Slow progress in AirAsia crash search-UPDATED: 06 Jan 2015 19:39-channel newsasia
PANGKALAN BUN, Indonesia: Recovery teams made patchy progress on Tuesday (Jan 6) in the search for bodies from the wreckage of AirAsia Flight 8501, finding the remains of just two more victims on the tenth day of operations.Hindered by rough seas, the teams have found fewer than 40 bodies since the plane crashed during a storm early on December 28, carrying 162 people from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore.Recovery workers are also yet to find the "black box" flight data recorders, crucial to determining the cause of the crash, although they have located five major parts of the plane on the seabed including a "suspected tail" - where flight recorders are usually housed.Divers were sent down to the sea floor during a break in the weather on Tuesday but they were struggling to investigate the wreckage, according to search official S B Supriyadi. "Some of them tried to dive but the bad weather hampered the diving operation," he told AFP from Pangkalan Bun, a town on Borneo island with the nearest airstrip to the wreckage."Divers haven't managed to get close to the large parts of the plane so far," he said.The operation has prioritised finding the bodies of the victims, all but seven of whom were Indonesian. All of the bodies found so far were spotted floating on the sea's surface, some still strapped into their seats, according to officials.The two bodies found on Tuesday brought the total recovered to 39, despite an extension to the area of sea being searched in the belief that debris and bodies may have drifted in strong currents.
BACKPACKS AND SHOES AMID DEBRIS
Indonesian navy commander Yayan Sofyan, whose warship Bung Tomo was the first to find debris last week, described to AFP some of the everyday objects they had recovered. "We found backpacks, suitcases, shoes, a chair for a baby," he said, adding that the search teams were determined to overcome the monsoon season weather to find more bodies."In our mind we just want to get the victims reunited with the rest of their families."Indonesia has ordered the suspension of aviation officials involved in the departure of the flight. It says the flight operated by AirAsia Indonesia was flying on an unauthorised schedule when it crashed.The airline, a unit of Malaysia-based AirAsia, has been suspended from flying the Surabaya-Singapore route -- although Singapore officials said they had given permission for the flight at their end. Indonesia's transport ministry also promised action against any domestic airlines violating their flying permits in the country, which has a patchy aviation safety record.The Indonesian meteorological agency BMKG has said weather was the "triggering factor" of the crash, with ice likely damaging the plane's engines. The initial report by BMKG into the likely cause referred to infra-red satellite pictures that showed the plane was passing through clouds with temperatures of minus 80 to minus 85 degrees Celsius.But it remained unclear why other planes on similar routes were unaffected by the weather, and other analysts said there was not enough information to explain the disaster until the flight recorders were recovered.In Surabaya, which was home to a number of the victims, a crisis centre has been up for identifying bodies and wakes have been held as they are returned to relatives.Eric Edi Santo lost his aunt and five other family members, but so far only two of their bodies have been found. He was holding out hope for the others. "They died so tragically, at least I want them to have a proper burial," he said.- AFP/ir

UPDATES-JAN 05,15-10:00PM
channelnewsasia updates in small type-11.45AM: The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) on Tuesday (Jan 6) reiterated that it is an airline's responsibility to separately obtain approval of their flight schedules from the respective civil aviation authorities at each end of the flight routing."There is no need for coordination between the two authorities in approving the airlines' schedules. This is international practice," said Ms Margaret Tan, Director (Air Transport) at CAAS, in a forum letter sent to and published by TODAY. She was responding to an article by Malay Mail Online carried by TODAY titled "Spotty coordination plaguing air safety: Asia-Pacific aviation chief".Questions had been raised about the coordination between Indonesia and Singapore's aviation authorities as AirAsia was reportedly not allowed to fly the Surabaya-Singapore-route on Sunday, which is when the crash occurred. 12.20PM: The search sector has been expanded another 17 nautical miles eastwards, and the total area is now 22,110 square nautical miles, said Malaysia's Chief of Navy Abdul Aziz Jaafar. However, the search is still hampered by the weather, with visibility at 3 nautical miles, he added.
