Just a day later after we warned of the perils of the lack of safety in Thailand, with a ferry sinking with 70 tourists aboard, comes another accident.
The Heaven Tour diving boat sank around 4 miles from the Surin Islands.
The aforementioned boat had taken 14 tourists from the Thap Lamu pier in Phang Nga province for diving in the area.
Initially, the Por Supranee 9 boat managed to rescue 12 people, including tourists and crew members. At present, two individuals, one foreigner and one Thai, whose names are unknown, are still missing.
In related news, a longtail boat, tasked with ferrying six tourists to Bamboo Island, sank at the Phi Phi Islands.
Be advised if you are going out on the water, know where your life jacket is and have YOUR own plan in case of emergency.
Do not rely on the operators.
