The Vice-Principal of the school that organized the field trip for those hundreds of students also committed suicide afterwards.
From Reddit, his suicide note:
Here is his suicide note:
“While 200 (students) are dead or alive, it is too much for my strength to live alone.
Give me full responsibility. I was the one who carried forward with the class trip. Cremate my body and spread my ashes near the sunken boat site. In the afterlife, maybe I will be the teacher to the students whose bodies have not been found.”
That is tragic.
Would that our officials would have 1/4 tht sense of honor.
I spent enough time in Asia to not be surprised by his actions, but not enough time to totally understand. What a tragedy.
That is awful.
