The kidnapping of pastor Raymond Koh is on the government's radar and Putrajaya has sent a minister to meet his family, says MCA deputy president Wee Ka Siong.

"The cabinet discussed the disappearance case and arranged for Minister in the Prime Minister's Department Joseph Kurup to meet with the missing pastor's family.

"The government empathises with the anxiety experienced by the pastor's family. This incident is of deep concern to the government and the public.

"The police have been instructed to investigate this case thoroughly and quickly to locate the whereabouts of pastor Koh," Wee said in a statement today.
