“I was shocked to hear that he suddenly passed away,” he told The Malaysian Insight. 

Wong had gone to Mojigoh’s house in Kg Duvanson, Putatan, to park his vehicle before going trekking at the Tambaig Adventure Hill Park early this morning. 

Before starting on his trek, the two men sat together for a cup of coffee. 

Wong had accompanied a group of visitors from the Philippines on the trek. 

“I was not aware that he had a heart problem,” said Mojigoh. 

“He looked okay when he returned to my house to pick up his car. 

“He told me he was going to Kuala Lumpur (later).” 

Mojigoh said he learned his friend had died hours later from family members. – March 28, 2019.
