Dear Pak Jusman,
I was saddened by news of the sinking of a ferry off the coast of West Sulawesi in the early hours of Sunday morning and that more than 200 people are still missing. I understand that the Indonesian government has already launched extensive search and rescue efforts in the area, and sincerely hope that more survivors will be found.
Please accept my deepest sympathies on this tragic incident.
