I witnessed a car-jacking, few days ago. At a T-junction a kilometre from my home. And the victim was slashed.
On a busy road, he was left to bleed by his tormentors. A casual drive turned into a nightmare relived in perpetuity. He lost his car, wallet, phone, house keys and the life he knew. In an interlude he was left with an amplified prejudice of people.
It looked like a scene out of a movie. As the suspects sped off with the victim's car- so did the witnesses. The insane reality that no one came to his rescue hit me real hard. It pointed to what the ‘real Malaysia’ is like. Or, has become.
