A French family of three, including two children aged between five and seven, is missing after a jet ski trip on Koh Samui, Surat Thani province, on August 13. The family, who had rented a green and white Sea-Doo jet ski, were last seen by a family member onshore near Chawang Beach in front of Long Beach Hotel at around 5:20pm. They reportedly wore life jackets during the trip.
Authorities, including police, rescue teams, and local volunteers, launched a search operation to find the missing family. However, the search was halted on August 13 due to safety concerns, as strong winds and waves reached three to four meters. The search is set to restart early on August 14. The case has garnered attention online, with locals sharing information to assist in the search.
It follows another recent missing person case in Bangkok where a 12-year-old American girl was found safe after going missing on August 5.
