IPOH: Two kindergarten teachers, S. P. Esther Christina, 60, and M. Manisah, 29, face charges for neglect that led to the drowning of a 4-year-old boy, V. Thanes Nair, in April 2023. The incident occurred at a kindergarten in Bandar Baru Sri Klebang, Chemor. It has sparked serious concerns about child safety at swimming pools.
The teachers failed to supervise the child properly, allowing him to be left unsupervised at The Centro Club swimming pool. Sadly, the boy passed away six days after being admitted to the Raja Permaisuri Bainun Hospital. This heartbreaking incident underscores the need for stronger safety measures to protect children near water.
