An Unfortunate Accident

I just witnessed a horrific car accident earlier today. I am still in distraught.

Potentially disturbing images ahead

*~*~*~* Public Service Announcement *~*~*~*
Please note that kennysia.com has received permission from the involved’s direct family to publish the photos of the car accident on this website.

kennysia.com wishes to advise anyone reading this entry that not everyone may wish to have these photos published as such. If you encounter a potentially fatal car accident in the future, please always ensure that the victims are safe first and foremost.

*~*~*~* Public Service Announcement *~*~*~*

It was along the Batu Kawa-Matang Road. The driver of a Honda had tried to overtake the vehicle in front of her. She didn’t succeed, and was met with a head-on collision with a cargo truck instead.

When I was driving past the scene, all I noticed was a bystander shouting for help. He couldn’t get a phone signal in the new area so I offered to help by calling the emergency number.

I had received First Aid training before, but when I was put into a situation like this, I honestly do not know how to react.
For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except run around asking for help.

More volunteers had arrived. A man was calm enough to open the car door to check on the conditions of the passengers.
I looked inside and took a glimpse of the driver. She was a young lady around my age, still in her seat belt, body slouching to the side, eyes half opened. Lifeless.

The spoiler of the lorry had gone right through the windscreen and smashed into the headrest of her seat. She couldn’t have survived.

Then I saw that there were children inside the car. Young kids, no bigger than my own nephew and nieces. Their bodies, covered in blood, sprawling over the car seats of the car.
My heart sank.

We noticed a young girl still breathing. Immediately, one of the volunteers carried her out of the car and rushed her to the hospital.
I don’t know what happened to her eventually. The newspaper report said that she survived but suffered serious head injuries.

If anyone reading this website knows the family of the unfortunate souls who perished in this incident, please drop me an e-mail.
I may not know you, but I apologise because I was there at the time of the incident and I do not know what else there is to do. If you know the condition of the little girl in hospital, please tell me. And if there is anything at all that I can do to help, financial or otherwise, please let me know.

I am sorry.

  1. I am really sorry to read this article. May God bless the souls of those who couldnt survive and bless the lil gal too. 🙁
    One example that its better slow than never..

  2. erm, just a question.. what were you doing snapping photos of the scene?! I know you tried to help and kudos to that but to be taking pictures at that moment is a bit tasteless I feel..

  3. poor girl…i would have dumbstruck myself if i were there…
    i guess we should all srcutinize our driving,whteher we are reckless or careful.other’s life are at stake too!
    drive safely…and buckle up…you can make a difference

  4. condolences to the family memebers of the accident victim.. sighh… mum’s pleassee drive safely when u have kids around la!!

  5. the photos could be used as police evidence. kenny is being sensitive enough not to take photos of the victims. he has done what he could do.
    god bless.

  6. why the fck would the airbags go off? its not gona do anythn.
    hope the girls gona be allrite. may the other RIP.
    ps-you should never overtake a truck. the drivers get really pissed cos they take ages to regain their speed.

  7. @hij: are you sure about that? i dont think thats true, because trucks have high torque ratings.
    @fruitopia: look at the car, its a 5th gen Civic. That model only has a driver airbag.
    Did anyone understand the newspaper article? It starts off saying a woman and her 3kids died. Later it informs us that a woman driver, her mother, the driver’s 2kids and her niece were in the car.

  8. I guess that being an almost pro-blogger like Kenny is like a pro journalist. No matter what, his instinct was to take the photos, coz that is what he do. It’s like during an accident & a photographer keeps snapping pictures, tho it’s irritating, it’s their job. Blogging I believe is essentially part of Kenny’s part time job (ofc, he’s not paid but then… he got advertorial now doesn’t he?)?
    In whichever case, let this be a lesson to us all lar! Dun be overconfident behind the wheels, especially when ur not alone.

  9. Wah Kenny, ur not so nice ler? Anonymous just put anonymous lar!! why put I’m a Chicken with No Name… /sigh… what a put down.
    /scowl

  10. Another lesson to all those drivers out there. Its nothing worth to get into an accident.
    If you are wondering if what you can do to help the casualties, learn First Aid and CPR. You might save a life someday.

  11. hey, Kenny! You did the right thing of calling the emergency number! Well done! Hope the driver and the kids are alright =)

  12. believe me i know exactly how it feels. I dont think the driver could have survived the crash. Condolences…
    p.s stop commenting about kennysia taking picture there. He is considered enough by not taking picture of the victims(there is no car plate number as well). He know what he is doing and he knows the consequences of this entry as well.
    And next time please take note that dont move the victim on ur own unless u know what u are doing. u might kill the victim if u move them recklessly. Trust me, i know coz i am a doctor

  13. well a message to all of you..please dont save a minute or two by endangering not only your life..but everyone elses too..my condolences..i m still surprised how you can snap so damn clear fotos also..

  14. it is extremely insensitive of kenny sia to act like a papparazo and take photographs. Its almost as rude as going to a funeral and take pictures of the casket. you should be able to draw a line between journalism and being sensitive. its already bad that you didnt offer any help but standing there and taking photographs clearly show you lack moral fibre.

  15. I don think its insensitive, he’s just sharing his experience and he has offered so much help at the end too.. Did he take it so that he cud sell the pictures or make front page in a newspaper? Its hardly paparazzi or journalism! He just wanted to share wad happened. He also clearly wanted to help and now he has even offered financial help too.. gosh.. I feel bad for the family though and i wish that they rest in peace..

