All 97 passengers travelling on board a ferry headed to Singapore from Batam were rescued after the vessel hit a floating object in the water and started to sink.
"All the passengers are accounted for and the ferry is in stable condition," said the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) in a statement on Sunday night.
At the time of the incident, 97 passengers including 51 Singaporeans and seven crew members were on board.
MPA said it had received a report that the Indonesia-registered ferry Sea Prince had hit a floating object after leaving the Nongsapura ferry terminal in Batam.
The ferry operator, Batamfast immediately activated two ferries to transfer all the passengers to the Nongsapura ferry terminal, added the MPA.
