Appreciation Post!

Thank you to both my parents, siblings, volunteers, media, crews, hotel's security team, staffs, friends and fans and not to forget to mention Sponsors @tenaga_nasional @allianzmalaysia , US Potatoes, @kbsmalaysia @fskualalumpur @yakultmalaysia @isnmalaysia for all the support given to me on officially attempting this Guinness World Record on @guinnessworldrecords Day.

Special mention to @tenaga_nasional @allianzmalaysia for doubling up the sponsorship amount on a very last minute as we were short of fund when we found out that we need to pay quite a huge amount of money for this attempt. I was so glad to receive a call from Datuk Omar on Monday two days prior to the official attempt that TNB agreed to double up the amount of sponsorship for us. I felt glad for this.

Before that, we took a loan to pay all the cost required and thankfully everything went quite well in the end. We were so glad to seeing so many media came and cover this Official Attempt of Guinness World Record and the news got featured to all the local news and even online news portal as well.

There were many challenges prior to this attempt especially getting the permission from Police Department at Dang Wangi during this CMCO period, and to ensure everyone follow the SOP.

We would like to thank everyone for spending your valuable time especially to all volunteers, crews, all media teams and to VIPs (Alex, Datuk Omar and wife) on staying from the start until very end of the day, cheering and supporting me for the one hour attempt.

I am so glad to have you all on Wednesday night to witness this attempt.

I would like to also thank @ravin1618 my Vice President of Malaysia Towerrunning Association on spending most of him time, sharing his experience and guidance with me on making this event happened!

Thank you once again and the next post related to continue will be the virtual Guinness World Records certificate presentation at KBS.