  16. am so sad to see this.. condolences to the family members.
    and i totally agree with radical85.
    thanks kenny for sharing this news. you’ve offered what you can.
    let’s pray that the girl is ok *cross fingers*

  17. Shouldnt have taken the photos.
    He might be a blogger, first instinct was to take pictures when anything happens, and I can understand that.
    I can understand that, but that doesnt makes him right.
    He snaps picture, in abundance of them. I dont think those were anything meant for the so-called “police evidence”. C’mon, the police have their men on that task.
    And besides, those photographs were taken after the accident happened. If those photographs were showing the epics before the accident happened, or say captured the number plate of the car they were trying to overtake, that might helps.
    In another words, shouldnt we say Kenny took those pictures and put them up mostly, if not solely for the benefit for himself to generate positive viewership? To enhance his presence in the blogosphere? To create a buzz around his name? So that to translate those intangible fames he already has on web, to real life so that so make them more keenly felt? Say… on national television maybe?
    Viewership does go stagnant if you do not have something to stir it up once in a while, no?

  18. I’ve always been told in an accident, do not go and carry the victims if you do not the right way. This is because the victims might suffer from a broken neck or bones and by carrying them might further cause them injury. My question is, how do we stop ignorant but good samaritan to try to move them to the hospital without waiting for ambulance? Some might argue, waiting for ambulance would take too much time or are you going to stand around and watch them die? So, where is cut-off line? To help or not to help, that is the question.

  19. May God bless the person who survived that crash to have the strength to survive in life…
    Calling the emergency number was the only thing Kenny could have done so he shouldn´t blame himself.
    As for snapping photos… one or two for the purpose of “journalism blogging” (or whatever you guys coined it as) would have been sufficient to act as a reminder for the public on the importance of driving safely… So he might be taking a few more to get the “best shots” but posting so much photos… Yes, he´s being sensitive while taking these photos… but what was he thinking while snapping so much photos? the rationality still eludes me.

  20. This is truly sad. You couldn’t have done more Kenny. Bless the family of the victims. May they be strong.

  21. Please bear in mind that if not for KENNY sharing this piece of information with us, most of us wouldnt have known bout it. perhaps kenny is just trying to spread the word of caution or that drivers should be much more sensible and careful whilst driving.
    not everything is about money, especially when it comes to issues bout life and death. so stop being so insensitive to the poor dude la.

  22. My condolences. May those who is gone rest in peace.
    By the way Kenny, did any of the bystanders say anything or look funny at you when you were taking photographs on the scene? Do you take your camera every single place you go?

  23. serves them right!!!…they deserved it!!!… this is what you get for driving recklessly. stupid!!!

  24. Oh my gawsh
    wut a sad accident
    i would have cried if i were there.
    now i’m feeling all sad and sorry.
    by the way, correction?
    “For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except run around asking for help. for taking pictures.

  25. Oh my gawsh
    wut a sad accident
    i would have cried if i were there.
    now i’m feeling all sad and sorry.
    by the way, shouldn’t it be:
    “For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except for taking pictures.”
    instead of
    Oh my gawsh
    wut a sad accident
    i would have cried if i were there.
    now i’m feeling all sad and sorry.
    by the way, correction?
    “For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except run around asking for help”

  26. oh shit.
    sorry people!!!
    ignore my previous comments!!!!
    some HTML errors
    what i really meant was
    i don’t think it’s right to take pictures when accidents happened. really.

  27. well, a picture paints a thousand words and in this case, it portrays the severity of the situation for us to appreciate the consequences, should we all try to pull off stunts, no?…much condolences…

  28. I myself was involved in a self-accident many years ago. Praise God I am still alive. One thing u learn – DONT SPEED! Take ur time.

  29. you don’t do anything wrong….beside how can she survived in THIS kind of collision. even if you are a surgeon also no use.

  30. Kenny has done his best. There is nothing else he can do to help.
    Plus, this entry really remind us to becareful while driving. Wish the little girl is safe.
    My condolences..
    Stop criticising kenny!

  31. it’s just odd that you could be there not knowing what to do, but taking photos from so many angles certainly crossed your mind

  32. hey, i just read about the accident on the newspaper this morning, and now, i read it on your blog… it’s really sad to know these accidents happen… You are not to blame, kenny…don’t be too hard on yourself~

  33. “I had received First Aid training before, but when I was put into a situation like this, I honestly do not know how to react.”
    “For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except run around asking for help.”
    But i know how to go take out my camera and click here and there while seeing others actually DOING something to help the victims… Kenny you are so coward la instead of helping you act as though you really are a journalist! Not to mention you stop by roadside creating traffic jam! Ambulance also stuck in jam!

  34. “what makes a bit sad was you have the time to snap pics”
    You ask, why do I still have time to take photos?
    I’ll tell you. In between me calling the ambulance at 3:15pm and the ambulance and police actually arriving at 4:00pm, there is a 45 minute space and about THIRTY bystanders, onlookers and volunteers where NONE of us knew exactly what to do.
    None of us want to move the bodies because it is clear they are already dead, and whoever has survived (ie the little girl) had already been rushed to the hospital.
    So what else could we do?
    Direct traffic? We took turns. I was “traffic police” for ten minutes before another guy took over.
    And what else? Pray tell.
    You want me to perform post-mortem? Chant prayers? What?
    “But i know how to go take out my camera and click here and there while seeing others actually DOING something to help the victims… Kenny you are so coward la instead of helping you act as though you really are a journalist! Not to mention you stop by roadside creating traffic jam! Ambulance also stuck in jam!”
    Me creating traffic jam? Mate, if it weren’t for me the ambulance wouldn’t even have arrived. The place is a new area and none of those who arrived there before me could get a signal on the phone. I was the only lucky one there with a phone signal who could call emergency.
    Even when the ambulance and police arrived they also stood around not knowing what to do for 15 minutes before they ordered the fire engine to come in and cut through the wreckage.
    Fact is, I did the best I could at that point in time given the shock and trauma I underwent. I took the photos only AFTER I had calmed down. And only AFTER I have ascertained that there was nothing else that could be done. And I took with my phone camera. Not my dSLR or Sony T9. In situations like these, I believe I had done my best.
    “In another words, shouldnt we say Kenny took those pictures and put them up mostly, if not solely for the benefit for himself to generate positive viewership?

