Girl drowns after saving friend By ANN TAN
GEORGE TOWN: A birthday party turned awry whe
n a girl drowned after saving her friend from the pool.
Sam Yean Ting, a Year Five student in Sekolah Keba
ngsaan Batu Lanchang, was found struggling in the pool of her friend’s apartment in Green Lane at about 8pm on Saturday.
She was rushed to the Lam Wah Ee Hospital but was p
ronounced dead due to excessive water in her lungs.
The 11-year-old girl who had just finished her school final exam received her friend’s birthday invitation last week.
Her mother Tan Hong Hua, 45, said her father Sam Swee Lin, 54, who is a government servant, dropped her off at her friend’s house at 3pm on Saturday.
“At about 7pm, she called her father asking him to o
nly come and pick her up at 9pm because she would like to spend more time with her friends.
“However, my husband went earlier and waited outside because he was worried about her safety,” she said.
Tan said at about 8pm, the birthday boy’s mother called
her to inform her about the incident.
Yean Ting’s elder sister Karyn Sam Yean Fern, 23,
said she was out with her boyfriend at Padang Serai whe
n she received a call from her sister Jennie Sam Yean Nie giving her the bad news.
“The three of us do not know how to swim. I was told that Yean Ting promised our mother she would stay in the baby pool,” she said.
George Town OCPD Asst Comm Azam Abd Hamid, who confirmed the incident, said the police are not suspecting any foul play because a witness saw Yea
n Ting jumping into the pool on her own will.
“She was trying to save her friend who was drowning,” he said.

sebaik terbaca berita ni aku terus teringatkan seorang kawan aku yang juga meninggal dunia lemas untuk menyelamatkan dua rakannya yang lemas..dua rakannya terselamat tetapi tidak arwah..kejadian berlaku jika tak silap aku pada 20 May 2007 di Gunung Nuang.
Muhamad Fadhli bin Che Hassan atau lebih mesra di kenali sebagai Palie dikalangan kawan-kawan sememangnya di kenali sebagai seorang kawan yang sangat baik pekertinya..aku di pertemukan dengan arwah ketika aku terlibat dengan penggambaran filem Kala Malam Bulan Mengambang..arwah adalah seorang jurugambar untuk filem tu di samping Ted Adnan..sungguh singkat perkenalan aku dengan arwah..nyata Allah lebih menyanyangi arwah..daripada Nya kita datang dan kepada Nya kita kembali..semog a rohnya di cucuri rahmat..al Fatihah.
