Girl almost drown in MBS pool

After I read this news, I felt quite ridiculous how this type of thing could have happened. How could a lifeguard do not know how to perform CPR? If this is so, then why are this people wearing a vest named with the word, “Lifeguard”?! A lifeguard should be someone who could save people lives’ when they meet emergency happenings in need of help. What if there was not even a guest who knows CPR? The girl might have died. This is a very serious matter. Personally, I felt that Marina Bay Sands should stricter their criteria and rules of hiring a lifeguard. This type of incident should not repeat itself again. From this news, I would like to encourage all who have read this news to learn about the basic steps in knowing how to perform CPR, because such skills might save a life in which anytime this type of situation might occur. An easy step such as pumping the chest 100 times a minute might just be beneficial enough to save a person.
