About "Young Firefighters" : Tom Kanathat Chantrsiri, President of FARA, says that hopefully the fire safety message may be spread wider quite soon. "When some of these older members ( Young Firefighters )  go to university, FARA will be funding them to start their own safety clubs. We are planting an oak tree, taking the long term view."
