The message of condolences runs: ''It was with deep sorrow that I learned of the earthquake and resulting tsunami that smashed into southern coast of Indonesia's Java Island that caused extensive damage and where hundreds of people lost their lives. I wish you and your people strength in recovering from this severe tragedy. Please convey my personal sympathy and the condolences of the entire Estonian nation to the injured and the families of the victims.''
