3000 km or about 2000 mile distance from the affected area in super rich waters would result in bare bones sinking to the bottom of the ocean in a very short time.diverwannabe:But I cannnot imagine going there now. While I know that many of the people of Bali depend on jobs which Holland America and others provide - just knowing that not very far away I could be encountering the remnants of people someone loved while having a swim makes me feel that this is not the time to take advantage of a good deal!
Perhaps if somehow a "remanant" got caught on an oceanliner incased in a plastic bag and was dragged to Bali then maybe it would happen. If no plastic bag, the water pressure would tear off what remaining soft rotting tissue there is.
A legitamate excuse maybe I would not want to eat any fish, crab, shrimp... when in Asia. Then again the same stuff is also exported world wide!