Say… on national television maybe?”
    There is a line between citizen journalism and distasteful blogging for personal gains, and I believe I did not cross that line. You can telephone the local Kuching police and check with them who at the scene provided the most help. Go ahead. I had given them my IC number and they know exactly who I am.
    On the other hand, I’d like to see what superhero powers you can perform if you were in my shoes.

  35. “why don’t you ask someone to take pictures for you while you pose? asshole…”
    Exactly, and why don’t you suck in your fat stomach and stick your flabby chest out as well like all your puke-inspiring photos?
    And what kind of explanation is that, daring others what other things they can perform? The point is what NOT to perform, ie taking pictures like an inconsiderate fat fuck such as yourself.

  36. The airbag, if the car had one in the first place, would likely not have deployed as the main impact of the truck hit the windscreen first and not the nose of the car.
    This is an example of why most trucks in Malaysia (and probably around the world) are extremely dangerous – to other vehicles. Their bumpers cannot make contact with the crush zones of passenger cars because they are too high up.
    There is an alternate design for truck bumpers which is closer to the ground and angled in such a way that the impact transfer to the other vehicle is done just right – to avoid accident outcomes like this one.

  37. What ever it is, the major point here is that lives were taken away just like that.
    We should always keep this tragedy in mind when we are about to speed, drunk drive, cut lanes, dozing off, on our hp, no seat belts etc.
    Let this be a lesson to all.
    Bless the souls of those who died and may God take care of the little one who still lives.

  38. Hi Kenny:
    You have done enough,to be honest,most of the peoples do not know how to react when such incident happens,at least you are trying to help.:)

  39. Kenny, i’m disappointed with you. You said you didn’t what to do to help them. And you could do was taking photos and posted in your blog? That’s bad. I regretted reading this post.

  40. OH NO! I can imagine how you would have felt… I had to cover my mouth from quivering and held tears from my eyes just going through the photos….
    You know, those people that kept saying about how you shouldn’t be taking the photos and instead should be helping, seriously, what can you do at a time like this? There’s really nothing you could do, and i hope by looking at the photos that Kenny has taken, it would remind everyone else to drive carefully and not end up like this… What more, with kids at the backsit… Seriously, it hit me harder than seeing the car under the truck when i see the photo of the lifeless kid’s leg from the backsit…
    I hope people will learn from these photos, and not make the same mistake as this young lady, and I hope their souls (i read this few times, u put ‘s’ there, meaning there’s more than 1, DAMNIT) rest in peace…

  41. God bless the lil girl!
    I know how serious head injury is cause my dad just came out from the Neuro ward himself.
    It’s so sad to witness the condition of ppl there…..

  42. Oh my…my heart sank too when i read this especially when the youngest kid is of the same age as mine!
    Kenny, i can imagine the trauma that you will have to go through after witnessing this accident. You did what you could and this is a real good lesson for all especially when driving with the little ones. A good wake up call for some reckless drivers out there.
    God bless the souls… 🙁

  44. From what I have read and seen here, those persons who are critising kenny (esp those who have done so after his explanation) can just fornicate off!
    And for kenny – no need to be defensive about this – as long as you respected the victims by not showing their faces etc that is fine with me.

  45. Well, kenny you have done what you suppose to do.. well done..
    for those comment on snapping photo around.. jus put yourself in kenny position at that time.. u will feel what he feel-helpless feeling..
    and my condolence..

  46. Can you MORONSS!! stop asking Kenny why is he snapping photos instead and not helping around!!
    As if you MORONS have inherited Superman powers that you can actually save the situation which Kenny can’t! and Is he using YOUR handphone to take the pictures, that YOU felt so sore about? His not taking photos of the deceased so what is the big issue all about??

  47. wah you ask people to call police ask who did the most? what are you trying to prove?
    you did the right thing to call the ambulance, but after that you should had just leave since you already mentioned you don’t know what to do, if don’t know and feel helpless LEAVE the place then, you and the 30+ people there are just there creating a unnecessary scene (take pictures, discussing, take number to buy 4D etc…
    Nobody here claims to be a superhero, my feeling is you done your part in calling ambulance, probably take a picture or two, but not hanging around there for a hour or more feeling “helpless”… you won’t need to direct traffic if the 30+ people including you were to park their vehicles and motocycles by the roadside…

  48. Really dont understand what you guys want. I understand that some might say is rude to take photo on the accident scene. But kenny had done his part in helping to call the emergency number. He had did more that what we are willing to do. Try to put the incident on yourself, what would you do? You could be a bastard who will slow down your god damn car, causing terrible traffic jam just to have a better look on the incident only.
    On yeah, go and write to the paper and screw those people who took photo on the accident scene la. I’m sure there are damn alot out there.

  49. To those who commented on Kenny:
    “Why take pictures?”
    Please lah, if you got a blog and you’ve got thousand of people reading it, obviously you would wanna let your readers know about something that happened which does not occur in everyone’s life. Reading on this post and looking at the pictures, it really made me realize the consequences of driving fast. Reality is that the person driving this car made a big mistake and it costed people lives. And you guys are making it sound like as if Kenny took pictures and made them got into a horrific accident.

  50. i had my witness my fair share of accidents involving people lives as i work as a ambulance driver… in an ideal world i have to agree Sensible thinking is correct… don’t stop and look if you don’t know what to do, but unfortunately people are like that. Kenny did right in calling ambulance, then he should had left the scene. and not to critize you but for i know for sure every accident we received at least 2 calls as the operator will fear it is just a prank call.

