SINGAPORE: Taiwan authorities are in touch with the families of the two Singaporeans missing after Wednesday’s 7.2-magnitude earthquake that struck off Hualien.Â
Taiwan’s immigration agency said that the missing pair are a married couple.
They have been identified as Sim Hwee Kok and Neo Siew Choo, according to a Facebook group named Hualien Earthquake Relief Information.
The administrator of the group, Sunny Sandro Wang, said on Saturday (Apr 6) that he had managed to contact the man’s sister and that she was preparing to travel to Taiwan.Â
He also appealed for more information on where the couple were last seen.
“If you ever see them somewhere, please let us know when and where as soon as possible,” Wang added, as he shared a photo of the husband and wife.
According to Singapore Mandarin news platform 8World, they were last seen boarding a tourist shuttle bus on Wednesday morning. They were en route to Tianxiang in Hualian County, when they alighted halfway.Â
