Our family car came out of the workshop after a car ramped into it. It was a job, badly done by the insurer's mechanic because there were noises from the back of the car which was originally not there before the accident.
Then my family resolved to get my nephew's (Gary) mechanic friend, David, to resolved the mechanical problem. Gary and his friends plus David, decided
to drive along the Kesas Highway to test drive the car. There were some distinct noises at the back. Along the way, David suggested to Gary to put him into the boot, so that he could determined where the noise came from.
So, they stopped at the side of the road and David jumped inside the boot. However, they did not realised that there were 4 malay bikers who saw the whole scene. As Gary was driving along, the 4 bikers rode in front of the car and caution them to a halt. They agressive demanded that they open the boot as they accused Gary and friends for attempted kidnapping. Gary opened the boot and David was astonished to see 4 malays faces staring at him and then asked whether he was alright. David said "apa ini? I ok" (what is it, I am okay).
David told them that he is the mechanic and they were trying to test run the car. After much explanation, the 4 malay guys left, leaving Gary and friends in a state of shock and bewilderment. After that they all had a good laugh!!
When Gary related the whole incident, all I said was "Good mechanic, good malaysians". Very rare species nowadays..............some mechanics would not go at such length to ensure a job well done, while some malaysians would prefer to mind their own business. I am so proud of the 4 bikers. If I was at the scene, I would appraise them for being good citizens of Malaysia!
