Our cousin Shri is a passionate climber, trekker, and avid traveler. He has loved nature for as long as we can remember. A month ago, he set out from Singapore to Nepal to summit Mt. Everest with Nepal Guide Treks, and Seven Summit. This was after preparing himself rigorously these past 12 months. 

On the morning of the 19th of May, he successfully summited Everest. But on his way down, he seems to have suffered frostbite and altitude sickness. As a result, he seems to have separated himself from the rest of his group and fallen down at around 8000m, likely onto the Tibetan side of the mountain. An able team of sherpas has begun the search operation this morning, but we realise we have got to do more and act faster. 

We need support from all the governments' authorities. We have contacted some of them, and need your support in making sure our voices reach them. This matter needs to be brought to their attention on an urgent basis. We need a special rescue team that is trained to operate in such risky terrain, as well as to ensure that this whole rescue op is not hindered by diplomatic paperwork (given Tibet, Nepal). Only with their support can we ensure that Shri is found as soon as possible! We will be forever grateful for your support!

Shri's family is really devastated. But we also do not want to lost hope. We want to find him and bring him back home. Please help us find him by signing and sharing this petition. Shri, we have so much we want to do with you - keep the faith.
