NZ-QUAKE 2LAST
The names of dozens of Asian students who were caught
in the collapse of the six-level CTV building on Madras Street
were also published on the website of their languages school.
The school, King's Education, occupied the third
floor, which meant students, teachers and administrative staff
had almost no chance of survival when the building crumbled
and burnt in Tuesday's quake.
At least 44 students and nine staff members are
presumed to have died, and a further 34 students remained
unaccounted for.
With students from six countries - Japan, China, the
Philippines, Thailand, Saudi Arabia and South Korea - school
director John Ryder said: "This isn't just a tragedy for
Christchurch and New Zealand, it's a tragedy to the world".
