Making sacrifices, deep in the jungle


THE jungle is no place for a soldier who is homesick. I experienced this on a rare outing in deep mountainous terrain away from Baling, Kedah, 24 years ago.

Members of the security forces had to man posts in remote jungle areas at the Malaysian-Thai border on a 24-hour basis.
