Thai caption: Helping a drowning child

 

Thai good Samaritans helped to save a girl who got into difficulties in the sea off Bang Saen beach in Chonburi on Saturday evening. 

 

Narong Komon, 32, swan to try and help the child but said the waves were bad and he nearly became a victim himself. 

 

He managed to use a rubber ring to effect the rescue. 

 

He had been with his own family paddling in the shallows. 

 

A video showed CPR being administered on the beach. The child is recovering. 

 

Rescue official Kittipong Traibun said that those who helped would be given awards. 

 

People had been warned not to enter the sea at this time due to high waves, he said.

Lived in Bang Saen for a year and the waves shown on the video were nothing unusual and not particularly "high" as mentioned.  Why did the person doing the CPR suddenly stop as he appeared to be doing good and stopping endangers the life of the child?  Where were the parents and why did they not have the child under control?  This incident was preventable and another death could have been easily averted, which fortunately it was due to the intervention of other people.  Will the parents learn anything from this?  Doubtful.  Due to their negligence and lack of awareness of the situation a child suffered unnecessarily and endangered the lives of other people, the rescuers.

Most of the "helpers" did not appear to do anything other than just stand around doing nothing useful.

Question is why wasn't it the parents who were trying to save the girl?

 

Help yourself instead of screaming, "My baby! Someone save my baby!!!" 

 

I just love people who would rather watch other people do their dirty work rather than do it themselves.

Probably could not swim and did not know how to administer CPR...

 

Well done to all those who saved this young girls life.
