Thailand's Thongchai in floods appeal

The Thai Golf Championship is donating money raised from ticket sales to help support flood relief.

An estimated US$5 million has reportedly been added to the Thai event by state-owned companies, and world No 2 Rory McIlroy, world No 3 Lee Westwood and Major winner Darren Clarke have all signed up.

Thailand's top golfer Thongchai Jaidee on Thursday defended the money being used to lure star players to next week's Thai Golf Championships,不锈钢生丝, saying the event can help raise funds for victims of recent flooding.

Assembly

Assembling the Hesco Bastion entails unfolding it and (if available) using a front end loader to fill it with sand, dirt or gravel. The placement of the barrier is generally very similar to the placement of a sandbag barrier or earth berm except that room must generally be allowed for the equipment used to fill the barrier. The main advantage of Military Barrier, strongly contributing to their popularity with troops and flood fighters, is the quick and easy setup. Previously, people had to fill sandbags, a slow undertaking, with one worker filling about 20 sandbags per hour. Workers using Military Barrier and a front end loader can do ten times the work of those using sandbags.

The Hesco Barrier come in a variety of sizes. Most of the barriers can also be stacked, and they are shipped collapsed in compact sets. Example dimensions of typical configurations are 46" x 36" x 32 (1.4m x 1.1m x 9.8m) to 7 x 5 x 100 (2.1m x 1.5m x 30m).

A new system of Hesco Bastion developed specially for military use is deployed from a container,Bridge Protection Systems, which is dragged along the line of ground where the barrier is to be formed, unfolding up to several hundred meters of barrier in minutes, ready for filling with soil by a backhoe.

The QIAOSHI's Military Barriers or Hesco Bastions is a modern gabion used for flood control and military fortification.

"Without the sponsors' money we don't have a tournament and then players don't get to play. These sorts of events promote sports but they also can help charities which is what my country needs right now."

Thongchai was speaking a day after countryman Thaworn Wiratchant accused the Thai government of wasting money on luring big-name international players to the inaugural event in Bangkok next week.

"I think this event can bring attention to Thailand and by having these stars here we can help a lot of the charities raise money," said Thongchai on the sidelines of the UBS Hong Kong Open.

"While it might be a good idea to show the rest of the world that Thailand is back to normal,Plain steel wire, I think the money could have been used to helping the thousands of people affected by the floods," Thaworn said.