  51. Kenny, I am a medical student and I understand how bad helplessness feels in the face of emergency. However, it’s the heart that counts, you couldn’t have done much better.
    I am not sure, but I would just like to share this article written by a medical student in a similar situation, it may help:
    http://changyang1230.blogspot.com/2005/03/touching-article.html
    While what Kenny did (taking photos in the accident) might seem controversial, ask yourself: what could you have done better, were you in his shoes? Stand around, becoming part of the crowd who stand there discussing “how the accident could have happened” and so on? Compared to the crowd, Kenny actually did so much more by posting this article and reminding everyone about the importance of safe driving.
    Get over your knee-jerk reflexes. Kenny, although you couldn’t have helped out much on the spot, you still did what you do best: disseminating public messages through your blog. And I thank you for that.

  52. dont get upset kenny. life’s like that. there are always people who dont agree with what you do at any given time. no point trying to please everyone.
    btw, who did he really offend by taking pictures? the victims? what damage did he do by taking pictures after directing traffic and waiting for help to come?
    ask yourself whether you would actually stop down and help like him, or you will just drive past and spend no thoughts on it. shame on you

  53. F.O.C.U.S.on the real issue – the consequences of reckless driving! and not whether its JUSTIFIABLE on the part of kenny to snap pics or not. idiots.

  54. Hm.. i would feel out of respect for victims of the crash, the photos should not be publish. And perhaps this is a good topic of blog but still, instead of apologising that you are sorry Kenny, i felt that sometimes should be left unphotographed.

  55. aiyo kenny relax la you did your best adi ma…. don need to angry if you Kepo go busy body or Geh Gao go direct traffic…maybe you really expert in directing traffic since so many people log in to see your blog liaw… so you successfully pass your message to don’t drive recklessly liaw adi lo… Peace!

  56. I SERIOUSLY DONT SEE A POINT OF MAKING THE FACT OF PHOTO SHOOTING AS RIGHT OR WRONG.
    I’d have agreed with you if he’s taking photos of the bodies..but taking the accident scene does not mean he did not pay respect to the victims.
    I dont understand why there are people try to say it’s right or wrong. It’s not a matter of right or wrong for certain things, eg. you choose to eat noodles of rice for your dinner.
    And what else he could do better or help much, if he’s not taking any photos at that time?
    U’d never know so helpless when you are at the place of tragedy while you have nothing to offer but watch it!

  57. MY deepest condolence to the unfortunate victims & their family.
    & to ‘Sulee’ & ‘abcde’ & to those still slamming Kenny for taking pics, cant u guys read his xplaination? Pls-lah, get the facts rite b4 cincai say things and pls read the comments b4 u write 1 yrself. Watever it is, there is no need for Kenny to even explain. Common guys, this is a sad accident so QUIT asking the stupid question of “Y take pics?”!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  58. In another words, shouldnt we say Kenny took those pictures and put them up mostly, if not solely for the benefit for himself to generate positive viewership? To enhance his presence in the blogosphere? To create a buzz around his name? So that to translate those intangible fames he already has on web, to real life so that so make them more keenly felt? Say… on national television maybe?
    Viewership does go stagnant if you do not have something to stir it up once in a while, no?
    I like what he says. SO much truth in it.

  59. First time commenting, but for the sake of the family of the dead please take down the photos.
    I don’t quite care about your intentions but don’t you think their family has had suffered enough without you putting up photos of their wife, daughter, son on the internet?

  60. My condolence and deepest sympathy.
    Kenny, dont be upsad so much about the comments of why taking photos. Generally it’s true u shouldt have taken those photos. It gives ppl lots of negative impression about u, remember ho u r a celebriti blogger, and one thing try not to reply to ur readers comments, show ur profesionality as blogger not easily shaken. sori about tat ho?

  61. There’s nothing wrong with taking the photos, so shut up! Stop writing bollocks with your comments and move on. Kenny is posting all this so that we all can learn from it. So to those narrow minded moaners who spent 24/7 complaining about this and that, reconcile yourself or get some counselling before it gets to your head and becomes serious.
    This article is focusing on the horrifying accident and we all should feel sorry for the victim and slagging off Kenny Sia is not welcome.
    May God bless the lost souls and my immediate thought is with their family.

  62. Guess you were not so distraught as to have had the time to consider the implications of those photos you took AND to put them on your blog. If you’re genuinely sorry for the victims and their family then I think you should remove the pictures at least. I would find it highly offensive, not to mention heartbreaking to find my loved ones paraded on a blog for everyone to see.

  63. Hey Kenny, hope you’re alright by now… and will not have a nightmare because of this.
    I know sh*t happens… no words can comfort. Just a prayer.
    Be safe.

  64. yala feel sorry for the decreased la… and while you are at it feel sorry for the 1000000000 people who die in accident everyday around the world then!

  65. TO SOCIAL CONSCIENCE,
    Kenny did not take photos of the dead people!! and if the newspaper journalist can take photos of the wreckage, why not Kenny? or for all you know, if there are other bloggers who happened to be there, would probably also snap photos and share their thoughts about the accident in their respective blog!
    In a way, Kenny is just showing his readers what he saw in that accident and to me it’s a lesson for all to learn.

  66. That’s sad, I hope everything turns out ok. Especially for the sake of the kids.
    As for the pics, it’s fine, any journalist would do the same. You didn’t show anything or shock value or anything distasteful.

