I was one of the passengers who took the flight from Kuala Lumpur (Malaysia) to Melbourne (Australia) on 16 March. Unfortunately, my suitcase did not come out after the flight. Although I have explained this to Mr. Johnson who was in charge at the luggage Claim office and promised to give me a call within next 24 hours, but this did not happen.
My suitcase is a dark brown leather with black handle. Inside the suitcase, you will find some cloths, souvenirs for friends I will visit. There are few books and two copies of a business proposal which I need for the presentation on 30 March.
