Pool had 2 lifeguards on duty at the time

---

ANNA was rescued from the swimming pool by a hotel guest, who immediately alerted one of the hotel's lifeguards.

She was already unconscious.

This happened at 5.11pm on Saturday, said a Rasa Sentosa Resort spokesman.

'Immediate resuscitation measures were administered by the lifeguards together with a few guests who identified themselves as qualified medical practitioners,' said the spokesman.

She said that an ambulance arrived within 15 minutes and took Anna to the nearest hospital.

The spokesman said the part of the pool where Anna was found is 1.3m deep.

She said there are always two lifeguards on duty.

The spokesman said that Anna and her parents were at Siloso Beach before the incident.

'It is unclear how the child wandered into the premises of the hotel unaccompanied, as the family was not a resident of the hotel,' said the spokesman.

'Despite the unfortunate tragedy, we re-assure that the hotel provides all safety and security measures to its guests.'
