A Malaysian climber has been rescued after nearly two days alone near the summit of a Nepalese mountain.
Wui Kin Chin, 48, was stranded for 40 hours without an oxygen bottle, food or water on Mt Annapurna earlier this week. He was part of a larger international expedition and reached the summit but was separated from the others as they descended the 8,091m-high mountain. Mr Chin, who is an anaesthesiologist and experienced climber, was rescued on Thursday after he was spotted by a helicopter search crew.Mr Chin, an anaesthesiologist, is described as being in a critical condition
Four sherpas brought him down to a lower camp and he was transferred by helicopter to hospital in Nepal's capital Kathmandu on Friday, where he was joined by his wife.
