Mersing ferry tragedy.............the enforcement officers in the Marine dept hasnt learned its lessons. Once we had the tragedy of the ferry to Langkawi. No licence not enough life jackets yet the ferry was allowed to ferry passengers to Tioman. Now with the tragedy, the agency said there was no licence issued to the ferry. I think the police should charge the operater/directors for this tragedy. It is no used accepting excuses or holding enquiry to determine what went wrong. No licence charge for the offence. The directors shouldnt allowed to escape. Treat them like criminals for lives had been lost. This is like murder to me. Knowing that there was no licence and insufficient live jackets and the ferry hadnt been checked properly by the marine dept for the seaworthiness, the directors shouldnt be allowed to escape liability. It is best they are put in jail until the probe is over. No bail should be allowed. In this way the other ferry operators will take the necessary precautions to maintain safety for the passengers while on the sea
