Unwanted deaths at sea

 IT is sad to read about disasters in the sea involving small boats or dinghies despite the many warnings from authorities to take precautions while travelling at sea. 

Most are still ignoring these warnings. They continue to risk their lives resulting in preventable deaths. 

The authorities must not continue to turn a blind eye on this issue, which, in recent times, has been occurring frequently. 

They need to step up their awareness programmes until everyone gets the message. 

We cannot keep silent over such issues when it is happening every now and then.

Please take extra precautions while traveling.
