        SKorea is like Singapore…developed country. How come this can happen?

        Imagine parents’ anguish.

              I wonder what the ferry hit. I hope it’s not a North Korean sub. That would raise hell in that region.

                heard on radio just now that the captain was one of the few who jumped to safety when it started to sink.

                  The mindset of following instructions (stay put, dont move) may need to be reviewed.

                    oh yes, that's for sure.
                    until now, it's not known what happened.