  67. This is the result of all those reckless driving. Hate such drivers.
    Remembered when I went to Muar and drove alone the small road there, ppl there drove like hell drivers even the big trucks.
    kept me awake throughout the whole journey.
    Wonder why these ppl cant treassure both their own and others lives. Haiz

  68. I believe Kenny took pictures to show some awareness in all of us that speed kills.
    No point accusing Kenny of taking pictures when he should have done something (which god bless he did anyway), 4 lives have been lost what else can Kenny do, be god and give them life. Think before you comment guys. This message is for those who have been looking for the opportunity to shoot Kenny down.

  69. Some people may say that’s it’s the driver’s mistake and that slow is better. But things arent always what they seem.
    Accidents like this are sometimes results of a driver infront driving RIDICULOUSLY slow and still being oblivious about it. They pay no attention to their hind-view mirror. And even if they did…they could have scoot a little bit for some room to be overtaken instead of the car behind having to go all over the other lane to overtake.
    I know this might have nothing to do with this accident. But it pisses me off how these oblivious drivers are able to cause such horrible accidents and can still have no clue that they have caused them.
    -my rm0.02-

  70. kenny not pro la… who so free call police to check you hero anot? why? you want PM to give you a award for being a good citizen? if you feel you did the right thing then no need to defend yourself in the way you posted that message… so defensive and acted as you were the best in the lot.

  71. Hey Kenny, credit where it’s due, you helped out BUT you said “I took the photos only AFTER I had calmed down. And only AFTER I have ascertained that there was nothing else that could be done”
    Dude, there is one picture of that man carrying the injured girl to the hospital.. Surely that wasn’t after nothing else could be done rather than DURING something was being done..

  72. For those of you who are unhappy about the photographs, why don’t you write in to the local media or trashy tabloids, and tell them to stop publishing photos of accidents and other similar ‘tragedies’, because it is “immoral”?
    Cliched, but “a picture speaks a thousand words”. And given how intellectually-challenged some of Kenny’s readers are, it is no wonder he chose to use photographs, because even if he is able to come up with words to aptly describe the situation and the message behind his entry, many would not understand.
    I bet all of you discuss such pictures when you see them in the papers. Did you, for a moment, express disgust at the reporters or photo-journalists? If you did, why aren’t you giving the reporters the same nonsense you are giving Kenny now?
    Why is Kenny getting flak just because he is “not a journalist” – therefore he has no “right” to take photographs of the accident?
    Kenny is *somewhat* a public figure and has public influence – we all know that. Instead of flakking him with senseless oh-so-holy-schmoly talk about how “disrespectful” he is, why don’t you see the main point BEHIND the entry, which is very likely to be a simple “PLEASE DRIVE CAREFULLY”.
    I bet half of you detractors who posted the holy-schmoly comments about “oh this is so wrong you should not take photos it’s so disrespectful” and stuff, are the very ones who kick small animals or watch pirated DVDs or spew vulgarities or listen to ripped MP3s. Yes, these might be VERY small issues (not the kicking of small animals), but nonetheless it all boils down the same thing – moral values.

  73. Plz..Pray..not to critic bout the post and what kenny have done. he did what he done best..
    go read chinese newspaper (if you know how to read chinese) which have more photos with blood and flesh than actually can hardly see from kenny’s post. do you guys trying to say that the newspaper reporter trying to act unethiccally by snapping those photos for the public??? Sigh…stop arguement. it’s breathless to argue anymore….
    Pray for the souls, the 8month kid i saw very clearly in the pic frm newspaper really make my heart sank early this morning, so weak to see the nurses n doctors trying to check out whether there’s still any sign of heart bit using the machine on her but sadly to know that she’s died.
    God Bless the souls and take care of the only survivor, she’s still so young and have so much to learn =peace=

  74. Actually, another lesson to be learnt here which most of you probably don’t know is that: YOU SHOULD PUT SEAT BELT ON YOUR CHILDREN OR CHILD SAFETY SEAT AT THE BACK OF THE CAR FOR YOUR YOUNG KIDS. The kids could have survived the accident with minor injury if they have seat belt strapped on them. (of course, I am assuming that they were all at the back of the car during that time.) Can someone verify this?

  75. For those who gave negative comment about Kenny Sia taking the photos, GO AND GET A SEX CHANGE.
    END OF STORY

  76. I love taking photos. When things like this happens, I’d be doing the same thing as what Kenny did. But one thing will be different. I’ll take the photos AFTER everyone is cleared up and a confirmation on nothing else can be done. And I’ll only take the photos of the accident scene on where and how it happened. I guess Kenny was so distraught at that moment. All he can do was to take photos. Anyway, my condolences to the effected families.

  77. According to the report in the International Times (Kuching), the car lost control, not trying to overtake another car…… Kenny is right to stay at the scene and give his account of the accident to the police. Apparently, there is a conflicting report on the cause of the accident.

  78. Hi kenny, how do u actually stood and u run ah? in your sentence ‘For a long time I stood there in shock and distress, not knowing what to do except run around asking for help.’

  79. Shame on you!I don’t like the looks of this blog.
    First of all, you said that you felt distraught. On the other hand, you were calmly taking photos from afar, left, right, centre and back of the accident.
    What were you thinking of at that moment?
    “A-HA,i have another story to blog about?”
    Let me ask you..If the people involved in that car accident were your family members, will you still walk around taking clear photos of them lying there half dead?
    Show some respect for other people’s tragedy, please!
    Good for you that you are earning money from your blog, but please not on other peoples death tragedy.
    This blog emits fake compassion. I have no respect for it,(same as you not having respect on other people’s tragedy) other than the fact that it publicise news that people like to read and gossip on.

  80. Just for the record, I did not condemn the act of taking the photographs. I was just asking two simple questions relating to the photographs. There wasn’t anything negative or against Kenny taking the photographs at all.
    Kenny: For photographs taken using a camera phone, they sure are of high quality. What camera phone were you using?

