‘Missing’ girl was on holiday with a male friend

What say you on the issue below?

SEREMBAN: While her parents were frantically searching for her for four days, Form Two student Lee Yong Hwa was holidaying at Gen­­­­­­-ting Highlands with a male schoolmate.

She returned home early yesterday morning after her parents went to the press on Monday to try and find her.

The 14-year-old said she had followed her 15-year-old friend to the hill resort and had no intention of worrying her parents.

“I called my parents as soon as I realised what I did was wrong. I’m glad to be home and I just want everything to go back to normal,” she said.

Her father sales manager Lee Yuen Yeow, 57, said he was relieved to have his only child back.

”She called us on Wednesday night,” he said at a press conference yesterday.

Yuen Yeow and his wife Tan Mei Lee enlisted the help of MCA Youth Central Committee member Jason Lee Kee Chong to locate the missing girl.

Yong Hwa was last seen by schoolmates leaving her school premises in Sikamat near here just minutes after her father dropped her off on Monday morning.

Yuen Yeow said his daughter’s well-being was his priority and he hoped that she would now focus on her studies.
