A log ship on which two seafarers died of suspected asphyxiation has left Marsden Pt after surviving Burmese crew members were promised repatriation once they reach South Korea.
The Maritime Union reached a deal with the TPC Wellington's Korean operator to release the vessel's 10 remaining seamen ratings from their contracts in Pusan, and pay the cost of flying them home to Myanmar as well as wages and a bonus.
