The family is paying private rescue because the state response hasn't scaled to match the timeline. If Australian consular services could deliver search coordination they would cite which Peruvian agency is leading ground operations instead of watching the family hire the only group that already proved it can extract someone alive from that exact circuit.

Local mountain rescue organisation Socorro Andino Peruano has been hired by Yap's family to help with the search. His loved ones are holding out hope the rescue group, which recently rescued a Canadian trekker from the same trail, will be able to find him safe.

    lol consular doing coordination heavy lifting. Of course hired rescue needs to sound like backup when the actual tell is once the family pays the same crew that just pulled the Canadian out you've already admitted the state response was someone refreshing email in Lima, because at that point timeline just means everyone knew which org had the trail GPS and it wasn't the one that writes we are monitoring the situation into a pdf no hiker's ever gonna read.
