NANNING, Feb. 10 (Xinhua) -- Four Chinese tourists injured in a ship
collision in Vietnam on Friday morning have been sent back to China for
treatment, local sources said on Saturday.
"Our ambulance took back the injured tourists this afternoon. They are now
in stable condition," said Tan Juhua, director of the Foreign Affairs Office of
Guangxi' Fangchenggang City, which administers Dongxing City, told Xinhua on
Saturday.
The Vietnam side has offered a preliminary compensation plan. The badly
injured will get 50,000 yuan (6,452 U.S. dollars) and the slightly injured will
get 30,000 yuan (3,871 U.S. dollars), said Tan.
"They're supposed to get the compensation soon." said Tan.
Compensation for the dead, who are still in Vietnam, is in negotiation, Tan
said.
The collision happened near Mong Cai town of Quang Ninh province Friday
morning when a hydrofoil with 30 people on board, including five crew members,
which had set out from the province's Ha Long City, hit a stationary cargo ship
in conditions of poor visibility.
Two Chinese tourists and one tourist from the Republic of Korea were killed
in the accident. Eighteen others were injured, including nine severely.
Dongxing City and Mong Cai town are separated by a river.
