Missing Singaporean kayaker: Malaysia narrows search area after reporting sighting of body

“Today's search involved six boats, four from the Malaysian Maritime Enforcement Agency, and one each from the Marine Police and the Civil Defence Force," said the maritime commander.

“Although the weather today is better than yesterday’s, the current haze restricted the use of our assets. That is why the search involved maritime assets only." The operation will be expanded to Kuala Terengganu on Saturday as remains could have been moved by strong currents, he added.
