BEIJING - Two Chinese sailors remain missing after their cargo ships were hijacked on Oct 5, Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Liu Weimin said at a news briefing on Monday.

Xinhua News Agency earlier cited Thai authorities saying that all 13 Chinese crewmen were dead, and searchers found the last body in nearby Chiang Khong District early on Monday.

However, Thai investigators later said two of the 13 bodies they recovered did not belong to Chinese sailors, correcting the death toll of Chinese sailors to 11 killed and two missing.
