Ferry Tragedy Victim Manages
To Save Son Before Disappearing
Oct 14 (Bernama)
Mersing, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- Choong Yoong Kim, 43, one of the victims who is
still missing after
the "Seagull Express" ferry caught fire seven nautical miles off Tioman
Island yesterday, managed
to save his youngest son before disappearing under the water.
The victim's sister-in-law, Wong Sook Khim, said she managed to see Chong held
his son, Chong
Wing Yi, 7 on board the ferry before it sank, when told that her brother-in-law
was among the
three victims which were still missing.
"I did not expect that this holiday, involving 20 people from our six families
will result in a
tragedy like this because we have been planning to holiday in Tioman for a long
time.
"Also, another victim, whose fate is still unknown, is my brother, Wong Soong
Leng, 37," she told
reporters here today.
She said other than Wing Yi, Chong still has three other children -- Zi Wei, 17,
Wing Jian, 16
and Zi Kuan, 10.
"Wing Yi, who suffered burns to the face and hands, is undergoing treatment at
Sultanah Aminah
Hospital in Johor Baharu.
"Although we are in the midst of sorrow, we are hoping that Choong and Wong will
be found safe,"
she said.
In the incident which occurred at 12.30pm yesterday, the 20 family members from
Petaling Jaya
boarded the ferry for Pulau Tioman before it caught fire and sank.
There were also 86 other passengers including three crew members on board.
The dead were Hoo Lee Lan, 67, from Kuala Lumpur, Hong See Tiew, 53, Teh Siew
Lan, 52, both from Klang, and Tee Moi @ Haw Lee Maoi, 68, from Batu Pahat.
The injured, including three women, were Lee Zsi Winn from Johor Baharu, Yong
Sait Yoon from
Kuala Lumpur, Ngow Lee Ling from Batu Pahat and a boy, Choong Wing Yi from Kuala
Lumpur.
Meanwhile, two eye-witnesses, crew members Zulkarnain Subahan and Asi Abdul
Manaf, who helped in rescuing the passengers, said the fire started very fast.
"We threw ropes and life jackets to help the victims," Zulkarnain said.
He said the tragedy was the first in his eight years as a crew member of the
ferry.

Ferry Fire: Najib Wants Full Investigation
PEKAN, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- Datuk Seri Najib Tun Razak wants a full investigation
into the ferry
fire off Tioman island yesterday which took four lives.
Expressing sadness over the incident, the deputy prime minister said an
investigation must be
conducted to determine the cause of the fire, whether the ferry operator had
abided by the safety
standards and whether the crew had done everything possible to save the
passengers,
The government took a serious view of the incident because it involved public
interest and loss
of lives, he told reporters at his open house at Dataran Pekan here today.
The ferry, the "Seagull Express", said to be carrying 106 people
including the driver and two
crew members, caught fire and sank while on its way to Tioman Island from
Mersing on the Johor
east coast at about 12.30pm.
Four holidaymakers died and the injured included three women and a boy who are
now warded at the
Sultanah Aminah Hospital in Johor Baharu.
The Tengku Mahkota of Pahang, Tengku Abdullah Sultan Ahmad Shah, and Menteri
Besar Datuk Seri
Adnan Yaakob were among about 30,000 people who turned out for the open house
hosted by Najib and his wife, Datin Seri Rosmah Mansor.

Search And Rescue Operation For Missing Passengers Resumes
MERSING, Oct 14 (Bernama) -- The search and rescue (SAR) operation for missing
passengers of the
ill-fated "Seagull Express" ferry, which caught fire seven nautical miles
off Tioman Island yesterday, killing 4 people, resumed this morning.
Mersing OCPD DSP Harun Arshad said more than 50 SAR personnel from the maritime
and marine
agencies were deployed in the operation.
"We are still searching for three passengers who are reported missing and
their fate is still unknown.
"An operations room has also been set up at the Rompin police headquarters to
assist us. We are
trying our level best to assist them," he told Bernama here.
Harun also said that the four injured survivors who were admitted to the
Mersing Hospital had
been transferred to the Sultanah Aminah Hospital in Johor Baharu for further
treatment.
The injured comprised three women -- Lee Zsi Winn of Johor Baharu, Yong Sait
Yoon of Kuala Lumpur and Ngow Lee Ling of Batu Pahat -- and a boy, Choong Wing
Yi, from Kuala Lumpur.
It is learnt that about 20 survivors were temporarily housed at Hotel Seri
Malaysia in Mersing by
the management of Seagull Express while the rest would leave for home.
Yesterday, four holidaymakers died and four others were injured
when passengers jumped off a
ferry, which caught fire and eventually sank while on its way to Tioman Island
from Mersing, on
the Johor east coast at about 12.30pm.
The dead were identified as Hoo Lee Lan, 67, of Kuala Lumpur, Hong See Tiew, 53,
Teh Siew Lian,
52, both of Klang, Selangor, and Tee Moi @ Haw Lee Maoi, 68, of Batu Pahat,
Johor.
Initial investigations by police revealed that engine trouble caused the fire
and that the ferry's licence expired last December last year and was not
renewed.
Meanwhile, Johor state executive councillor Zainal Abidin Osman, who was briefed
on the incident
by the maritime department, said he was informed that there were 106
people on board the ferry,
including the ferry driver and two workers
Speaking to reporters after the briefing, said there should not be a recurrence
of such incident
because Mersing's economy depended largely on the tourist trade.
Zainal, who is also Endau state assemblyman, said tour ferry operators should
emphasise safety in
their service and provide ample life jackets for passengers in case of disasters
like this.

4 Dead, Four Injured In Ferry Tragedy
MERSING, Oct 13 (Bernama) -- Four holidaymakers are confirmed dead and four
others are injured
after suffering injuries when they jumped off a ferry on fire while cruising to
Tioman Island from Mersing at about noon today.
When the fire broke at about 12.30pm, the ferry was about seven nautical miles
or about 30 minutes from Tioman Island, near Rompin, Pahang.
Mersing OCPD DSP Harun Arshad said marine police, fishing and tourist boats sent
to the scene for
search and rescue operations following a distress call managed to pluck from the
sea 94 of the 98
passengers.
Four bodies were retrieved from the sea, he told Bernama.
The dead are Hoo Lee Lan, 67, from Kuala Lumpur, Hong See Tiew, 53, Teh Siew
Lian, 52, both from
Klang, and Tee Moi @ Haw Lee Maoi, 68, from Batu Pahat.
The injured including three women -- Lee Zsi Winn from Johor Baharu, Yong Sait
Yoon from Kuala
Lumpur, Ngow Lee Ling from Batu Pahat and a boy, Choong Wing Yi, from Kuala
Lumpur -- have been admitted to the Mersing Hospital.
Harun said police are recording statements from survivors to gather information
on how and where
the fire started as well as the actual number of people on board the ill-fated
"Seagull" ferry
before the incident.
All the survivors have been brought to the Mersing district police headquarters,
he said.
He said police believe the pilot of the ferry, owned by a Mersing-based company,
was missing.
A search and rescue team was scouring the area for the missing pilot and
possible survivors as
police believe there could be more passengers on board the ferry, he said,
adding that there was
no passenger manifest.
The bodies have yet to be claimed by their next-of-kin.
