Thailand's rescued cave boys to address media on Wednesday

By Panarat Thepgumpanat BANGKOK (Reuters) - The 12 Thai boys and soccer coach who were rescued from a flooded cave will be discharged from hospital on Wednesday and hold a news conference the same day to satisfy huge media interest in their story, a government official said. "We want to reduce public curiosity," government spokesman Sansern Kaewkamnerd told Reuters on Tuesday. The authorities have been concerned about the impact of sudden fame and media attention on the boys' mental health, so Wednesday's news conference will be carefully controlled.
