Brought up in the Roman Catholic faith, Nari followed his parents to coastal town Dalat, Sarawak where his father taught. There he had his primary school education and later followed his uncle to Kuching to study at the Green Road Secondary School. After completing his Form 5, Nari returned to his longhouse in Bukit Aup and had worked as a tourist guide before entering St Peter’s Seminary for two years. He had wanted to become a Catholic priest, but after two years with a Kuching seminary, he opted to become an air steward with MAS in 1989.
“Because he is fluent in English, Nari had been serving international routes. He always flies to Western destinations to cities like Los Angeles and London. As far as I know, he seldom flies the Eastern routes like Beijing, Korea and Japan. We fear he might have met his fate on March 8,” his uncle, Augustine said.
Andrew’s wife is a former stewardess who resigned after the couple had two children, Malcom, 14 and Maira Elizabeth, 18. Nari’s mother, Catherine Tamoh left on March 8 to Kuala Lumpur where she has been waiting for news from Putrajaya concerning the cabin crew chief. ATWMY-019-2
