Respect Nature, And It Will Respect You Back
AFTER very tense seconds, the search and rescue (SAR) team was finally able to extricate the body of Erry Yunanto from the depths of Mt. Merapi's crater last week. The Yogyakarta Atma Jaya University student had fallen into the crater while descending the mountain peak on May 15. The recovery process had to be done extra cautiously, given the sharp incline of the crater's sides which emitted poisonous fumes.
