Fire Dept working with Public Service Dept to ensure welfare of two officers missing in Nepal

PUTRAJAYA, Sept 14 — The Fire and Rescue Department (JBPM) is ensuring the well-being of its two missing officers after flash floods in Rasuwa, Nepal last month. Director-General Datuk Seri Nor Hisham Mohammad revealed that JBPM sought advice from the Public Service Department (PSD) regarding the officers' salaries and pensions.

Deputy Director of Planning and Research Division Mohd Sani Harul is scheduled to retire on September 23, while Central Region Academy officer Mohd Fakhrul Munir Mohd Isa still has a considerable number of years left in service. The two officers were part of a group of ten Malaysians who left for Nepal on August 24 to reach Everest Base Camp (EBC).

The Foreign Ministry announced today that 55 Malaysians are still unaccounted for due to the floods and landslides in Nepal and China, and authorities are still working to determine the status of each individual.
