KOTA KINABALU: China will respect any decision by Malaysia in the search for three Chinese nationals who are still missing following the Jan 28 catamaran tragedy.
“We are thankful to the Malaysian authorities for this prolonged search effort. We understand that under normal circumstances, such a search would last seven days,” said China's consul-general here Chen Peijie.
