The Government of Indonesia planned several activities to celebrate its first 100 days in office. So they test fired a rocket, aiming it at a prawn farm. The rocket hit a house, seriously injuring an elderly couple. The woman’s leg had to be amputated, while the man is in hospital with severe burns. The spokesman for the State Ministry of Research and Technology said, “We are still investigating why the mistake occurred. It could be because of strong wind at the time of launch. Compensation has been offered to the victims. This reflects that we are deeply sorry.”
I am sure the couple are even more sorry.
