Two missing in landslide on Thailand’s Koh Samui

Two Burmese construction workers who are still missing after a disaster buried their casket on the holiday island of Koh Samui early on Sunday are being battling it out with save workers and soldiers.

At 4am, the disaster struck the laborers ‘ camp at a hotel development initiative on the slope of a hill in Soi Hima Thong of tambon Maret. &nbsp,

Eight employees at the Samui Rescue Center were sleeping when they heard a loud sound and discovered one of the tents had been submerged in the mud, according to Pornchai Subprasert, the camp’s director. &nbsp,

” First, the two missing Myanmar were partially buried and were shouting for aid. The employees tried to remove them, but when another disaster completely wiped them out, Mr. Pornchai said, they had to flee the scene. &nbsp,

The missing workers were not found by rescuers, soldiers, or construction workers who were equipped with a smaller shovel. They were moving with caution because the place was also unstable and possible more rain would cause mudslides. &nbsp, &nbsp,

The Hydro-Informatics Institute ( HII ) had recorded more than 200mm of rain on Koh Samui 24 hours before the incident. The Department of Mineral Resources issued a warning on Saturday that both Koh Samui and Koh Phangan, which is close to being a major isle, were in moderate to high risk of floods. &nbsp,
