SAMARINDA, East Kalimantan: Search and rescue workers remain
unable to trace the whereabouts of a helicopter which went
missing on Tuesday last week, the Antara news agency reported.

The helicopter was carrying 18 people, including two crew
members, when it disappeared shortly after taking off from
Tabang.

The authorities had originally planned to abandon the search
on Wednesday, but PT Air Fast Indonesia, the private operator of
the missing Sikorsky S-5BT, has agreed to finance the search
operation for a few more days.

The search has focused on the thick jungle around Tabang.

The authorities have also employed the services of two
paranormals. (05)
