Re: German FT tried to hammer local, Mdm Wang could be your mother or sister, whaddaf
No leh it's the person making the decision to change lane who was at fault. The guy manning the radar had given them enough warning. I think it was the 2nd or 3rd time he reminded them before they took action. And when they finally took action, for some weird reason they kept changing lanes, the captain of the other ship got confused about what they wanted to do end up the collision happened. The one making the decisions was a Zha Bor. She had a male supervisor who I amused was using his dick to think at that time. Those 2 were the ones kena charged. Captain was below deck resting or something like that

The findings of the investigations concluded 3 key errors of judgment that resulted in the collision:
The initial alteration of course against the flow of shipping which technically contravened rule 10(b)(i) of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea and increased the risk of collision.
The decision to cross the bow of ANL Indonesia by RSS Courageous which contravened Rule 14 (a) of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea.
The subsequent minor alternations of course to port by RSS Courageous which was unclear to ANL Indonesia.
The two officers were subsequently charged in court under Section 304A Penal Code, for causing death by a negligent act not amounting to culpable homicide and were found guilty and fined SGD$4,700 and SGD$8,000 by District Judge Tan Boon Gin. An appeal[5] was lodged at the High Court of Singapore but was dismissed by Chief Justice Yong Pung How in 13 August 2004.
