“SCUBA diving a safe activity when risks are managed” is a letter I wrote that was published in The Star on March 28 (online at bit.ly/4b4yvjm). I was responding to two scuba diving incidents in Malaysia that caused a stir among recreational scuba divers and the industry.
Sadly, another scuba death occurred recently off Pulau Tioman. She was a licensed diver who died from arterial gas embolism after separating from her group at a depth of 17.6m.
