KUALA LUMPUR, Aug 29 — The family of K. Balasingam, 71, a senior citizen and former businessman from Negeri Sembilan, remains anxiously awaiting news about their missing father after the flash flood disaster on the Nepal-Tibet border. Son Mures, 40, shared that his father, who joined a group of 17 Malaysians to climb Mount Kailash in Tibet for a religious ceremony, was last seen active on WhatsApp on the morning of the incident.
The group, managed by Nepal-based travel agency Fishtail Tours & Travels, comprised 55 Malaysians, 55 of whom are currently unreachable following the devastating flash floods and landslides in Rasuwa District, Nepal. Despite reaching out to the Malaysian Embassy in Kathmandu and the police for updates, the Balasingam family remains hopeful and continues to pray for their father's safe return.
