Malaysian who fell into coma in Istanbul dies
DAP rep thanks those who came forward to help Chin Yun Hin's family, says there is no longer a need to raise funds.
A 52-year-old Malaysian man, Chin Yun Hin, who was admitted to a coma in Istanbul, has passed away, according to a Facebook post from DAP's R Rajiv. The Bukit Gasing assemblyman expressed gratitude towards those who contributed to the appeal for funds to bring Chin back home. Chin's condition worsened while he was in Istanbul, transiting from England, as he developed a fever that prevented him from flying back.
Doctors speculated that the fever was due to a lung-related condition. His brother, Yein Meng, had previously stated that the family required between RM500,000 and RM700,000 to transport Chin home via air ambulance, taking into account the additional costs for ongoing hospital treatment and medication in Turkey.
