The heroine sisters of Phuket are Lady Chan (Thao Thep Krasattri) and Lady Muk (Thao Sri Sunthon), who in 1785 led the defense of Phuket from the Burmese invaders, saved the island with cunning and courage and became national heroes, monuments were erected in their honor and annual festivals are held, symbolizing the courage and resilience of the island's inhabitants. Lady Chan (Chloe) (Thao Thep Krasattri) and Lady Mook (Mook) (Thao Sri Sunthon) were noble sisters who led the resistance when the Burmese attacked Phuket and the governor of Phuket (Chan's husband) died. They dressed the women in men's clothes to create the appearance of a large army, and tricked the Burmese into a trap, forcing them to retreat.
