马来西亚官员说，一艘满载非法移民的超载渡轮星期四在马来西亚沿海城镇萨巴克附近海面倾覆，至少13人死亡。
船上运载的很可能是返回印尼苏门答腊岛的印尼打工者。
据信船上约有100人。马来西亚已派出几艘船和飞机前往出事地点寻找幸存者。
据信，目前有两百万印尼人在马来西亚非法打工。他们经常夜间乘坐简陋超载的渡船，以免被当局发现。
A overcrowded, wooden migrant boat has capsized in stormy seas off the coast of Malaysia, killing at least 13 people, according to Malaysian officials.
Maritime officials say the boat was likely taking Indonesian workers back home to Sumatra island.
As many as 100 people are believed to have been on board the boat, say Malaysia officials, who have dispatched several vessels and a plane to look for survivors.
Around two million Indonesians are believed to be working illegally in Malaysia. They often make the journey in rickety, overcrowded boats, often at night, to avoid being spotted by authorities.
