A number of survivors of the disaster joined family members of the victims as well as foreign diplomats, members of parliament, emergency service personnel, local councillors and townsfolk - many of whom were on the scene that fatal night ten years ago when an arsonist set fire to the historic Palace building which led to the loss of 15 lives.
It was a pleasure to spend time with Mr and Mrs George and Sheila Webb who tragically lost their daughter Claire to the fire. The Webb's travelled from their home near Bognor Regis in the UK to be at the ceremony.
The British High Commissioner Baroness Valerie Amos was on hand to represent her nationals and provided great support to Mr and Mrs Webb as well as others caught up in the tragedy.
