KOH SAMUI: -- A Belgian tourist was rescued by a fishing boat after drifting in the water for over five hours between Koh Samui and Koh Phangan yesterday.
Brigit Haeceman, a 26-year-old veterinarian, was rescued by a Rayong fishing boat after she was found waving for help in the sea about 6pm yesterday.
Exhausted Brigit was given dry clothes, bread and an Ovaltine drink by Nantapong Khacha-art, the boat’s owner, who also contacted the Samui authorities. Nantapong took her to the hospital when the boat reached Nathon Pier.
