On September 19th, Oceans For All Foundation had the honour of hosting His Excellency M. Jean-Claude Poimboeuf, French Ambassador to Thailand, and his wife Mariko Poimboeuf, along with Gulu Lalvani, founder of the Royal Phuket Marina<\/a>, and other members of the French Embassy, for a tour of the Licence To Clean (LTC) project. The group boarded the LTC-003 Coastal Cleaner Catamaran stationed at Royal Phuket Marina (RPM), where Oceans For All co-founder Thibault Salaun provided insights into the daily operations of the vessel. Salaun explained how LTC-003 and other catamarans in Phuket and Bangkok contribute to keeping the waters clean, collecting trash, and promoting sustainable marine practices.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The French Embassy has been a long-standing supporter of Oceans For All\u2019s mission, playing a crucial role in the foundation\u2019s growth and impact. Additionally, Gulu Lalvani and RPM, Asia\u2019s first and only carbon-neutral marina, have provided unwavering support by hosting LTC-003 and raising awareness of eco-friendly tourism initiatives.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Ambassador\u2019s visit also extended to the Pullman Phuket Panwa Beach Resort<\/a>, where the group participated in a Re-Sharking activity. Oceans For All’s team guided the group through the Shark Nursery exhibition before releasing a juvenile bamboo shark into the sea. The Pullman Resort has been a key partner in the Shark Nursery project, which runs educational programs about marine conservation. The second nursery is based at JW Marriott Khao Lak.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
