At the Kids Club of JW Marriott Phuket Resort & Spa, the Foundation has opened its “Turtle Corner” which will be used as an educational corner covering the Turtle Discovery program including A turtle's life cycle, Food that turtles eat, dangers that turtles face and how we can help the turtles. The aim of each 30 minute activities-based lesson is to give children a better idea of the lives of turtles and the role we play to help them not to become extinct. The Turtle Discovery program will officially commence on the 5th of February 2009.

“Last year in Puerto Princesa, Palawan, I walked 8 kilometers of an island coastline and found just three small pieces of rubbish that didn’t fill the palm of my hand,” says Gray. “If a small town in the Philippines can eliminate marine rubbish, why can’t we do the same in Thailand?

“We won’t clean up the Oceans in five days with 80 PSU-Phuket students. But after 20 years of solo collecting, “When I’m 64” is a good time to create long-term awareness. Now, Thailand’s future generation can spread the message instead of just one crazy Farang.”
