MIRI: They are just simple drawings and letters by a bunch of kids but they contain poignant messages reflecting the anxiety and longing of young children whose fathers have been missing for days in the deep interior of Sarawak. 

The children of those on board the helicopter that lost contact with ground control on July 12 sent these very touching messages to the authorities and the search and rescue unit personnel in Bario and Bakelalan.
