Five Taiwanese dead in Vietnam boat crash: media

Five Taiwanese tourists including a child were killed Wednesday in a boat collision in Vietnam's famed Halong Bay, state media reported.

The accident happened when a small boat bringing the tourists back from a visit to a cave collided with a bigger vessel, Vietnam Television said.
Twelve people died last year when a tourist boat sank at night at Halong Bay, raising concerns about safety standards at the UNESCO World Heritage site, one of Vietnam's top tourist attractions known for its stunning limestone cliffs.
