Guides recall the fear and will to carry on

KUALA LUMPUR: Kinabalu Park mountain guide Safrey Sumping is always excited when it is his turn to lead a group of climbers up Mount Kinabalu, as it means a new experience each time.

It was no different on June 5. Never once did he think that he would face the most challenging experience of his life on the mountain he cherished, doing the job he loved.
