Paragliding | Fly for Gaza with Islamic Relief Malaysia and Persatuan Luncur Udara Malaysia.



Woow! Blog almost got dusty for almost a month without any great update. Surely, it should be updated with a good stuff once something is written.

How do i describe my feeling now? Been great and awesome all the way throughout February and March and it was double up the joy when I had a chance to join the paragliding event organized by PLUM (Persatuan Luncur Udara Malaysia) together with Islamic Relief Malaysia in conjunction to raise fund for Rebuild Gaza.

Actually, I always look forward for a extreme sport such bungee jumping but since the trip to New Zealand for bungee jumping is nowhere around the corner, so best thing is to do paragliding; and it thrilled me to the fullest when the husband who worked for Islamic Relief and one of the crew who proposed and executing the event anticipated me to join the paragliding; I couldn’t be more thrilled and terus lompat bintang! (over okey!)

The event was held on 23 March 2012, Saturday, and almost 40 volunteers turn up for this event to challenge themselves for this extreme sport. We had a briefing by Captain Ikhwan, the founder and owner of PLUM with his beloved and sgt peramah to the fullest wife; Kak Orked. The paragliding took place in Bukit Jugra and I flew with Bro Zain as the captain. How great it was to fly next to the eagle with wide spread blue ocean and palm oil plantation estate beneath me! Awesome! Look forward for a second attempt to fly soon with the husband pulak! -nho
