A year on from Lion Air crash, Indonesians pray, scatter petals for victims
Tuesday`s commemoration came days after Indonesian investigators issued their final report into the disaster, setting out Boeing`s failure to identify risks in the design of cockpit software and recommending better training for Lion Air`s pilots. Some members of victims` families were taken by boat to the crash site off the West Java town of Karawang to throw petals into the sea, an act of tribute relatives also performed on Nov. 8 last year.
