THE Zamboanga City Police Office (ZCPO) has coordinated with the San Carlos City police in Negros Occidental to help them trace the whereabouts of the missing British businessman.
David James Rowe was reported missing on Friday by his business partner Fong Kwan Kong, a Chinese national.
Senior Superintendent Lurimer Detran, ZCPO officer-in-charge, said they have coordinated with the San Carlos City police after learning that Rowe is a resident of the said place.
Prior to his disappearance, Detran said they were informed by Kong that Rowe has asked him how and where is the fastest way in going to Negros Occidental.
Detran said they are still waiting for the reply of San Carlos City police but "our search continues."
Kong, a resident of Parañaque City, and Rowe are into auto-machine parts business.
Kong has entrusted to Rowe the amount of P420,000 to purchase auto-machine parts in Manila. (Bong P. Garcia)
