Two giant floats mark the location of the stricken Sewol ferry, which capsized off the southwestern coast of South Korea. It was full of school students when it sank on 16 April. More than 300 people have died or are missing and presumed dead. Divers are still trying to recover their bodies. A sombre Prime Minister Chung Hong-won offered his resignation amid criticism of the government's handling of the disaster.

US president meets with Malaysian PM
美国总统会见马来西亚总理
With a handshake and a smile, Malaysia and the US enter a new phase in their relationship. U.S. President Barack Obama is the first serving American leader to visit this predominantly Muslim nation in decades. During his two day visit, Obama will have much to discuss with his Malaysian counterpart Najib Razak. Talks with Razak are expected to focus on trade, defense and maritime security. But the US president will have a difficult task getting Kuala Lumpur to sign his Trans-Pacific Partnership -- free trade deal with 10 other nations. The trade deal is intended to counter China's growing economic influence in the region but Malaysia is a close trading partner of China and has opposed parts of the deal. During the two-day visit, which follows stops in Japan and South Korea, Obama visited the National Mosque of Malaysia, removing his shoes in keeping with protocol. He stopped for a few moments in a prayer room. Obama will leave Malaysia on Monday for the Philippines, where he will spend two days before returning to Washington.
马来西亚总理和美国总统微笑着握手，两国关系进入新的阶段。奥巴马是几十年来访问这个穆斯林国家的首位在任美国总统。在为期两天的访问期间，奥巴马将与马来西亚总理纳吉布·拉扎克(Najib Razak)讨论一系列问题。会谈将集中在贸易，国防和海上安全方面。但是美国总统还有一项艰巨任务，就是让吉隆坡签署跨太平洋合作伙伴协议，一项与其他十个国家之间的自由贸易协议。该贸易协议是为了抵抗中国在该地区不断增长的经济影响力，但是马来西亚是中国亲密的贸易伙伴，反对该协议的部分内容。此前，奥巴马访问了日本和韩国。在对马来西亚进行的为期两天的访问期间，奥巴马参观了马来西亚国家清真寺，出于礼仪脱下鞋子赤脚进入。他在祈祷室停留了一会儿。奥巴马将于周一离开马来西亚前往菲律宾进行两天的访问，随后返回华盛顿。
Tornados damage around 150 homes in North Carolina
飓风摧毁北卡州150座房屋
Cars resembling concertinas, devastated houses and even upturned boats were left in the wake of multiple tornadoes in the U.S. state of North Carolina. Residents surveyed the damage from the powerful storms. Around 150 homes were destroyed and more than a dozen people sent to the emergency room. Here in Beaufort residents tried to salvage a precious few items from their crushed mobile homes. Trees were snapped clean in half by powerful winds of around 160 kilometres an hour. Thousands were left without power, although by Sunday most electricity had been restored. And meteorologists warned that the worst is not yet over, as a new severe storm system gains strength in the Great Plains. They say there's a moderate risk of tornadoes touching down in Louisiana, Arkansas, Texas and the lower Mississippi Valley.
美国北卡罗来纳州飓风肆虐，到处是变形的汽车，毁坏的房屋和倾覆的船只。居民们调查了强力风暴造成的损害。大约150座房屋被毁，超过12人被送往急救室。在博福特，居民们试图从被压扁的移动房屋中拯救贵重物品。树木被时速160英里的大风拦腰折断。数千人断电，不过截止到周日，大部分电力已经恢复。气象学家警告称最糟糕的时刻还没有过去，一场新的大型风暴系统正在大平原地区凝聚。他们表示，飓风前往路易斯安那，阿肯色，德克萨斯和密西西比河河谷下游的风险达到中度水平。
