webfact Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Surin Beach’s temporary lifeguards on hold until further notice By The Phuket News The sole so-called ‘lifeguard’ currently ‘on duty’ at Surin Beach relaxes in a chair in the shade (right) with his back to the beach while a family play by the red no-swimming flag on the beach. Photo: Supplied PHUKET: The arrival of trained, professional lifeguards at Surin Beach is on hold until contractual issues have been resolved, MaAnn Samran, Chief of the Cherng Talay Tambon Administration Organisation (OrBorTor), has told The Phuket News. Mr MaAnn only last week promised that trained, qualified lifeguards will start this week. The lifeguards were being hired under a B170,000 short-term arrangement, month by month, to patrol Surin Beach, and had to be hired on only a temporary basis as legal issues still prevent the OrBorTor from offering a government contract to provide full-time lifeguards, he explained last Wednesday (July 10).

In the meantime will there be signs in English: "No drowning until contractual issues have been resolved"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beechbum Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Not the least bit surprised at the poor excuse for a human MaAnn's spewing his usual BS and lies, he must have had a toilet surgically removed from under his chin when he was young. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gk10002000 Posted July 17, 2019 Share Posted July 17, 2019 I was a Boy Scout Life Guard and let me tell you, the class was NOT easy. I was 17 at the time I earned it and I was on swimming and diving teams, had junior and senior lifesaving stuff already, etc.. But that scout life guard was grueling. They were not there just to hand out the certification. Swimming, towing, throwing, clothes on, clothes off, etc. They failed many of the kids in the class, some went home crying.
