The family of N. Kalaiselvi, a 65-year-old Malaysian who remains missing in Nepal, is urging the government to bring all missing Malaysian victims home, regardless of their condition. Kalaiselvi's daughter, Kritikaa Joyce De Brito, appreciated the Malaysian government's efforts in coordinating the search and rescue mission, but acknowledged that the situation in the affected area was dire.
She emphasized that if the missing Malaysians were found, their chances of survival were very slim due to the conditions in the forest or under eight feet of mud. The family requested that the ministry channel official updates and verified information directly to the next of kin to curb speculation and the spread of false information.
Currently, 72 Malaysians in Darchen, China, are safe and receiving consular assistance, while 55 remain uncontactable at the Nepal border.
