An independent commission was set up Thursday to look into the opposition complaint that said the Swedish government reacted slowly in response to the Asian tsunami, to which 1,889 swedes fell a victim.
The commission, appointed by the government, was made up of five independent personalities and chaired by the head of the Stockholm appeals court.
In the deadly tsunamis that swept across the coastal countries in the Indian Ocean rim on Dec. 26, 52 swedes have been confirmed dead, 637 are missing and 1,200 are unaccounted for.
The opposition had complained the government reacted slowly despite urgent messages from Sweden's ambassador to Thailand and demanded an investigation into the government's possible negligence.
