Cement Wreck Labuan

The Cement Wreck, originally the Japanese MV Tung Hwang, was a freighter that sank while transporting cement to Brunei for the Sultan's new palace in 25 September 1980. It hit the Samarang Bank and sank as it tried to reach Labuan for repairs. Fortunately, no lives were lost. The vessel is 92 meters long, 15 meters wide and 7.5 meters deep. The wreck now lies east of Kuraman Island and just 21 km from Labuan.
