Malaysian authorities say 27 Indonesians have been rescued after their boat overturned, but one person died and seven others are still missing, AP reported. Malaysia's Maritime Enforcement Agency official Mustapa Kamal Abas said Friday that the boat was heading to Indonesia's Batam island Thursday when its engine failed and it overturned after being hit by waves. He says 28 people, including three women and an infant, hung on to the boat for 12 hours before being rescued by a tanker off Malaysia's southern Johor state. Mustapa said in a statement that one of the women later died, and that a search was under way for the missing.
