Joy Re: 2 Pisang Stories from Malaysia

Hey Scot,
Come on man, let it out! You ain't gonna pis-ang anything man. You know you have made me pretty curious and it will do good to let off the 'spectre' vibes of the stories. I mean, darn, I realised it only after I posted the thread.

It is because of the multi cultures here that we are so infused with such stories from young. Some people didn't grow out of it but we still hold alot of respect for 'whatever' in there when we go for collection trips in the deep forests. Most of the time, the aborigines will remind us of our behavior in there.

You will be surprised that even today people here are very wary when they go into the jungles. When I was in Sarawak, a land of animistic beliefs, my friend who is gung ho in most things just refused to enter the jungle with me. He waited by the car and smoked ciggies till I got out hours later.

Anyway, I have been collecting such stories out of curiosity and I have got a couple which can be very hard to believe unless you were there.
