MIRI: A massive round-the-clock search and rescue operation has been mounted in a frantic effort to locate Sarawak Assistant Minister Dr Judson Tagal and six others whose fate remains unknown since their helicopter went missing in the jungles of the Sabah-Sarawak-Kalimantan border on Monday afternoon.
The search involves six aircraft and more than 500 people from the armed forces and police. Some 300 villagers are also helping to comb the mountainous and heavily forested terrain.
