KUALA LUMPUR, Dec 22 (Bernama) -- The search and rescue (SAR) effort for another Malaysian climber Ramli Abd Majid who went missing on Mount Damavand, Iran on Nov 20, continues with information and photographs of the victim distributed to residents in the area. Expedition leader Rozaimi Mohd Said said pictures and information on Ramli, 44, would be distributed east and north of the Damavand area.
