And of course, there were a number of ppl at the peak during that time.
9am, MGs semua kene suruh tunggu, until 3pm, “jgn naik dulu,jgn naik dulu”
Imagine 6hrs the ppl up there sna puncak mcm mna oh. Scary giler. Mau tdk mau, the MGs, dari Laban Rata, started climbing to the peak.
Of course during the wait, bomba, rela, tentera, ambulancehttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🚑" title="Rettungswagen" aria-label="Emoji: Rettungswagen"> kena-

panggil. But like since they were like far down the Kinabalu’s foot, MGs dulu la search and rescue. And like I said, they journeyed from Laban Rata.
Numero très:
Along the way to the peak, dorang cari survivors dulu. From the MG himself, from what my sister has been told, survivors that he encountered was, one orang putih and a child, which was a primary school student.
U KNOOW, the matsalleh was badly injured-

So the MG had to angkat him la like piggy back ride him, and he kept on screaming and shouting, (bcuz he was physically hurt and mentally traumatised) dahlah MG tu stress bagai en, apa lagi, tu MG sumbat mulut tu orang dgn epal la. https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="💀" title="Schädel" aria-label="Emoji: Schädel"> (dari mana tu epal? He came prepared I guess)
The kid, yg primary school tu, kesian gilaaa https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🥺" title="Pleading face" aria-label="Emoji: Pleading face">

Numero quatro:
Oh ya, when the MGs like mau dekat2 alr the peak, what they saw on the ‘Ferrata’, were dead bodies hanging on it. Like along the ferrata and around the area la, DEAD BODIES, tergantung on the Ferrata.
(This is a Ferrata at the Kinabalu)

The MGs dont refer the dead as “mayat” they call it ‘barang’. So mcm they were having a short discussion la, “okey, kita angkat semua tu ‘barang’...” and like they went on for a day retrieving dead bodies. Naik turun naik turun.
The thing is, they angkat the barang, on their-

(It took sometime for the tentera,rela, ambulance & bomba to come up at the Laban Rata, mcm mna tdk, its at 3272m https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="🤩" title="Vom Star geblendet" aria-label="Emoji: Vom Star geblendet">) anyway, yeee they carried all of THEM on their backs.
Any sight of human remains ke apa, ambil ambil ambil. For the sake of DNA la, siapa ini siapa itu. Angkat ‘barang’, journey back to Laban Rata. And rasanya dari area2 Ferrata to Laban Rata bukan main lagi jauh dia.

The walls of the rock, all smeared in human blood. Bodies dah jatuh2 kat down there, and they have to get off trail to cari the barang. Of coz la MG themselves pun takod, ingat orang2 karas tdk pandai takut meh.

It was gruesome. Six months after the tragedy, the blood on the-
walls are still there. Fresh af looking. It was preserved, kan sejuk2 lagi sana. Now, if ure going to the Kinabalu, I don’t think ull see it bcause it faded into the rock kan. (Make sense no? Yes)
Numero five:(whats five in spanish)
So you could imagine the horrific sight that was happening at the Laban Rata (especially).
A number of dead bodies, even body parts man..tangan ada, jantung pun ada. They’ll even take a piece of skin, just to know who it belongs to.

Tapi mmg gilaaa la I respect those Malim Gunungs, they did that in a day. U might think that its like oh thats normal to climb a 4095m gunung in a day, up and down. But no plis.
Dorang naik turun naik turun, angkat ‘barang’, cari any human remains, survivors around the mountain!! Not only along the trail. Boleh imagine baa, malam alr, gelap, sejuk with the embun, pakai torchlight searching for bodies. Sape tak takod?? What if u terserempak a face in-
the bushes. It certainly does take guts to get through.
So much respect at everyone who were involved in the search and rescue especially to the Malim Gunungshttps://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="✊🏻" title="Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)" aria-label="Emoji: Erhobene Faust (heller Hautton)"> https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht">https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="😭" title="Laut schreiendes Gesicht" aria-label="Emoji: Laut schreiendes Gesicht"> Im just amazed at their commitment, bravery semua lah.

- its like, during that time I couldve been sad over a cancelled drama series, n at the same day, kecoh at the Kinabalu.
As I was listening to my sister talking abt this, I felt like crying. It was soo saddening. It’s like a hint of realisation to be always thankful!!!
