The search and rescue operation was called off at 10pm. According to Fire and Rescue Department deputy director-general Datuk Soiman Jahid, the dead included the driver of the bus.
It is believed that the driver had lost control of the bus, which then rammed a divider before plunging down the gorge.
Some of the passengers were flung from the bus during the incident.
According to the police, more than half the passengers on the bus were foreigners, from China, Bangladesh and Thailand.
The bus was also overloaded as its capacity was 44 passengers, authorities said.
Bas itu membawa lebih penumpang... kenapa dibawa lebih penumpang?.. sebabnya JPJ hanya sibuk menguatkuasakan undang-undang terhadap bas pada musim perayaan sahaja..
