Hong Kong authorities will review a new reservation system for a Sai Kung trail famed for its dramatic volcanic rock columns after the National Day “golden week” in October, following large numbers of no-shows during the first two trial runs. Only 1,560 registered and walk-in patrons arrived at Po Pin Chau on Saturday and Sunday, despite 3,230 people having made bookings under the real-name reservation system. Lawmakers and a district councillor have called for more on-site quotas, clearer booking status information for walk-ins, and a penalty-points system to curb no-shows.

Indonesia’s Anak Krakatoa volcano erupted continuously for three days, beginning with an initial blast late Friday night. The nation’s meteorological agency reported two significant eruptions on Sunday that sent volcanic ash more than 150km (83 miles) away and across five provinces. Residents in the capital Jakarta were among those finding homes and cars covered in ashfall. Eight airports in the country were forced to suspend operations, stranding more than 170,000 passengers.

Chinese authorities announced on Sunday that search teams have retrieved 12 additional bodies, as efforts persist to locate hundreds who remain unaccounted for following the glacial collapse and subsequent massive flash flood that devastated China's primary border crossing with Nepal. Forty-three people have been confirmed dead and 519 remain missing on the Chinese side 11 days after the disaster. The announcement came as a small contingent of foreign media were allowed to visit the port for the first time since the deadly flash floods.
