My new discovery on Pok Loh Tut..

Guess what? I found something on Pok Loh Tut.. hehe.. he did exist! Laaa..Tok Choh dok wat lolok ghupenye..Cuma auta sikit je..pasal taik mata beso lutut..

Awang Goneng wrote in his blog:

"Pak Lah Tut came from Seberang Takir, across the river, every morning; wielding a stout staff and a heavy burden. And all he did when he arrived was to walk his few paces, then he'd freeze his footsteps in between, before twirling his alarming twirl while mouthing some wild incantations. And so he did every minute of his time, until the shutters were closed, and the shoppers were gone. He was a regular man of the marketplace, distinguishable from the milling crowd by his white beard and tatty headband, and a look that told little of him or what he was on, except that somewhere along the line, perhaps when he was very young, he'd veered off the centre of his mind."

Then, he later commented to ceklong:

"Salams. Yes, Pak Lah Tut did exist. He was a regular feature of Pasar Tanjung. Hot tempered he was, cussing and spitting, but not in the profanities of today's mad people, just pure anger. He looked like Santa Claus, grey beard, and carrying a bag of his geegaws."
