My friend just got 19 stitches on the head after being robbed by
a guy he was trying to help at a petrol station in JB. Happened
only yesterday. He was a biker thats why I posted here. I just came
back from visiting him in the hospital. This incident should be on
the malay newspapers soon because a reporter came to
interview.
Excerpt from the article (pictures and whole story):
Turned out he got robbed at a
petrol station in JB, not far from customs, while topping up petrol
for his bike. An innocent-looking Malay guy approached him for
help, needed Rosdee to help him onto the roof to retrieve his bike
keys. So Rosdee followed him to a corner, pointed to a roof and
asked if it was the correct one. The moment Rosdee looked down, the
guy took out a parang (Rosdee said it was more of a sword than a
parang, because the tip was long enough to touch the ground).
Rosdee was told to hand over all his valuables, but Rosdee said he
had none. He wasn't intending to put up a struggle or anything. The
guy slashed his head three times...

Always take precautions when you're in JB. Totally twisted
place.
