Had the Lee Myung Bak regime have not removed the disaster control system, the damage caused by the sinking of the ferry would have been minimized, the commentary noted.

The Park Geun Hye regime formed the control headquarters a few days after the sinking of the ferry, disclosing its incompetence, the commentary held.

What the present regime did was blocking the families of the victims from thronging to Chongwadae, it said, adding it is not exaggeration to claim that the incompetence of the authorities led to the death of children.

The commentary accused Park of evading the responsibility and persistently blaming others.

It urged the Park regime to disclose all information about the case to fully clarify the doubt about it.
