    What a sad news, and what kind of ferry was it. How can a person fall in water while enjoying inside. I am surprised. May his soul rest in peace.

    Sad news. May his soul rest in peace, Amen. I am reading so many drowning news every time. Just telling to take care. There should be danger / red flag to take precaution wherever the drowned cases happened. Municipality & police should put a small notice board telling how many have drowned in that area till now.
