Australia welcomed another Royal Australian Navy warship to Thailand. The Guided Missile Frigate HMAS Toowoomba stopped in Phuket for some respite and engagement activities with the Royal Thai Navy’s 3rd Naval Area Command following its participation in the multi-national exercise ‘La Perouse’ conducted in the bay of Bengal.
In addition to seeing the beautiful sights of Phuket, the crew found time to play some football against a formidable RTN team, and also helped the local Patong community through an Australian Government project which supports the foundation ‘Phuket Has Been Good To Us’ at the Baan Kalim School.
