Fisherman braves storms despite warnings


Danger at the seas: A screen grab at 3.30pm yesterday showed the cyclone over the South China Sea is posing a threat to coastal areas in the east coast of Peninsular Malaysia, bringing strong winds up to 60kmh and waves up to 4.5m high.

PETALING JAYA: Fishermen have been warned against going out to sea as Tropical Storm Pabuk forms off the coasts between Terengganu, Kelantan and Sarawak.

But risking strong winds and big waves to put food on the table is nothing new for Azmi Awang, 44.
