A Norwegian book published in 2002 gives the captains view of what happened. It is clear that it was RCC Australia that picked up the distress call and asked ships in the region to respond. The MS Tampa and a japanese ship responded.
What happened on the bridge when the captain was threatened to go to Australia is a bit more unclear.
