Rai, a popular tourist destination.

Wang Ke, a 45-year-old Beijing man who is also founder of the non-governmental rescue organization the Peaceland Foundation, heard the news.
