proceeding for elucidation of the facts and the uncertainty due to the delays in
this proceeding. Therefore, the Court deems that he too should receive
compensation for non-pecuniary damage.
265. Therefore, this Court concludes that the grave non-pecuniary damage suffered
by the next of kin of Myrna Mack Chang has been fully proven.

cover future medical expenses that she requires.
267. Taking into account the various aspects of the damage discussed above,
insofar as it is pertinent and in accordance with the specifics of the case, the Court
sets the value of compensations for non-pecuniary damage to be paid to the next of
kin of the victim, in fairness, as stated in the following table:
