ONE NEWS; TONIGHT - TONGA

Description:
There are concerns that the "Princess Ashika" ferry that sunk in Tonga two days ago was not seaworthy as one New Zealander, Elisapeta Ofa prepares to go to Tonga in hopes of finding family members while the New Zealand search and rescue team in Tonga are hoping that debris on the water will lead them to more bodies. At least 64 people are still missing and only two bodies have been recovered.
