Pasaban and her team passed their doubts also to Miss Hawley. "Miss Oh and her Sherpa told my assistant that they both summited Kangchenjunga and we had no reason to doubt them," Liz told BBC. "This same Sherpa is now with Miss Oh on Annapurna 1. My assistant will re-interview this Sherpa when he returns to Kathmandu.

“The only picture that anyone has seen shows Miss Oh standing on bare rock. But Miss Pasaban showed me a picture of her team on the summit, and they are standing on snow." She said she would continue to include Oh’s 2009 Kanchenjunga ascent in the database, but would describe it as “disputed” in future editions.


Have you read BBC's article :?:

Eduardo Martínez de Pisón - ¿Debe Miss Oh probar la accesión de Kanchenjunga?

Yup
So:
Nationalism, as all -isms, is shet.

This is not nationalism. It's the race for the 8000ers...

In a Miss Hawley's interview that I could read she said that there is no need to take a picture on the summit, 20 meters below would be sufficient...
