Bali Boys To Have Open Funerals

Heard on the news tonight both the Chan and Sukamaran families are holding open funerals for Andrew and Myuran.

 

Andrew Chan's funeral will be at the Hillsong Church, opposite where I work,  on Friday.

 

I believe Sukarmarans funeral will be televised.

 

Wouldn't you think the families would have given their boys a dignified funeral and not made a media circus out of it?

 

The media will be in a frenzy.

the support for the families from australian

public was obvious.  there were/are a lot 

of people who strongly oppose the killings

of chan and sukumaran.  there were vigils

held across the country.  

 

chan's family seem like nice, decent people.

i think the choice of the venue was more to 

do with wanting to accommodate all those people

who showed support rather than seeking publicity.

Your mum was not a criminal, I presume?  Of-course, you would have open funeral at church that would accomadate all relatives and friends.  Having funeral for these 2 men in venues that accommodate thousands is another story.


It wouldn't matter to me if she was....... she is still my mum.

Re: Bali Boys To Have Open Funerals

i dont empathise with the families.

Cmon, their sons had mediocre jobs and then suddenly are pulling in lots of cash and going on trips to Indonesia and paying for others to go with them.

Yehhh, sure they didnt know what their sons were up too

i dont think the families ever asked for 

them to be freed.  just not to be killed.

I don't think they did either, the mother's letter to the President made that clear.........

I doubt it will make any difference but I hope they decide at some stage not to enforce the death penalty in future. Those who have no empathy for the families, I hope they are never faced with a situation where their children do the wrong thing and get caught.
