Firstly, this is such a horrible incident for everyone onboard. I don't think there is any reason to rate the horrid experiences the people onboard experienced. Whether one is on the shop as a passenger or employee, it was terrible for all.
While there are some who have written reviews on the pit of touch rich and the disadvantaged brown skinned crew, I'm not entirely sure what these people are reviewing? Is it the class system? Or the environment.
I didn't like what one of the woman who insinuated that because the people are rich, they get looked after. She seems to have forgotten, that one group went on the ship by paying to have a holiday and the other group went in to get paid to work. It's as if she thinks paying guests should wander down the kitchen to get food for themselves? How is that going to work?
The so called brown people, while they have sacrificed to be away from family and friends, they went on the ship willingly because it pays well better than what their country's economy can give them. It is so condescending having to read these privileged people wanting to be the savior of these "helpless poor people". The so-called rich on the ship are not that rich and if they come, the people can have a job to get paid.
Some who work on ships do so because they want to travel and see places while getting paid.
Did the crew have smaller rooms? Yes. It's no different from resort employees who have to take up residence in hotel grounds. The disparity between rich and poor is also everywhere third world countries' and 5 star hotels.
What people should be seeing is that how each government looks after their citizens in times of calamity. Americans got out because they have funds to do so. Indonesians got out last because the level of corruption in their country is so severe that it cripples their economy. So that is where the problem lies.
