MELAKA: Patriotism triumphed over pain when two middle-aged Civil Defence Force (APM) corporate officers turned up at a Merdeka gathering here despite their health conditions.
Associate Corporate Major (PA) Datuk Lwee Wan Tiong, 56, who is battling serious gout and Associate Corporate Capt (PA) B. Kumaran, 59, a seasoned seafarer and diver recovering from knee surgery, stood side by side with fellow officers with pride and love for the nation.
