It has been more than one week since Franco-Irish teenager Nora Quoirin went missing while on holiday with her family at The Dusun resort in Seremban, and search and rescue (SAR) efforts are still ongoing in hopes that she will be found.
Now, the 15-year-old’s family has offered a reward of RM50,000 to anyone who has information that could help find Nora.

In a tearful statement from her mother, she stated that the money was donated by an anonymous business based in Belfast, Northern Ireland.
“Nora is our first child. She has been vulnerable since the day she was born. She is so precious to us and our hearts are breaking. We are appealing to anyone who has information about Nora to help us find her.”
“The police have been working extremely hard to bring Nora home. In order to help their investigation, we have decided to offer a reward. RM50,000 has been donated by an anonymous Belfast-based business for any information that directly helps us to find Nora.”
In other developments, several police officials from England, Ireland, and France are also involved in investigations. According to Bernama, Negeri Sembilan Police deputy chief SAC Che Zakaria Othman stated that these foreign police teams arrived in Malaysia last week, saying,
“The police teams (from England, France and Ireland) are only assisting us in the investigation into Nora Anne’s disappearance and are not involved in the SAR operation.”
The SAR operation is now focused on Gunung Berembun involving 176 personnel covering a 6-kilometre radius in the area.