  81. eventhough i work with the accident claims company and i have seen plenty of accidents in my work.. i still panic when i’m at the scene of accident. Even minor ones.
    Dun blame Kenny for taking the photographs. He just want to share what he saw.

  82. First, my condolences to all the families involved; the victims in the car, the lorry driver and his kin, and, from my reading of the accident description, the car the Honda driver was trying to overtake. In truth, we can argue that the deceased deserve our greatest sympathy. But we must also consider the impact on the lorry driver’s life, as well as others involved peripherally in the accident. Including all the witnesses.
    Second, on the subject of photography. While I hesitate to bring up the notion of the theory of photography, and how both photographers and viewers are affected by the events photographed, I would recommend that those who can might read Susan Sontag’s ‘On Photography’ and then comment further.
    Some of you, if you are fair to Kenny and honest with yourself, will recognize a bit of your own experience in his lensmanship.
    You whip out your camera, at a family gathering, and your literal view of the world changes – now the only things that matter are those viewed ‘through’ the view-finder – everything else is peripheral, and the ‘shot’ counts for everything.
    Kenny, who might remember the bald ang moh from kayaking with Unker, did almost exactly what I would expect under the circumstances. And, I think I would do much the same. I have been at an accident, very similar to this, and know the sense of helplessness and powerlessness in the face of tragedy and death. I would argue, in Kenny’s defense, that the ability to take the photos actually allows Kenny mental room to deal with the physical, emotional, and social devastation caused by a moment’s hurry…
    My condolences, again, to all those affected. I pray that everyone who wasn’t there will honestly assess their beliefs about what they ‘would’ do, ‘could’ do, ‘might’ do, ‘should’ do.
    May God have mercy on them all.

  83. My first thought when I saw the photos was what the fark was Kenny doing taking photos left, right and center.
    Instinct or not.Good story or not and everyone can argue ’till the cows come home.
    It’s just plain wrong.
    Drive safe all.

  84. Those who keep on with their criticizings u just dont get a point what is blogging all about? Sharing thoughts events places food anything interesting with all the readers. Simple! taking photos has nothing wrong since Kenny did his best calling emergency number, plus it is wise enough for him to share this with all of us , looking into the pictures i realised how serious it could be to drive recklessly. Its a lesson, a precious one. Thanks Kenny!

  86. Lanjiao! say nothing can be done only take picture but can take picture of good citizen who actually doing something carrying the victim to hospital, Kenny you sure can talk cock!

  87. heidikho….same msg no need to post twice one… unless you forgot to put ur blog link to direct some traffic to ur blog….pathetic!!!

  88. Erm n i hv no idea y my comments appear in another nick name?. U ppl who keep on with the insults, u know urself nothing better than anything!

  89. eh greedy bloggers if u know noting of how it turns out like tat pls its not of ur concern, u dun hv to bother! I dun leave comment for u!

  90. idiot. what compassion do you have? standing around doing nothing. nothing it seems, if there was nothing, why was a man carrying a half dying girl out of the car, was she too heavy for you? or are you too pussywhooped to look at some blood?
    BLOODY DISGRACE FOR ONE HOW CLAIMS HE KNOWS FIRST AID
    give some respect to the family, remove this photos and posting. maybe we should do the same if your family is involved in the same kind of accident.
    oh look, an accident!
    *standing and looking dumbfounded*
    maybe i should call for help…. oh no mobile reception, damn… ok la… can’t do anything…
    *runs around like a headless chicken for a while*
    … ahh… time to take some pictures of the dead and half dying children and woman…
    *will get me good hits for my blog… WOW*
    IDIOT…

  91. It does make us think, doesn’t it?
    Think about, what the lady had gone through over her life, studying, accumulating wealth, building a family, and it was all taken away from her, and 2 of her children, because of one mistake. Think about, her loved ones, the husband, the relatives, and her friends. How would they feel?
    It makes me think – since life is so fragile, we should really live life happy. I know, that’s the cliche of all cliches, but it’s true, isn’t it? Stressing over not being able to finish certain tasks in time, worrying about money… what if you die tonight? Would all those things still matter? “Live everyday like your last” – how true now, huh?
    May they rest in peace.

  92. to some childish people,
    you sure you can do what you talked in here?
    can you be so calm to do those things if it really happens in front of you?
    or you just watched too many hongkong dramas, and think you’re the hero in the dramas?

  93. 1. Taking those pics weren’t wrong.
    2. To those who say we can ‘learn’ from this post and the pic… WHAT TO LEARN?? We all know speed and stupidity kills.
    3. Just curious though… you said you took the pics after you have calmed down. The 7th pic showed someone in a motorcycle helmet carrying the little girl away. I wondered, wouldn’t it be better if you had offered your car to transport the girl instead?

  94. angel, nobody wants to be a hero, nobody is asking to be a hero, but this posting is crap.
    even if he just wrote the article, it would be… but with pictures, and claim innocence by being dumbfounded… it’s bullshit

  95. kenny sia, what you did was wrong and there is no excuse for it.
    once a blogger crosses the line, he loses safe harbour and if you dont know what that means go ask a civil lawyer.
    sorry kenny but posting this was low. dont say posting pictures was for stimulating open debate later cos if the media gets wind of this, we all might have to register to blog. and that ain’t funny at all

  96. pls stop whinging about kenny taking those photos. who are we to judge? so long as we take part in his blog by viewing his pix, we have no right to judge the blogger and his social conscience.

  97. To those who criticized me for putting up this entry thinking that I’m some sorta cold-hearted animal who goes around snapping photos of accident scene. Let me set the record straight.
    What You Thought Happened:
    Kenny passed by the accident scene. “Wah! Got accident. Better come down take picture!” *snap* *snap* *snap* Left the scene because happy got things to blog about.

