Shocking lack of water safety at tourist site


I WISH to relate an experience where I witnessed a shocking lack of water safety measures at a major tourist destination.

During a family vacation, we rented a paddle boat and kayak at Pulau Dayang Bunting but there was no safety briefing, only a large signboard indicating there was no lifeguard.
