Tragedies Not Justified

Updates on the tragedy from the KL Marathon

29/06/2010 Article from The Star.

I think it's just absurd! Why would Toh Yit Meng lie about the ambulance reaching only in 15-20mins? Obviously the ambulance could not have reached in 5 minutes! The man was lying there for quite a long time. It must have been more than 5 minutes! Though I wasn't there the whole time with an official timer, but it felt longer than 5 minutes, from the moment I saw a man lying at the sidewalk from far, to the time when an ambulance sped by. They're seriously trying to cover up their mistakes, and taking no responsibility whatsoever! The statement released sounded so ignorant! They refuse to admit that the situation could have been handled in a better way, then Lim would have a brighter fighting chance!

And I was considering about participating again next year. Now I'm seriously doubting it. Why bother, when the organisers wouldn't give a damn about your safety anyway? Yeah true, we should know our own health conditions firsthand, but when complications occur, that can be overcome, what's the harm of extra precautions from the organising part?!

It's sad that Lim did not get the justice he deserved. And the way the article was written in that "Oh well, just another dead person..." kind of tone is sooooo aggravating! They didn't even mention that they would improve on the medical facilities in future events! BAH!

This is what happens when you live in a country where people do not take these kind of issues seriously! They absolutely couldn't care less even when someone loses his life!

STUPID IDIOTIC TIDAK APA ATTITUDE THAT WOULDN'T CHANGE IN MILLION YEARS!