QZ8501 crash victims' bodies can be left to decompose at sea, says Grand Imam-Agensi | Updated: January 04, 2015-ASTRO AWANI
JAKARTA: Bodies of AirAsia flight QZ8501 victims that have suffered extensive decay and deemed unrecognisable can be left to submerge in the water, said Istiqlal Mosque Grand Imam, Ali Mustafa Yakub.“If the victims have suffered extensive decomposition and are no longer recogniseable, best to leave the bodies to sink in the water,” said Ali Mustafa in an interview with Republika here, Sunday.Ali Mustafa also explained that people who died on board a vessel and requires longer time to be brought to the mainland, the human remains can be disposed in the ocean for the final resting.“If we wait until it (the body) reaches the mainland, the remains will smell,” he said.The method, he said was discussed in several Islamic kitab where the weighted body can be left to sink to the seabed. There the remain will be slowly buried by broken down further over months or years, depending on the acidity of the water.In today’s scenario, burial management is viewed crucial by using the existing state-of-the-art technology available.“Since we have the technology on conducting DNA tests, so best to bring the remains back to mainland,” he said.Ali also said that burials should be conducted as soon as possible following fardhu kifayah (communal obligatory) in Islamic teachings.
No mass funeral for AirAsia QZ8501 victims - Chief Police-Harits Asyraf Hasnan, Astro Awani | Updated: January 05, 2015
SURABAYA: Indonesia's National Police has given its assurance that it will not conduct a mass funeral for the victims of the ill-fated AirAsia flight QZ8501 which crashed on Sunday.According to its Chief General Sutarman, all victims will be identified before their families can claim the bodies.Sutarman was speaking to the families of flight QZ8501 victims where sternly disputed extensive media report regarding the alleged 'mass funeral'.“I will ensure all victims retrieved will be identifiedm too. No way, the mass funeral will occur as what was reported by the media, the news is hoax and the public should not take heed of it,” said Sutarman, during a press conference held at the Police Operation Centre (POLDA) in East Java, today.Sutarman has urged the victims' families to be patient as identification process remains delicate and requires long hours due to stringent investigation process.“If there are organs available, it will be faster, if there are only bones (left), we need longer time to process. There are the antamortem data available and we are certain that the identification process will be coherent and accurate,” he added.A total of 260 personnel from the Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) have been tasked to identify the victims’ remains. It has been reported that forensics experts from Singapore, Australia, South Korea and Saudi Arabia will be joining the team soon.On a more personal note, Sutarman also apologised to the family members for the imminent delay in the identification process.The identification process, he clarified is not done in Pangkalan Bun.At approximately 2pm (local time), Bhayangkara Police Hospital in Ahmad Yani Street, Surabaya has received 34 victims’ bodies. Of this number, nine victims have been surrendered to the respective families.On Sunday, Indonesia's Istiqlal Mosque Grand Imam Ali Mustafa Yakub reportedly said that the victims' bodies which have suffered extensive decay and deemed unrecognisable can be left to submerge in the ocean.
AirAsia flight QZ8501: Indonesia will ensure compensation is paid, says transport chief
Published on Jan 5, 2015 8:00 PM-THE SRAITES TIMES
JAKARTA - Indonesia requires AirAsia Indonesia to pay compensation to the next of kin of victims of flight QZ8501, officials said on Monday."An airline must pay compensation," Acting Air Transportation Director-General Djoko Murdjatmodjo said. "The obligation to pay compensation lies with the airline," he said in response to a question on insurance payment by AirAsia.Payment dispute has arisen after AirAsia was reported to have illegally flying the Surabaya-Singapore route on Sundays when it was not granted permission from Indonesia to do so.Tribunnews had reported that AirAsia must pay 1.25 billion rupiah in insurance and other forms of payment for every passenger on the flight which went missing with 155 passengers on board on Dec 28.Search personnel have retrieved 37 bodies and debris so far from the Indonesian seas.
