Appropriate warning signs? This is Thailand. You'd have to put signage at the border.
Yay! Now put a warning sign at the entrance that says you may die if you go further...I've been places like that before. Personal responsibility, the right equipment and training tend to be necessary to survival.

A soccer team coach and his team probably don't qualify...maybe the coach should be paying for the rescue expense if appropriate warnings were posted.

+1 Sylvain.
Our overly-litigious society is very much to blame. Used to play stupid games, and win stupid prizes. Now you play stupid games, and get rewarded.

Putting warning signs is a very American thing.Most parts of the world just relly on people's common sense and don't warn you of obvious "common sense" dangers.
You can't put signs in front of all cave entrances, on top of cliffs, at the bottom of cliffs, in rivers, next to roads telling you to look both ways before crossing etc.
Your personnal responsibility is engaged even without warning signs.
I've been to places where they just put warning signs for non-obvious risks such as burried land mines.
I agree...but my post was in response to a recommendation to plug the hole. Personally, I'd prefer taking the warnings off everything and letting it sort itself out.

So you’re OK with kids getting themselves hurt? Gotta teach them some sort of lesson through death?
Getting trapped in a flooded cave and dying isn't even on the top 10 list of bad thing that happen to kids every day in Thailand.
Not kids specifically, idiots in general.
In this incident, the kids did NOT get themselves hurt.So you’re OK with kids getting themselves hurt? Gotta teach them some sort of lesson through death?
Since part of the cave system is seasonally flooded, a sign advising against entering the caves during the rainy season (July–November) is posted at the entrance

An adult got those kids hurt, through HIS bad decisions. This is on the coach, not on the kids.
