Jakarta – Four people were killed and another four missing after a boat carrying guests to a wedding party sank off Indonesia’s East Kalimantan province, an official said on Friday.
The spokesman for the National Disaster Management Agency, Sutopo Nugroho, said 40 people survived the accident in waters off Paser district on Thursday.
“It was suspected that the boat was overloaded; it should have carried only 20 people.
“The victims were on the way to a wedding party in nearby Tanjung Harapan,’’ Sutopo said. (dpa/NAN)