AirAsia flight QZ8501: Families of passengers get offer to board naval ship to plane's search location-Published on Jan 5, 2015 3:52 PM-THE STRAITS TIMES-By Amir Hussain
SURABAYA - Family members of passengers on the ill-fated AirAsia Flight QZ8501 have received an offer to board an Indonesian naval ship to visit the plane's search location.This is to "to lessen their sorrow and sense of loss", said Indonesia's armed forces chief Moeldoko on Monday.They will be ferried from Surabaya, where the AirAsia crisis centre for relatives is located, to Pangkalan Bun via military flight.Speaking at a press conference at the East Java police headquarters after he visited relatives at the crisis centre, General Moeldoko said he assured family members that the armed forces "is working hard (to find bodies and the plane wreckage) with friendly countries"."I told them to have trust in the armed forces that we are working hard," he said.Indonesia's police chief Sutarman said he also promised relatives that all bodies recovered will be identified."We are working to identify all bodies recovered, no matter the condition they arrive in, and to release them to their families," said Gen Sutarman.The Disaster Victim Identification team at the Bhayangkara hospital, 100m away from the crisis centre and where all recovered bodies will be taken to, now comprises 260 local and foreign forensic experts, he said.While fingerprint identification will take "just a matter of minutes", other methods of identification such as through dental records and DNA testing will take longer, he said.This is the first time both military and police chiefs are visiting relatives of the 162 people on board the ill-fated flight, which crashed in the Java Sea on Dec 28 while en route from Surabaya to Singapore.A total of 37 bodies have been recovered, with 34 of those brought to Bhayangkara hospital. Only nine have been released to their families. The other 25 remain in cold storage here, waiting to be identified by forensic experts working round the clock.

Slow progress in AirAsia crash search-UPDATED: 06 Jan 2015 19:39-channel newsasia
PANGKALAN BUN, Indonesia: Recovery teams made patchy progress on Tuesday (Jan 6) in the search for bodies from the wreckage of AirAsia Flight 8501, finding the remains of just two more victims on the tenth day of operations.Hindered by rough seas, the teams have found fewer than 40 bodies since the plane crashed during a storm early on December 28, carrying 162 people from the Indonesian city of Surabaya to Singapore.Recovery workers are also yet to find the "black box" flight data recorders, crucial to determining the cause of the crash, although they have located five major parts of the plane on the seabed including a "suspected tail" - where flight recorders are usually housed.Divers were sent down to the sea floor during a break in the weather on Tuesday but they were struggling to investigate the wreckage, according to search official S B Supriyadi. "Some of them tried to dive but the bad weather hampered the diving operation," he told AFP from Pangkalan Bun, a town on Borneo island with the nearest airstrip to the wreckage."Divers haven't managed to get close to the large parts of the plane so far," he said.The operation has prioritised finding the bodies of the victims, all but seven of whom were Indonesian. All of the bodies found so far were spotted floating on the sea's surface, some still strapped into their seats, according to officials.The two bodies found on Tuesday brought the total recovered to 39, despite an extension to the area of sea being searched in the belief that debris and bodies may have drifted in strong currents.
BACKPACKS AND SHOES AMID DEBRIS
Indonesian navy commander Yayan Sofyan, whose warship Bung Tomo was the first to find debris last week, described to AFP some of the everyday objects they had recovered. "We found backpacks, suitcases, shoes, a chair for a baby," he said, adding that the search teams were determined to overcome the monsoon season weather to find more bodies."In our mind we just want to get the victims reunited with the rest of their families."Indonesia has ordered the suspension of aviation officials involved in the departure of the flight. It says the flight operated by AirAsia Indonesia was flying on an unauthorised schedule when it crashed.The airline, a unit of Malaysia-based AirAsia, has been suspended from flying the Surabaya-Singapore route -- although Singapore officials said they had given permission for the flight at their end. Indonesia's transport ministry also promised action against any domestic airlines violating their flying permits in the country, which has a patchy aviation safety record.The Indonesian meteorological agency BMKG has said weather was the "triggering factor" of the crash, with ice likely damaging the plane's engines. The initial report by BMKG into the likely cause referred to infra-red satellite pictures that showed the plane was passing through clouds with temperatures of minus 80 to minus 85 degrees Celsius.But it remained unclear why other planes on similar routes were unaffected by the weather, and other analysts said there was not enough information to explain the disaster until the flight recorders were recovered.In Surabaya, which was home to a number of the victims, a crisis centre has been up for identifying bodies and wakes have been held as they are returned to relatives.Eric Edi Santo lost his aunt and five other family members, but so far only two of their bodies have been found. He was holding out hope for the others. "They died so tragically, at least I want them to have a proper burial," he said.- AFP/ir

