Don't Cakap Besar

Today's big news in the papers and tv was about the rescues of the four boys lost in Frasers Hill and the man and boy lost in Cameron Highlands. Thanks to the Orang Asli trekkers and the rescue units for finding them.Thank God,everyone is safe. I hope people will not try to go hill trekking without expert guides and experienced trekkers.By the way,the man who got lost in Cameron Highlands claims he is a seasoned and expert hill trekker but he still got lost. People say you must never `cakap besar' (boast) in these parts of the country (jungled hills/mountains/rivers) because some `inhabitants' do not like boasters and those who misbehave in their 'territory' and they will teach you a lesson you'll never forget forever.
