PETALING JAYA: The Malaysians injured in a bus accident in Norway are in good health, says the Foreign Ministry.
It said on Tuesday (Dec 31) that it has established contact with the two Malaysians involved in the accident near Lake Åsvatnet, Norway on Dec 26.
“Both individuals sustained minor injuries, have been categorised as “non-injury” cases by Norwegian authorities, and remain in good health. They have since resumed their journey in Norway without further complications,” said Wisma Putra.
It added that only two Malaysians were involved, and not four as initially reported.
“Initial reports indicating the involvement of four Malaysians in the accident were due to a misunderstanding, as two other Malaysian nationals were staying at the same hotel but were not part of the accident,” said the ministry.
The Ministry, on behalf of the Government of Malaysia, expresses its deepest gratitude to the local authorities in Norway for their prompt and invaluable assistance to the Malaysian passengers involved,” it added.
