The Manila Hijacking incident
The Hong Kong tour group in the Manila hijacking incident lost 7 members. In addition, there are 7 members suffered gunshot wounds. RTHK reports that a 5 member family lost 3 in the conflict. How can a lone hijacker cause so much damages?
Comments from the administration are equally harsh as the general public. Apparently, the inefficient police force is the prime target. Questions remains just how many victims are hurt or killed by the police? We will see when the Manila investigation is over, how much a cover up it is.
The hijacker is a former policeman, with full knowledge of the corruption scheme, taking such risk to ask for fair compensation. It is obvious the force has a particular interest to deal swiftly. Nonetheless, the dealing is poorly executed causing death to innocent foreign visitors.
With so much corruption in the world, tourism may be just another adventure for the risk seekers.
