A Vietnamese man who survived the capsizing of a tour boat in Ha Long Bay described his escape from the overturned vessel. At least 38 people were killed in the accident and a search is continuing for five who are still missing, according to Vietnamese state media.

Some survived by clinging to wreckage while others swam at least six hours to the nearest island, authorities say.

Passengers on a tour boat that capsized in Bali and tragically ended in Melbourne woman Annie Blight’s death have spoken out about their harrowing experience.
