Lifesavers for Hire: Red Rescue’s Dive into Professional Pool Safety

Drowning remains one of Malaysia’s silent epidemics, yet few talk about who’s truly responsible for water safety, or how it can be turned into a viable business.

In this episode of Open For Business, we explore how Red Rescue is addressing this urgent concern not just by placing lifeguards poolside, but by building a full-fledged academy, running training programmes, and offering safety solutions to clients like international schools, sports centres, and major waterparks.

We dive into the business of lifesaving with Manigandaa Keertan, Founder & CEO of Red Rescue — exploring the demand for certified water safety professionals, and how Red Rescue is tackling lifeguard shortages with a purpose-first, solution-oriented mindset.
