Hyrdofoils Collide, Tourists Molested, and Selling the USA

Three stories from Singapore's Straits Times newspaper from last week:

Two hydrofoils full of tourists collided in fog between Hong Kong and Macau, sending many to the hospital.

India starts a campaign to protect foreign female tourists from sexual molesters -- mostly groping, which seems to be a major problem in that country.

 The US is still trying to gain back the international tourist arrivals that it received prior to 9/11.  To do this, an increasing number of states and cities are running advertisements for the first time in Europe.

These stories came from the local newspaper in Singapore.  I found the links above by searching online for similar stories.
