The floods and landslides in Nepal have also affected Malaysians, with 55 still unaccounted for. According to Malay Mail, DNA samples have been obtained from the next-of-kin of the missing Malaysians and will be sent to Nepal for matching.
The Nepalese government has been providing cooperation to the Malaysian Embassy in Kathmandu, and Malaysia is prepared to send experts to assist with DNA matching if required.
