Over 180 passengers missing in boat accident in Indonesia A total of 182 passengers went missing as their motorboat sank in Parepare waters of Indonesia's South Sulawesi province at 4 a.m. on Sunday when it was sailing from the Parepare port to Balikpapan. The boat, named KM Teratai, left the Parpare port at 4 p.m. on Saturday but sank in Parepare waters due to huge waves on Sunday, the Antara news agency quoted a rescue coordinator as saying. Coordinator of the rescue and search team from the University of Hasanuddin, Salman said in Makassar, capital of South Sulawesi province, on Sunday, that the ill-fated Teratai carried 200 passengers, 18 of whom had been rescued by local fishermen, and 182 still missing. "Three of the 18 passengers brought to the coast were rescued by Nur Salim, one of the fishermen from Majene," Salman said. KM Teratai left the Parepare port in South Sulawesi for Balikpapan at about 16:00 local time on Saturday. KM Teratai had 200 passengers on board. But earlier reports said there were 300 passengers on the boat. "Because of heavy rain and high waves, the captain could not control the vessel which then sank after being battered by big waves on its way to Balikpapan," Salman said. 印度尼西亚一艘渡轮11日凌晨在印尼苏拉威西岛马杰内附近海域沉没,目前船上有200多人失踪。 当地搜救队官员瓦希迪·苏帕曼在接受新华社记者电话采访时表示,目前搜索救援工作仍在进行,迄今为止已有18人被救起。他说,因天气恶劣,海面掀起巨浪,打翻了渡轮。 马杰内的一名官员表示,事故发生在11日凌晨2时左右,当时主管部门与位于马杰内外海50公里处的渡轮失去了联络。据悉,渡轮上有约250名乘客和17名船员,当时正从苏拉威西岛的巴里巴里港口驶往南加里曼丹省的三马林达。 印尼交通部说,失事渡轮上可能已有多达150人获救,但这一消息尚无法证实。 当地媒体援引一名幸存者的话说,一个4米高的巨浪打翻了渡轮。他说:“我当时和我的妻子及儿子在一起……但现在我找不到他们了。” 另一名幸存者说:“当时天上正下着雨,大风掀起的浪头连续打在渡轮上,不久船就沉了,很多乘客惊慌失措地跳进海里,我幸亏抓住了一个东西才获救。” 据报道,数十名船上人员的家属在得知事故发生后聚集在巴里巴里港口痛哭流涕。一位名叫达鲁玛瓦蒂的妇女说,她邀请母亲和姐妹乘这艘渡轮来她家,但现在她们可能已经被淹死了。另一位名叫鲁斯兰的男子说,他的6名家人都在船上,启程之前曾经和他联络过,但现在他无法再联络上他们了。 印尼是世界上最大的群岛国家之一,交通运输在相当大程度上依赖海运和内河航运。由于安全管理疏漏和天气恶劣等原因,印尼船只事故时有发生。 |
