PATTAYA, Thailand – Pattaya’s Marine Disaster Prevention Unit received an urgent request for help after a jet ski capsized in Pattaya Bay, near Jomtien Beach at 12:36 AM on December 14. The incident involved a Saudi couple, with the husband, Mr. Alamri Abdulrahman Mahdi, 26, managing to swim to shore to request assistance. His wife, Miss Alamri Atheer Saeed, 26, remained stranded in the water for over five hours after the Jet Ski accident.

A Good Samaritan, noticing the woman in distress and wearing a life jacket, reported the situation to authorities. The woman had been clinging to the Jet Ski, exhausted, and drifting further from shore. The husband, frantic for his wife’s safety, alerted nearby tourists, and emergency services were quickly mobilized.
