SANDAKAN: What was supposed to be a two-hour boat trip became an ordeal for eight villagers when their craft capsized off Pulau Tatabuan, about 200km east of Kota Kinabalu, on Tuesday.
Four of the villagers and an 11-year-old boy managed to cling on to the boat for nearly two hours before a boat heading for Kaniongan spotted them. They were dropped off at Tanjung Piku Piku.
