KOTA KINABALU, Oct 8 (Bernama) — Navy combat boat CB204, which was found last Monday after it was reported missing for over 30 hours in the Mengalum waters of Sabah, is expected to arrive at the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) base here at 1 pm today.
This latest information from the Kota Kinabalu RMN base was conveyed to the media this morning.
Yesterday, Region Two navy commander, Rear Admiral Datuk Mohammad Rosland Omar said the operation to bring the vessel back to the base, which started at 10pm Monday, was being handled by KD Ganas, which replaced KD Paus, and escorted by KD Lekiu.
