00:00
An iconic Penang ferry sank early this morning at the Sultan Abdul Halim Terminal in Butterworth.
00:07
Currently the Penang Port Commission is working to salvage the ferry while the Fire and Rescue
00:12
Department is preventing oil from spilling into the sea.
00:17
It is understood that the ferry began to lean to one side before sinking after strong winds
00:21
snapped its mooring ropes.
00:24
PPC Chairman Yeo Soon Hin also confirmed the incident, saying the Commission was notified
00:30
of the sinking at 3.36am, Benama reported.
00:35
PPC personnel immediately attached additional mooring lines and oil booms to the ship to
00:40
stop an oil slick from forming.
00:43
The iconic Penang ferry service ran for 126 years before being discontinued in 2020.
00:49
It was replaced by speedboats for passengers and ferries for motorcycles and bicycles.
