Very disheartening.
I am curious how compensation would work on something like this. Even they did pay something, how does that work towards recovery? Is it better to leave this to nature to recover on its own, or should there be remedial/coral planting efforts to reclaim the damaged areas? I suppose that comes with its own set of questions too...

There goes a beautiful Reef for divers across the world. The worst part is the article speculates that they didn't have the required authorization to be in that area. That alone calls for negligence on th company's part.

Here is a BBC story with a video showing whats left of the reef:
BBC And the cruise ship company calls it an "unfortunate incident". Grrrr. Understatement much? Last edited by Treebeard; 03-15-2017 at 12:42 AM.

😱 am planning a trip to Raja Ampat reefs in November, the reef area destroyed reported at 145,000 square miles is impossible - 100 x 1500 miles - the correct unit should be square feet - yeesh, FoxNews 😏
JakartaPost states 13,000 square meters - still, an outrageous crime against nature.
