According to China Press, it was reported that when the tragic incident happened, the man was with his son and daughter-in-law. The distance between their residence and the clinic was only a 2 minute drive but when they arrive at the clinic, it was not open.

Following that, his son and daughter-in-law then decided to send him to the hospital. The nearest hospital that they could find was located over 10km away from Teluk Intan but as they were rushing him to the hospital, he tragically passed away.

His body was then sent to a hospital for autopsy and the cause of death was determined to be choking.

Not long after his passing, the couple then only realised that there was an emergency button that could be pressed at the clinic they stopped by. The emergency button would then alert a medical personnel to attend to urgent matters even if the clinic is not opened.

Immense guilt was felt by the man’s son and he felt as though he could have saved his father’s life. Fortunately, their relatives and family members were understanding of the situation and weren’t harsh on him.

Our deepest condolences to the family involved and we hope they’ll be able to heal from this traumatic incident.
