Brave Boy Found Alive After Two Days at Sea

      Feeling no fear, a five-year-old boy spent two days floating at sea on a mattress in a bid
to survive from the effects of the tsunami that killed thousands of people from his town and
was reunited with his family on Thursday.
      He cried as he rushed to his parents, older brother and younger sister at a refugee camp
in Meulaboh, his hometown of 40,000 people in Aceh that was one of the hardest hit in
Sunday’s disaster.
       Wira later calmly recounted to reporters the amazing events that brought him back to his
family, a rare tale of happiness in the devastated province on the island of Sumatra that has
seen nearly 80,000 people killed by the flooding.
      Nursing only a gash to his left leg, Wira said he was playing with his brother and sister
near his home when the waters rushed through.
      According to Antara news agency, Wira said he held on to various floating pieces of wood
while being swept away.
      “I was not afraid because I am used to the sea.” Wira said while massaging his wounded
leg.
      “As I was still holding to a door, the mattress came by so I decided to climb on it. I was
not afraid, but I was cold.”
      Wira said he spent two days out at sea until he was found by fisherman on the look out
for bodies off coast of Meulaboh. –AFP

Tornado Wreaks Havoc in Semarang

Residents assess the damage after a tornado damages 150 houses in the district of
Tembalag in Semarang, Central Java late on Saturday afternoon.
Three people were injured and at least five of the houses in the Sendangguwo and
Tandang neighborhoods were destroyed, while many others were seriously damaged as the
tornado ripped off their roofs. Thoirin aka Jayeng, 40, a resident whose house was leveled at
the Sendang Asri housing complex, said the winds hit about 4 p.m.
“I saw this black wind coming and becoming pointed into a funnel. It suddenly
approached and hit my house,” he said.
Tohirin’s wife, two children and mother-in law were in the kitchen at the time when the
tornado known locally as “Ulur-ulur” passed over their home, destroying the guest and
bedrooms.
“It was as if the wind had lifted my home up,” Thoirin said.
The disaster also destroyed the walls of four neighboring houses.
Many other homes in the area lost their roofs and residents and neighbors had started
rebuilding on Sunday.
Tembalang district head Dayat said the tornado also damaged a small mosque and felled
power lines and about 50 trees. His office was still collecting data on the damage, he said.
Villagers said the tornado was the worst to hit the district in living memory.
Semarang Mayor Sukawi Sutarip and his wife, Sinto Sukawi, visited the scene on
Sunday, accompanied by senior officials.
“We will provide the victims with assistance immediately,” the mayoral spokesman
Achyani said.
