Yet another poses atop ‘IPOH’ signage, snaps selfie
.
PETALING JAYA: After a group of youths recently apologised for scaling the “IPOH” signage, another youth has since emerged on social media pulling off the same stunt.
Known as “kerabupauh” on Instagram, the youth has been pictured standing atop the letter “P”, while another shows him snapping pictures of himself with a selfie stick.
Both pictures were taken on top of the Jalan Kuala Kangsar landmark. The four letters are said to be over 100 metres tall, equivalent to the height of a building of about 30 to 40 stories high.
Another picture had also emerged depicting the defiant youth sitting under the Gunung Lang Recreational Park signboard, which is similar to the “IPOH” signage.
“I apologise for merely wearing Japanese slippers,” the caption read in Bahasa Malaysia.

STS : Lovers could not pull apart after sex

Lovers could not pull apart after sex
>Could this be a belated AF’s story?
IPOH – A pair of adulterers had to be rushed naked from a village here
to hospital in an ambulance after sexual intercourse because they
could not ‘pull apart’.
The 50-year-old woman had taken an aphrodisiac similar to Viagra which
caused her to be abnormally excited.
Unfortunately, this not only heightened the couple’s sexual pleasure
but also resulted in her 60-year-old partner being unable to
disengage.
The couple panicked and yelled for help from neighbours who called an
ambulance, Malaysia’s China Press reported yesterday.
Naked and still joined together at their private parts, the red-faced
couple had to be carried up the ambulance like a pair of Siamese
twins, according to scores of amused fellow villagers.
The couple was finally separated at the local hospital after being
given an injection.
But their embarrassment is not over. They are now having to put up
with stares and sniggers from their fellow villagers as news of their
‘adventure’ is spreading like brush fire.
