A modest proposal

Dear relative/friend of someone once listed as missing in Nepal,

the whole Internet community shares your relief and joy that a loved one has either been located or evacuated to Kathmandu or even repatriated to his/her home nation.

Since we have unfortunately experienced some shortcomings of a few nations' authorities in regard of intelligence gathering for a quick and efficient establishment of people's whereabouts we kindly ask you to share this Instagram collection of photos & details of those still missing in Langtang & elsewhere in Nepal with the one you have just learned is safe now. 

Of course we understand that people need some time to recover from their ordeal and are glad when they are in a civilized environment without having to fear for their lives on a daily basis. It's OK when you give them the time needed to recuperate, but for the sake of other families' 'peace of mind' we kindly ask you to share those photos whenever you deem the time is ripe to so. 

If your relative or friend has any recollection of persons on that photo collection, the smallest lead could help, please contact
