A minibus carrying Chinese tourists has plunged into a ravine on the Indonesian holiday island of Bali, leaving six people dead and three fighting for their lives, an official said Tuesday.

Four Chinese tourists, the Indonesian driver and a tour guide died when the accident happened Monday as the bus tried to pass along a road towards a popular, cliff-top Hindu temple.

Prime Minister Tony Abbott Wednesday announced a scheme to compensate Australian victims of overseas terror attacks and their families as he laid a wreath at the site of the 2002 Bali bombings.

Flanked by his wife Margie and Bali governor I Made Mangku Pastika, Abbott bowed his head during the solemn ceremony at a stone monument that honors the 202 people, mostly foreign tourists, who died in the attacks.

Miss Philippines was Saturday crowned Miss World 2013 in a glittering finale on the Indonesian resort island of Bali amid tight security following weeks of hardline Muslim protests.

As hundreds of Muslim hardliners held a prayer session in a mosque near the capital to express their anger at the contest, Megan Young wept as she won the coveted title in the final on Hindu-majority Bali.

Indonesia said Saturday the final of the Miss World pageant later this month would take place on the Hindu-majority holiday island of Bali instead of near the capital, after days of Muslim hardline protests.

The announcement is the latest sign in the world's biggest Muslim-majority nation of fringe Muslim groups' growing influence on authorities and their power to stymie events they deem un-Islamic.

Indonesian investigators on Sunday began working to determine what caused a new Lion Air passenger jet to miss a runway while landing on the resort island of Bali, crashing into the sea without causing any fatalities among the 108 on board.

The National Transportation Safety Committee is examining the wreckage of the Boeing 737-800 that snapped in half before coming to a stop in shallow water near Bali's airport on Saturday, said Transportation Ministry spokesman Bambang Ervan.

Indonesia declared its highest security alert Wednesday, saying there was "credible information" of a threat against a ceremony Friday marking the 10th anniversary of the Bali bombings.

Australian Prime Minister Julia Gillard will attend Friday's service in Bali for the 202 people including 164 foreigners killed in the suicide attacks against two packed nightspots on October 12, 2002.

Indonesian anti-terrorism forces killed two suspected militants both aged 19 in an armed raid that also left an officer dead after a shoot-out, authorities said on Saturday.

"Two terror suspects were killed in Solo, central Java, on Friday night by the anti-terror police unit Detachment 88. One other was arrested," national police spokesman Boy Rafli Amar told reporters.

An Indonesian court sentenced bombmaker Umar Patek to 20 years' jail on Thursday for his role in the 2002 Bali bombings, bringing to an end a 10-year probe into the nation's deadliest act of terror.

An FBI agent testifying in the trial of the suspected Bali bomb-maker said Thursday the accused had been identified as an explosives expert by other Islamic militants and had planned to kill U.S. troops.

Indonesian prosecutors accuse Umar Patek, who was arrested last year in the same Pakistani town where U.S. commandos later killed al-Qaida chief Osama bin Laden, of constructing the bombs that killed 202 people, mostly Westerners.

Police fatally shot five men who were allegedly planning to rob money changers, jewelers and other targets on Indonesia's resort island of Bali in a suspected bid to fund terrorist attacks, officials said Monday.

Several semiautomatic guns, magazines of ammunition and masks also were recovered during separate raids on a bungalow and a boarding house late Sunday, said Saud Usman Nasution, a national police spokesman.
