    In room safes

    in Koh Samui, Koh Phangan, Koh Tao

    Posted

    Went to Chubb today - no safes. You have to order from Bangkok. This office is just for the security guard service.

    Found a furniture shop selling good solid safes, but they are all to big. (Thank you JoS)

    If any of you want a safe that is as large as a storage box (and bigger) then the shop is opposite the old Monkey Theatre road entrance - near Bandon Hospital. Close to the Hydroponic Farm Shop on the ring road in-between Makro and Big C.

    I'll keep looking.

    Yes you have to order safes from Chubb. It takes two weeks to get them.

    Electricity On The Islands.

    This probably deserves a separate thread, but drivers are warned to take extreme care when approaching the traffic lights @ immigration from the direction of Naton. The lights from that direction are 'out' (not working), creating the illusion of a powercut. If you proceed to the point where you'd turn right (to Immigration/hospital) there's a chance that you'll be 'T-Boned' by someone on a Green light crossing the road from right to left in front of you, or by someone heading into Naton from Lamai who I suspect can see Green lights from that direction too.

    Them there lights at Samui Immigration, turning, have not been working for months or even a year or more now~(actually April last year if memory serves... but memory is fading with age~sometimes!!!! Posted Image )

    Same with the lights at Soi 4 Maenam!!....Posted Image

    They've been back on for at least a month.

    Anyone Know What Happened To The Tourist Who Died On Koh Tao May 20?

    Interesting not heard this.

    Clinics not up to task?

    Tao has two full time DMO (diving medical officers) that I'm aware of and at least 6 in date DMT's.

    Most operators have full o2, trained staff, and med kits, one diving agency at least on the island, does regular spot checks to ensure this.

    Unfortunately due to the remote location, clinics do not have a full ambulatory environment and a chamber does not exist, although in the event of AGE/CAGE or near drowning they are not to be used remotely anyhow, before patient is stabilised.

    Things there are far from perfect I agree, but compared to the past years they have improved greatly.

    As for the 500,000 where did this figure come from ?

    There is a chamber on Samui and we are treating people from all three islands on a regular basis.

    The chamber is located in Bangrak.
