💨 Abstract

Indonesian authorities are searching for 30 missing people after a ferry sank near Bali. The KMP Tunu Pratama Jaya sank near East Java Wednesday, carrying 22 vehicles and 75 people. Rescuers, including over 160 personnel and three helicopters, have been deployed despite rough conditions. The investigation suggests an engine room leak, and past incidents highlight Indonesia's safety regulation challenges. Six people are confirmed dead, and 29 have survived.
