Dear President Park,

I was very saddened to learn of the sinking of the passenger ferry “Sewol”.  It is especially heart wrenching that many on the ferry are young students, whose excursion to a resort ended so tragically.

On behalf of the Government and people of Singapore, I express our deepest condolences and sympathies to the families of the victims.  Our thoughts are with you and your people in this time of sorrow.

Yours sincerely,

LEE HSIEN LOONG

Her Excellency Park Geun-hye

President

Republic of Korea
