The little hero of the great Krabi flood
An 11 year-old boy has emerged as a hero after he rescued a very young sibling from raging torrents of floodwater two days ago.
“Because water gushed down so fast and furiously, we were swept away. Then, I saw my brother trapped between two small branches of a tree,” Jakkrit Chusri recounted. “I myself fell down and tried my best to stand up again.”
Displaying an amazing sense of composure, Jakkrit then waded through the floodwater to reach his twoyearold brother and carried him on the back.
