A 60-year-old Singaporean man and a 40-year-old Vietnamese woman were killed after a tour van they were travelling in collided with a lorry in Sabah, Malaysia on 11 March.
The Malaysian tour driver and four other Singaporeans in the van, including an 11-year-old girl, were injured and taken to hospital.
Among the five survivors, three were seriously injured – the 42-year-old Malaysian van driver and two Singaporeans aged 67 and 71.
The other two – a 58-year-old Singaporean man and the 11-year-old girl – sustained minor injuries.
The van driver was suspected to have a brain hemorrhage while the 25-year-old lorry driver was unharmed.
The van had been travelling along Jalan Semporna-Tawau, in Sabah’s Semporna district in the east coast, before it collided with a lorry. The tour van then skidded and crashed to the roadside.
The Sabah Fire and Rescue Department was alerted to the accident at 4:03pm yesterday.
This collision happened less a week after the Bukit Timah accident that involved a school bus.
