SINGAPORE (The Straits Times/Asia News Network): The family of a woman, who died after being flung out of a tour bus in a 2018 accident in Malaysia, will get about S$650,000 in compensation as the case concluded before the High Court.

The court, which issued brief oral grounds earlier this month on damage assessment, took into account the Singaporean's life expectancy and career retirement age in determining the claims sought by her estate.
