Singaporean diver Rinta Paul Mukkam remained missing as night fell yesterday after a second day of searching, with the Indonesian authorities pledging to continue the effort this morning.

Ms Rinta, 40, had been diving off the famed Komodo Island on Thursday when she failed to resurface with her group.

Search efforts have so far spanned a radius of more than 200km.

Ms Rinta had started her dive at about 11.40am that day at a site off Gili Lawa Laut island.

According to one woman in the group of 16 Singaporeans she was in, a boat had dropped them off at the spot and left to pick up other divers.

But Ms Rinta, who is an associate regional sales manager, did not surface with the other divers, said the Singaporean woman, who declined to be named.

She added that it was sunny at the time and they had been briefed by the dive master to be prepared for a drift dive - where divers are carried by the current.

The divers were then split into smaller groups for the dive. It is unclear what happened to Ms Rinta's "buddy". Divers typically dive in groups of two or three as a safety precaution, in a buddy system where members look out for one another.

According to West Manggarai regency police chief Supiyanto, Ms Rinta was in a group with a local diver known as Ajidan.

As they dived to the 4m depth, Ms Rinta stopped and swam back to a shallower 2m depth, while her three other friends continued to dive deeper to 15m as planned.

"When Rinta was diving towards the 2m depth, she signalled to the (local) diver to continue and accompany her three friends to the seabed (at a depth of 15m)," Mr Supiyanto said.

The group discovered that she was missing only when they had completed the dive and were boarding the boat.

"The missing tourist is suspected to have been swept away by currents at the depth of 2m, at the point where she was to surface and get onto the boat," added Mr Supiyanto.

According to those familiar with the area, Gili Lawa Laut, a popular diving spot, is also known for strong currents and relatively cold waters.

Mr Gede Ardana, head of rescue agency Badan SAR Kupang (Basarnas), told Indonesian media that his agency received a missing persons report at 2.30pm on Thursday. His agency then sent a team of six rescuers to the location by motorboat to carry out a search.

Yesterday evening, Basarnas told The Straits Times that boat operators and Komodo-based dive centres were also helping out in the search operation.

The current search-and-rescue efforts are focused on the region west of Flores Island, which is located in West Manggarai in Indonesia.

Ms Rinta's brother Roy Paul Mukkam, a 36-year-old lawyer, posted on Facebook on Thursday evening asking for help and information in locating his sister.

Seriously guys, she is lost at sea and likely to have lost her life. You find joy in this. We are a majority in this country and we are obsessed by a minority. Instead of voting of PAP that allowed foreigners to come in, you guys spend your time chasing this sort of stories. Reminds me of bullies in Primary school that take pocket money from the younger kids.

Aren't you finding joy spending time chasing and obsessed with PAP, foreigners and last but not least Mr Shanmugam as well? Reminds me of primary school prefects who rat out bullies so that they can be the only bullies themselves. Everyone has an obsession. Stick to yours and no one will call you hypocrite.

That girl is probably dead. Try picking on someone that can defend him or herself.

I beg to differ. Don't see things in absolute black and white. Try to discern the possible grey shades in between. She is lost at sea and her brother is using Facebook for help? Who is she? What was she like? What's her financial situation? Is she covered by insurance policies worth millions? I don't unzip my pants even when a beautiful girl smile and start undressing in front of me. I'll still wait for more evidence of intent.

nothing wrong with your thread title, and nothing misleading or opinionated in your original thread-starting post. you're just reposting what's from st on a missing person. tragic but word needs to go out, including social media. she's fair and lovely alright. hopefully she swims to shore and is stranded but safe somewhere. chances are slim though.
