“I have known him since I was a director of the Malaysian Armed Forces Veterans Affairs Department for three years, and during those three years, I had arranged his travels to England to attend High Tea with Queen Elizabeth. “During my tenure as the JHEV director, I had always known that JHEV took good care of his welfare and through the state government, we had built a house for him in Sri Aman and even his ‘bilik’ in the longhouse was also repaired by the army.

“I believe that I should care for him because he is my father and he had made many sacrifices when we were small,” said Panggau.
