Merdeka! Merdeka!



It's not as easy as it looks. The specially made bunting weights a tonne especially when the wind's blowing. It's not the most aerodynamic thingy to carry around. And contrary to what the other contestant is blogging about....

QUOTE  "so anyway i wanna express my dissatisfaction about other contestants who have MADE A NEW BUNTING OF THEMSELVES AND THE ISPC IN ONE and walk around with it HIGH IN THE AIR with the word 'spot me' on it...probably expecting to be spotted by a camera far away maybe...(ya ya i get it..but i thought one contestant was supposed to have ONE cardboard cut-out?)

i am sure the other 4 contestants who were with me today would say the EXACT SAME THING
that is not fair especially for those of us who have been about carrying the ISPC and stopping to pose with it and hand the name and ic stuff over..explain....
i don't call that 'creative'.....i call that CHEATING
not to mention that the ISPC (the real one) when gets caught with wind...gets really tough to handle (but that is part of the competition) " UNQUOTE


Here's my take on it: If you have thought about the scenario beforehand, you would have thought about getting Ika, Serena C and Pietro cutouts to stand out in the massive crowd of Merdeka revellers and I'm sorry it didn't dawn upon you to think out of the box and get yourself spotted in other creative ways. It's not easy to carry the cutouts and also the bunting around. I rest my case




Ika, Serena C and Pietro cutout, bunting and myself with Malaysia's tallest Jalur Gemilang in the background

Spotted by this lady whom I forgot to note her name down. Good luck on the RM200 quest!
