“We couldn’t leave the house and it got boring after a while, but between boredom and risking my health, what choice did I have?,” Low Wang Nai told The Star.
He said that he was frightened by the news of the outbreak because deaths had already been declared in China.
Low said that despite being trapped at home, his girlfriend’s family had all the essentials they needed and he enjoyed all the food that his host family had prepared for him.
The contractor from Melaka even tried searching for a way to go home and fortunately found a group of Malaysians that could help.
He was one of the passengers of the AirAsia flight bringing Malaysians home from Wuhan that landed in KLIA at around 6.00 AM yesterday.
Low is currently at the surveillance centre and is feeling well.
Welcome home, Low!
