Wind of Destruction ...




The latest update, the Sports and Youth Complex in Kangar ground is undergoing a major reconstruction. At the moment half of the recreational area has already been demolished. We were informed that a new building will be erected on what used to be the playground for skateboarding, BMX, wall climbing and the ever present netball players.

There is mix feelings among us, we are happy that now the Youth and Sports Department will be expanding but we do wonder how soon would it take for the wall structure to be moved and assembled at a new location. It's the only wall that is accessible for the public (there's another one at Timah Tasoh Camp but not for the public) and for the past years has been our training spot and rendezvous. As you can see from the photos, it's so close now to the wall and we expect it'll be a matter of days before they're going to dismantle it.

We do hope it's not going to take that long as we have nowhere else to climb. One can't expect us to make the Keteri hill or Gua Kelam (Cave of Darkness) to be our daily destinations..!