UPDATES-JAN 05,15-10:00PM
channelnewsasia updates in small type-11.45AM: The Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore (CAAS) on Tuesday (Jan 6) reiterated that it is an airline's responsibility to separately obtain approval of their flight schedules from the respective civil aviation authorities at each end of the flight routing."There is no need for coordination between the two authorities in approving the airlines' schedules. This is international practice," said Ms Margaret Tan, Director (Air Transport) at CAAS, in a forum letter sent to and published by TODAY. She was responding to an article by Malay Mail Online carried by TODAY titled "Spotty coordination plaguing air safety: Asia-Pacific aviation chief".Questions had been raised about the coordination between Indonesia and Singapore's aviation authorities as AirAsia was reportedly not allowed to fly the Surabaya-Singapore-route on Sunday, which is when the crash occurred. 12.20PM: The search sector has been expanded another 17 nautical miles eastwards, and the total area is now 22,110 square nautical miles, said Malaysia's Chief of Navy Abdul Aziz Jaafar. However, the search is still hampered by the weather, with visibility at 3 nautical miles, he added.
QZ8501 crash victims' bodies can be left to decompose at sea, says Grand Imam-Agensi | Updated: January 04, 2015-ASTRO AWANI
JAKARTA: Bodies of AirAsia flight QZ8501 victims that have suffered extensive decay and deemed unrecognisable can be left to submerge in the water, said Istiqlal Mosque Grand Imam, Ali Mustafa Yakub.“If the victims have suffered extensive decomposition and are no longer recogniseable, best to leave the bodies to sink in the water,” said Ali Mustafa in an interview with Republika here, Sunday.Ali Mustafa also explained that people who died on board a vessel and requires longer time to be brought to the mainland, the human remains can be disposed in the ocean for the final resting.“If we wait until it (the body) reaches the mainland, the remains will smell,” he said.The method, he said was discussed in several Islamic kitab where the weighted body can be left to sink to the seabed. There the remain will be slowly buried by broken down further over months or years, depending on the acidity of the water.In today’s scenario, burial management is viewed crucial by using the existing state-of-the-art technology available.“Since we have the technology on conducting DNA tests, so best to bring the remains back to mainland,” he said.Ali also said that burials should be conducted as soon as possible following fardhu kifayah (communal obligatory) in Islamic teachings.
No mass funeral for AirAsia QZ8501 victims - Chief Police-Harits Asyraf Hasnan, Astro Awani | Updated: January 05, 2015
SURABAYA: Indonesia's National Police has given its assurance that it will not conduct a mass funeral for the victims of the ill-fated AirAsia flight QZ8501 which crashed on Sunday.According to its Chief General Sutarman, all victims will be identified before their families can claim the bodies.Sutarman was speaking to the families of flight QZ8501 victims where sternly disputed extensive media report regarding the alleged 'mass funeral'.“I will ensure all victims retrieved will be identifiedm too.

There are the antamortem data available and we are certain that the identification process will be coherent and accurate,” he added.A total of 260 personnel from the Disaster Victim Identification (DVI) have been tasked to identify the victims’ remains. It has been reported that forensics experts from Singapore, Australia, South Korea and Saudi Arabia will be joining the team soon.On a more personal note, Sutarman also apologised to the family members for the imminent delay in the identification process.The identification process, he clarified is not done in Pangkalan Bun.At approximately 2pm (local time), Bhayangkara Police Hospital in Ahmad Yani Street, Surabaya has received 34 victims’ bodies. Of this number, nine victims have been surrendered to the respective families.On Sunday, Indonesia's Istiqlal Mosque Grand Imam Ali Mustafa Yakub reportedly said that the victims' bodies which have suffered extensive decay and deemed unrecognisable can be left to submerge in the ocean.
