China seeks international assistance in search for capsized fishing boat crew.
China's ambassador to Australia has urged Canberra to increase its rescue efforts to locate the 39 missing crew members on board a Chinese fishing boat that capsized in the Indian Ocean earlier this week. The missing crew includes 17 Chinese nationals, 17 Indonesians, and five from the Philippines. The capsized fishing boat had been found, but no survivors have been located so far. China is coordinating with several countries, including Indonesia, Sri Lanka, and Maldives, for the rescue mission.
