In a Facebook post, his granddaughter, Sandra Thomas, said the Bomba and her dad had searched the whole house but could not find him.

She feared that her grandfather, an Iban, might have panicked at the sight of the rising floodwaters and left the house.

He was last seen at 3am. He is capable of speaking Iban and Bahasa Malaysia.
