Chonburi’s governor donated motorcycles, jet skis and safety equipment to the province’s police to bolster safety for tourists.
Gov. Pakarathorn Thienchai presented the 69 motorcycles, six jet skis, 720 helmets with attached cameras and other safety equipment to Provincial Police Region 3 June 30.
The “Rescue Patrol” motorcycle donation includes first-aid training for officers so they can fulfill their mission as qualified first responders in cases of accidents or illnesses involving residents and tourists.
The “Sudden Patrol” helmet donation features cameras that record an officer’s interactions with criminal suspects and the public to improve accountability and transparency.
The “Beach Patrol” jet ski donation also includes emergency-response equipment for use on the water in case of marine accidents involving tourists.
