Yesterday an aircraft crashed near the coast of Papua and killed 27 passengers an crew. The aircraft belongs to struggling Merpati Nusantara Airlines, a state owned company. Until today, rescue team is still trying to evacuate the remaining bodies and the black box from the sea, after managed to recover 16 bodies yesterday.
What not known to many is the aircraft is manufactured by Chinese manufactured and it has not passed any of the aircraft safety standard.
Ironically, Indonesia is the largest single user of the aircraft. Merpati is doom to failure from the start. The aircraft purchase was part of the deal, GOI made when it seek Chinese help to finance Indonesia's problem with electricity shortage.
I say this was a bad deal, and deadly too.