    What Actually Happened:
    3:15pm. A bystander stopped my car asking for help. I called 991. Yes, we were frantic and in shock, but we tried to do what we can. We managed to stop more cars passing by and ask help. Soon, about 5 people came to our assistance.
    3:20pm. We checked on the victims. There was a lot of blood but no movement. I was still in shock and distraught and I did not dare to approach the cars too close because I was scared, but the braver ones did. One Malay guy checked on each one inside the car and ascertained one child was still breathing and she was rushed to the hospital with the assistance of a Chinese guy.
    3:40pm. A crowd of about 20 bystanders started to form. A traffic jam was also starting to occur so we took turns directing traffic. After my turn, a guy took over from me and I returned to investigate the wreckage. I was still distraught but by instinct I took some photos with my Samsung X820 phone. I didn’t take the photos for fun. I took it because it is not everyday that I witnessed a horrific accident like this. In fact, it was my first and I wanted to document it.
    3:45pm A Malay guy (shown in photo 20070518-3.jpg) picked up one of the young child from the front seat. He chanted Muslim prayers after realising that the girl he was holding on was no longer breathing and placed her to rest on the back seat.
    3:50pm There was really not much any of us could have done except guarding the wreckage to ensure no looting of the victims goes on (yes, this kinda sick things do happen) So I basically talked to the guys around me about what a sad thing this incident is.
    4:00pm The ambulance and police arrived. I gave my account of the story.
    4:15pm I left and returned to work.

    You guys sure have a lot to say about me posting up this entry. But how many of you truly cared about the young girl still battling for her life in the hospital.
    The LEAST you could do is call Sarawak General Hospital (+6082 257555), find out about her condition, and if need be, pledge a donation to her family.
    If you have already done so, you have my praise. If you haven’t, shame on you.

  98. MasculinEndings, that’s all he wants, for us to visit his blog… to get his ratings and hits up…

  99. “I didn’t take the photos for fun. I took it because it is not everyday that I witnessed a horrific accident like this. In fact, it was my first and I wanted to document it.”
    so this is a serious bit of HISTORY in YOUR LIFE that needs to be documented la…
    in all his GLORY Kenny Sia witness a FATAL ACCIDENT and took some pictures….
    really makes me throw up

  100. I think kenny didnt do anything wrong,He cant do anything at that time,like what he said just now,he only learn BASIC first aid…with this serious accident..what do u expect him to do?standing there like a fool?no way man!he got a story to share with us,and that’s his job.if he didnt show us this blog…just imagine how many people will repeat the same mistake?

  101. Aiyo, give the guy a breaklah, whats the point of having more people scolding him, wont change what happened and at least he stopped to help, i bet more then half the readers here would have just driven past

  102. can’t take the heat
    this is the price you have to pay
    Every Action has an Equal and Opposite Reaction.

  103. TO ALL OF YOU READING THIS
    what if I was the one TAKING PICTURES of and accident with YOUR DEAD OR DYING FAMILY members
    HOW WOULD YOU FEEL?

  104. You are the kind of idiot blogger that alot of people would hate and alot of people would like. For me, you’re too cute and wholesome and no such person exists in this world. You come off too fake.
    What’s wrong about this is that you’re posting pictures of dead people on the road, in an accident and claiming you’re sorry.
    Good job. My hero. There’s nothing sorry about shocking things up once in a while to keep those viewership high is that?
    Please stop this fakeness. Be an asshole if you want to but I’m sure you’re more happy taking those pictures thinking about your latest post than you were feeling sorry for the dead victims.

  105. Lol like what you are doing, if you dont know what his true intentions on posting the pictures were, then best you dont judge otherwise just like what you said, someone will repay the favour and bite u in the ass in the future. Have a nice day.

  106. WHAT was our MAIN concern again?…oh right?!!! its the ACCIDENT and its cause?…but look what ALL RIGHTEOUS malaysians are on about? oh yeaaah that kenny should remove his posts and pictures because they generate too much publicity and rumours … whatever happened to the people who wanna share their thoughts out of goodwill?…oh right! they CANT cos the local newspaper will do it anyways — why bother?
    sighs. typical malaysians. how depressing.
    remember, “…it takes ONE to know ONE…” 🙂

  107. kenny.sia.the.idiot, I think that is enough. Obviously you are not interested in listening and more interested in yelling abuses at me.
    If You Cannot Help, Don’t Shout.
    Don’t Talk The Talk, Walk The Walk.

  108. can’t take the heat kenny?
    removing my postings ain’t gonna help you out on this one…

  109. hey kenny, why do u thnk you have to specify the the model of you phone?
    … so yeah so i took the photos with “my SAMSUNG X820 PHONE”
    u looking for a sponsor or smthn? or just showing off?
    while there’s nothing wrong in taking photos, cos i couldn’t have done anythn else but watch as well, it’s probably best not to publish the photos. if it was someone i knew in the accident im sure as hell i wouldn’t want to see those pics.
    ps. zeroX, while trucks do have higher torgues and horsepower, this doesn’t take into account their weight, and cargo (if any). to go from zero to 60 takes like a minute or smthn. very hard to accelerate, not to mention slow down (momentum shit).

  110. Reminds me of that quote people always say, arguing on the internet is like the special olympics, even if you win you’re still retarded. Lol.

  111. well, if you didn’t delete my comments, it would show that i wasn’t yelling abuses at you. but it’s just my own opinion of your posting.

  112. hij, I published the name of the phone I used because commenter khensthoth asked me what type of phone camera I used.
    With regards to publishing the photo on my blog, I don’t think I did anything wrong because photos of car accidents appear in our local newspapers everyday and the photos that went to print were a lot more gruesome. I would think local Malaysians have a lot more tolerance of that seeing as how they are perfectly fine that our newspapers published these photos.

