That was part of my reasoning for going across all of Malaysia.

So I've travelled over, I would say, 150,000 k's just travelling around and every town I would stop at hotels, churches, police stations and elderly homes.

I made a little pack and I would just hand out flyers and posters and like it sounds silly but you feel guilty sleeping or getting food.

I burnt out quite a bit but I would use that time when I'm back at home to quickly try and get as much rest as I can, as much food and go back because I felt as though like if mum needs my help then I can't be, you know, sitting at a restaurant having fun or having a drink because that's unfair.

I would say the first three years were still panic mode in that there was hope that we could potentially find mum.

I found, you know, with...

Having to do the searches, a lot of our friends chipped in as well.

So they would join me on the search as well, which was amazing.

So then I could hire out a couple of cars and then we could actually split and get more of the country done.

So putting up stickers, I made banners.

And there was this railing that went weirdly across traffic, but you couldn't walk up it.

And I've got no idea why it exists.

It just doesn't make sense, but it just seems a perfect place and I made up this massive banner.

So I just stopped at the hardware store, bought some cable ties, put it in my mouth and then just shimmied across in traffic and then managed to put it up like silly because if I fell off, I'd get struck by traffic.

A hundred percent, yeah.

But it also creates people to look at it as well.

And I had someone that had contacts with the royal family which reached out and just said, you know, we were driving and we'd just seen two feet dangling from this little railing and we thought what, they obviously thought, you know, maybe someone's hung themselves or, yeah, and then so we looked back and there was this crazy dude.

Yeah.

Yeah, shimming along, putting up a banner and then, yeah, and that helped get some word of mouth as well.

Heaps.
