A metaphoric example is the movie ‘Black Hawk Down’…am sure you know the story I think the westerners are always better at creating a hype over things (in this case, jungle survival) but somewhere along the lines the forgot to mention who the learn it from.

I saw it on youtube (Mike Hawkes) but never really got around getting it. Have you tried it? let us know what you think of it after testing it. Thanks Loh! How much did you pay for that parang?

Cut them in2 short pieces and then dry them in room temperature.... u cannot get rid of sinus, u can only manage it - stop eating or drinking stuff that encourages sinus! Every morning AND b4 u sleep, drop a few drops of the minyak cap kapak into a pot of hot water, wet a towel, cover your head and slowly inhale from the pot of hot water with the drops of minyak cap kapak...inhale and then exhale with the wet towel lifted. Do it for several minutes everyday. That so called Malaysian Parang was designed by Wilkinson Sword for the Brit SAS back in early 80s and it really isnt a good piece of parang to be used in the jungles. The blade is too thick for a parang - just look at the shape of the small sticks cut up by the " survival expert " Myke Hawke - its never a clean cut! Everytime the SAS operators came 2 train with us, they always loved our Bidor parangs and they found out that the hard way during our 5 weeks' jungle warfare trainings in the jungles of Bruas, Bintang and Temenggor!!! Check out the stuff the " survival expert " Myke Hawke carries with him into the jungles - WOW.... Id sure would like to have the luxuries he has if I ever was in a survival scenario....LOL! Trust a westerner to be a jungle survival expert....yeah, right!!!! When are we EVER going to trust Malaysians as jungle survival specialists?

Good to see new things on your site, and interesting to know that there is a local ciggie for sinus. Do you know the name of the stick as I've a friend who had tried everything including wasabi to get rid of his sinus (short of a surgical op)but without success. By the way I've just bought the "malaysian-parang" or machete used by Myke Hawke in the Discovery Channel 'Science of Survival-The Jungle' program aired few years on Astro. Took me 3 years to hunt it down. Cheers Keong,

I dare not try it. I looked at my friend's face smoking it, enough to tell me it's horrifying. Ha…ha…that bad ah the smoke Kenny. I dare not try it.
