Seeking Asylum
Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the Indian Ocean, 2012. Frame 8 of 19.
In his words
By the second night of the voyage, the weather turned. People were crying, praying, recalling their loved ones. As water poured into the boat, we all lost hope. We thought it was really the end. I thought about how I had given my life for nothing, that if I had another chance to live I wouldn’t have taken the boat. We were watching our deaths.
