Rudyard Kipling"
“When you're left wounded on Afganistan's plains and
the women come out to cut up what remains, Just roll to your rifle
and blow out your brains,
And go to your God like a soldier”
General Douglas MacArthur"
“We are not retreating. We are advancing in another direction.”
“It is fatal to enter any war without the will to win it.” “Old soldiers never die; they just fade away.
“The soldier, above all other people, prays for peace, for he must suffer and be the deepest wounds and scars of war.”
“May God have mercy upon my enemies, because I won't .” “The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his.
“Nobody ever defended, there is only attack and attack and attack some more.
“It is foolish and wrong to mourn the men who died. Rather we should thank God that such men lived.
The Soldier stood and faced God
Which must always come to pass
He hoped his shoes were shining
Just as bright as his brass
"Step forward you Soldier,
How shall I deal with you?
Have you always turned the other cheek?
To My Church have you been true?"
"No, Lord, I guess I ain't
Because those of us who carry guns
Can't always be a saint."
I've had to work on Sundays
And at times my talk was tough,
And sometimes I've been violent,
Because the world is awfully rough.
But, I never took a penny
That wasn't mine to keep.
Though I worked a lot of overtime
When the bills got just too steep,
The Soldier squared his shoulders and said
And I never passed a cry for help
Though at times I shook with fear,
And sometimes, God forgive me,
I've wept unmanly tears.
I know I don't deserve a place
Among the people here.
They never wanted me around
Except to calm their fears.
If you've a place for me here,
Lord, It needn't be so grand,
I never expected or had too much,
But if you don't, I'll understand."
There was silence all around the throne
Where the saints had often trod
As the Soldier waited quietly,
For the judgment of his God.
"Step forward now, you Soldier,
You've borne your burden well.
Walk peacefully on Heaven's streets,
You've done your time in Hell."
Daredevil climber tells how she bypassed Merdeka 118 security, Malaysians fume
Thursday, January 05, 2023
Daredevil climber....
Security slumber...
James bond caper..
A scrpt for hollywood moviemaker...
Brave lass made known security blunder...
A tall building built by thieves that plunder...
Government coffers for bribe offersdown under...
Criminals get away but daredevils questioned, by thunder....
Her account of her climb without rousing suspicion a humiliating factor - Loga
I say well done outwitting our "lopong" security!! Improvise, adapt and overcome. Security have only themselves to blame, name the Security Company that man's that place and who is in charge.
Malaysiakini : One of the daredevil Russian climbers who recently trespassed the
Merdeka 118 tower before climbing to its top took to Twitter last night
to detail how she managed to slip past security and construction
workers.
Angela Nikolau's proud recount of her experience climbing
the skyscraper, however, did not go down well with Malaysian netizens,
many of whom had expressed their dismay with the woman and her partner's
"disrespect" of the country's laws.
According to Nikolau, she had
scouted the building to gather important details and plan the attempt
by renting an apartment with a good view of Merdeka 118 for several
weeks.
In a bid to avoid detection, the woman who dubbed herself
as a “rooftopper” said she wore a hijab, glasses and donned a
construction worker's outfit, and ran her way up 32 floors before taking
a rest.
"I had to lie down on the concrete floor naked to cool down a little
bit. I drank all the water I had," she said in one of her tweets, which
was attached with photos of herself in disguise and another of her
top-half shirtless body.
The woman, who is now being investigated
by police, claimed that someone later noticed her presence before she
had to run away and hid in a concrete box, where she spent more than 20
hours hiding from builders who were doing their work.
According
to the woman, she then took the opportunity to sneak in when the
workers went away for their break - and continued her climb to the
rooftop. "The spire itself was 53 floors high - and I was wearing a
15 kg backpack. If you look at the previous photo, you won't even see
the bottom. I'm not sure I'd climb it if I knew how high it was.
Michael Ian : I know of a sly old man who did more damage to Malaysia and Malaysians.
This duo practically became the unofficial tourist ambassadors of KL without using taxpayers money!
A foreigner can get assassinated in KLIA in broad daylight and the Malaysian authorities could not do anything.
Compared to that, MERDEKA 118 is a walk in the park! Can be assured, the authorities will still be seeing stars!
Hmmmmmmmm : What is done is done. Since there was no physical damage to any part of the building, just let it slide. Afterall, we got free publicity from it. Just make sure we tighten our security from here on.
On a different note, I doubt we will ever see such a feat from any Malaysian because parents here will scold their children for even climbing trees.
GreenCheetah0027 : Why would Malaysians want to achieve such feat? It is stupid to risk one's own life just for a moment of fame!
BaNZ : Malaysians?? We do that day in day out. Have you seen the Mat Rempits and food riders? It is not even for fame! Sheer stupidity and brainless. At least these whites had a goal.
BadCaptain : Unlike the many coward Malaysians criticising the daredevil Russian girl, she actually exposed our 3rd world mentality and demonstrated the many weaknessess and lapses in our security system.Useless dumb netizens talk too much only arm chair experts and offer Zero Solutions
ANNONYMOUS : Malaysian netizens, many of whom had expressed their dismay with the woman and her partner's "disrespect" of the country's laws, and spewing racism??!!
Ah.......pls stop your hypocritical sanctimonious crap!
I'm certain if it was Zakir Naik's child who had scaled this structure, he would've been celebrated, no?
There are a hundred worse things to be angry about eg: the recent violence & abuse of a minor, child marriages & many other more hideous criminals who are still loved & FORGIVEN!
If the climb is true, No issue to me at all!!
In the midst of the endless crimes & sins plaguing the country last 60 years, this is a breath of fresh air and great publicity for our country FREE OF CHARGE as this recorded feat and the magnificient Merdeka 118 Tower is going viral all over the world!
We should invite this special couple (and French Spiderman) with such fearless talent as a promotional gimmick to arouse global interest during the official opening of this great structure!
What these heroes did was nothing and harmless to others, and as a matter of fact, they've helped to promote this awesome new gem, Merdeka 118, compared to the Zakir Naiks, the extremist Muftis, hate-preachers and corrupt in power freely climbing every peak of corruption/ hate-speech and racism and reaching the highest peak and Guinness World Record for the world's biggest corruption scandal that shook the Financial world, and trampling on the rakyat and ruining our country's image the last 60 years, with impunity, and still many are walking free and FORGIVEN!!
I must thank them and really take my hat off to this great feat & special talent of these RARE & courageous climbers & human beings, like the French Spiderman, Alain Robert, who is respected and embraced all over the world, France's national hero.
On 20 March 2007, French Spiderman, Alain Robert again climbed the Petronas Twin Towers, marking the tenth anniversary of his previous ascent of this building. Upon reaching the 60th floor, he allowed himself to be apprehended. He flew the Malaysian flag and drew applause from waiting police, fire crew and media representatives before handing himself in.
They are God's gift to humanity.
Thanks to this outstanding feat & for the viral video, if not, i wouldn't have known this beautiful structure Merdeka 118 even existed at all! I thought it was just another building!
Appum : We should just take this as a wakeup call to our inefficient and lax security in our system instead of going after these daredevils who actually put our Meedeka 118 Tower and Malaysia on the world map! Imagine if domestic and international terrorists get into our tower as easily....
