SOUNDBITE (Indonesian, dubbed in English) Nanang Sigit, head, Search and Rescue Operation: "Almost all the survivors and those who were found in the Gilimanuk area, as you can see here, were found in the southern part of the area. The ones who didn't survive were close to each other in the same area where the boat capsized. In the first six hours, we focused the search around the area of the accident. But the seas are very choppy and rough in that area. So, taking into consideration the movement of the water, we are expanding our search now. However, we are not able to complete everything today because of the water conditions and waves, but we will definitely expand our search area in the coming days." 3. Various of people in sorrow.
