TONGA-ACCIDENT-SEA
This photo taken on August 6, 2009 by the Matangi Tonga Online shows distressed family members waiting outside the Shipping Corporation of Polynesia office on Queen Salote Wharf for a survivor list to be released after the MV Princess Ashika ferry went missing off the waters of Nuku'alofa. Most of the 25 people missing after a ferry tragedy in Tonga are believed to be women and children who were sleeping below decks when the vessel overturned, a survivor said as he came ashore on August 6, 2009. Of the 79 people believed to have been on board the Princess Ashika when it sank overnight en route from the tiny Pacific nation's capital Nuku'alofa to Ha'afeva in the Nomuka Islands group, 53 have been rescued.
