Authorities are planning to press charges against the owner of a luxury resort, on Koh Kut island in Thailand’s eastern province of Trat, for failing to maintain the fire alarm system.

 

The alarm was not triggered when massive fire broke out early in the morning of Sunday, an incident which could have led to loss of guests’ lives.

 

One of those guests is a medical influencer who took to Facebook, reporting that she had suffered a fractured vertebra during her escape from the blaze. She was, she claims, faced with the choice of undergoing surgery or six weeks of bed rest.

And which government ‘authority’ is guilty for failing to ‘inspect’ the property. 

 

'Failure to maintain’ turns this into an utter mockery - The property did not have a sprinkler system or smoke alarms (reportedly). 

 

So...  Which government authority passed this property as a hotel (villa) when it didn’t pass inspection for Fire regulations ????  or rather, who took the bribe to pass off the fire regulations so it could get a hotel licence ?? !!!!....

fractured vertebra during her escape from the blaze. She was, she claims, faced with the choice of undergoing surgery or six weeks of bed rest.

 

She makes the choice? I thought a doctor did. If It is really fractured, i dont think there is a choice, but surgery.

But ok maintenance (wink) in Thailand.
