Natalie Poole, 35, is stuck on Kyun Pila, in Myanmar, with four others after the last boat off the island was suddenly cancelled. The volunteer worker, from Ashburton, Devon, said she and her fellow castaways are now taking things "day by day". For the last two months they have been forced to survive with hardly any aid in one of the world's most isolated locations.

Popular Post Wuvu2 Posted May 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2020 It's not a deserted desert Island. There are obviously other people and resources on the island. "The camp is about a 15-minute dinghy ride away from Awei Pila, the only resort on the island, which has closed because of the outbreak." Why ride the dingy back and forth instead of camping nearer fresh water and resources? Sound dramatic on purpose. 7 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Estrada Posted May 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2020 I remember visiting the Survivor supposedly, remote Island of Pulau Tiga, Sabah, Malaysia (Borneo), shown in the first series. I was amazed to see that if you walked through the trees from the Survivor Tribal House you came to a holiday resort with chalets. I can't believe that these people have a problem. Looks like another con like the Survivor TV series. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And THAT would certainly be worth a few baht for a hour or so of anecdotal mirth whilst holed up with an ice cold brew or two. I would most definitely pay for that entertainment.

Popular Post Old Croc Posted May 16, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted May 16, 2020 Not far south of her, I'm also stuck on an island I share with scorpions, snakes, wild boar and monitor lizards. It's called Phuket. Unfortunately my island also has traffic, a lack of water, thieves, scammers corrupt cops, taxi drivers, etc. as well as a social media forum rife with pop up adds. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
