Foreign Office Minister on Malaysian landslide

Jeremy Browne, Minister of State responsible for South East Asia and the Far East said:

This was published under the 2010 to 2015 Conservative and Liberal Democrat coalition government

I am deeply saddened to hear of the landslide which has killed orphans in Selangor State in Malaysia.

My heartfelt sympathies go out to all those involved, including the rescue workers who I know are working very hard to reach as many people as quickly as possible.

I visited Malaysia only recently and I know how deeply this tragedy will be felt by all Malaysians.
