17 Malaysians travelling together with Nepal agency remain uncontactable
KUALA LUMPUR: Seventeen Malaysians travelling with Nepal-based agency Fishtail Tours & Travels remain uncontactable after devastating flash floods swept through Rasuwa district in Nepal.
Seventeen Malaysians, traveling with Nepalese agency Fishtail Tours & Travels, are currently untraceable following severe flash floods in Nepal's Rasuwa district, according to agency representative Roshan Panday. The group was last seen near Timure, near the Nepal-China border, as they journeyed together in a convoy of six cars.
Panday informed the New Straits Times that all 17 Malaysians were traveling together when their last contact was made at 8:18am local time. Despite continuous efforts, the agency has been unable to locate the group due to the destruction of roads and subsequent lack of road access. Search operations have been intensified, utilizing helicopters and drones, but aerial access remains the primary method for now, with road reconstruction estimated to take at least a year.
