JAKARTA: Indonesian rescuers on Monday scaled down a search for 17 people still missing after a ferry sank near the island of Bali earlier this month, an official said.
The ferry, KMP Tunu Pratama Jaya, was carrying 65 people when it sank almost 30 minutes after leaving East Java province's Banyuwangi port to Bali on July 3.
As of Monday afternoon, 18 people were confirmed dead with 30 survivors, Ribut Eko Suyatno, an official at Indonesia's search and rescue agency, told Reuters.
All passengers were Indonesian except for one Malaysian who was among the fatalities, local media reported.