  113. newspapers are to REPORT incidents…
    Reporters don’t talk about how shocked or distraught they were…

  114. be a man and accept the criticism.
    that’s all from me today, i’ve got better things to do.

  115. oh?…you’ll be surprised how newspapers filter vital information and allow us to know what are permitted to know…
    stop preaching for heaven’s sake. what exactly do you want KENNY SIA to do?

  116. Whats up with this whole Kenny taking pictures thing?? He just took pictures of accident scence, and don’t the newspapers reporters always do so? So do you go scolding all the reporters for taking the pictures?? Kenny was being a good resident to help out at the scene, yet you guys are here talking like this!
    HE HELPED, by calling the emegency line, and directing the traffic. WOULD ANYONE OF U HAVE DONE SO IF U WERE AT THE SCENE?? I am sure more than half of u would have just stood there. And why will u just stand there? You will surely answer “cause I did not know what to do.” Now this “not knowing what to do” thing happened on Kenny, BUT at least he called and helped out! So whats this whole problem? At this kind of accidents, nothing much can be done.
    And Kenny is being nice here, to show you guys, all his readers the importances of safe driving. He cares, and he doesn’t want this thing to happen to any of his readers.
    Those people who gave the critism are people who can’t think right!
    Kenny, I am sure you did your best. Cheer up.
    My deepest condolences to the family involded in the accident

  117. Kenny is being heartless?? You people have been critizing non stop on this post is merely because this blog owner is KENNYSIA. If it had been posted by a nobody, none of you would even care to leave such comments. Now tell me who’s the fucker here?
    Kenny, ignore those bastards and dont take it so hard. They are just a bunch of pretentious pathetic pigs with attitude problems who think they are so righteous. They are in fact nobody but HYPOCRITES.

  118. By scolding Kenny Sia is not gonna bring back those deceased back to life. Can you guys just stop it? Get on with your life. Pathetic moron.

  119. Those who are obsessed with the fact that this entry has pictures should have a life.
    I reckon from what I read is that the people above who criticize Kenny should stop buying all newspapers and magazines (gossip or disaster). Because you are saying that people who takes the pictures and keeping you all informed of what is happening are being distasteful. Go be a hermit. So Kenny being at the scene and blogs it online is like just acting as what every other newspaper etc are doing.
    Because you are not at the scene so you do not have the RIGHT to criticize. Accidents takes forever to clear and Kenny has done what he can, i.e. asking for help. I have a friend in high school who died in a car accident because NO car stopped and asked for help. So stop criticizing and go celebrate the fact that you are still alive and breathing and enjoying God’s grace.

  120. hey kenny, don’t feel too bad, at least you weren’t there to congest traffic majority of malaysians do, and you didn’t stop for the purpose of jotting down the car plate number. these people i mentioned only jam up the roads, they slow down their cars just to look but they don’t actually get down to help. i mean, what’s the point of looking at the accident when they aren’t gonna get down and rescue the victims or offer any kind of help? why not just drive quickly so that the ambulance can arrive quickly without getting stuck in traffic jam? malaysia is a country with first class facility [not] but third world mentality.

  121. It’s very hard to please everyone. So just do whatever you feel is right Kenny. No matter what you are still the best blogger!
    cheer up!

  122. I don’t understand those who gave negative comments on this blog entry. I know Kenny can be a little attention craving but since it’s his style and we chose to read his blog, why bother? Bloggers are some sort of freelance writers and it’s up to him what he wants to write about. I think if you guys read this story from bloggers like Jeff Ooi you wouldn’t condemn him right? Cause he’s a more serious stuff writer. You guys just tag Kenny as a funny writer and expect all his posts to be amusing. =/

  123. please, for For Heaven’s Sake, drop this nonsense about safe driving….
    this has nothing to do with safe driving…
    if you don’t know how to drive safe, or don’t already do so… you deserve to be under that truck…
    kenny: yes a blog is to DOCUMENT happenings in the blogger’s life but shouldn’t you be more humane and have some compassion for the deceased and their family? it would have be OK if you had wrote about it and left the pictures out…
    my 2 cents.

  124. To the chicken shit who posted comment with the nickname “Kennysia.is.an.idiot”. You seemed to be very disturbed. Go and get a sex change, you idiot!
    You dont even have the guts to publish your own name which shows how chicken shit you are. Dare you criticize people like Kenny Sia. I think he has more moral than you, fishbrain. Get a life!
    I am more distraughted to read comments like this from idiots who gave negative comments about the photo now!

  125. Kenny..kenny…let’s do everyone and the victims a favour by removing this blog or removing all the photos.
    The key point here is RESPECT!!
    Touch wood: Here is an example:
    You wouldn’t post a photo of your dead family member on the blog and say “oh look here, i feel so distraught coz one my my family member is lying in the coffin now. Oh well, anyway, this is the coffin and you can see a hint of his hair color from this angle”
    No no..you wouldn’t do it, coz you respect and love your family.
    Right?
    Moral of the story?
    Don’t do onto others what you wouldn’t want others to do onto you.
    Understand? i make myself clear?

  126. to all kenny sia balls lickers, you so like to defend him change ur surnames to sia ok? people have the right to criticize kenny and if kenny want to defend his own site let him do himself like what he is doing now, no need you balls lickers come say this and that or quarrel with people like kenny.sia.the.idiot

  127. Mr. Ng, exectly what i was trying to say… but in a much nicer manner… kudos…
    AJP a.k.a kenny.sia.the.idiot

  128. Guard the car from people looting??!!?? so if got people loot, you whip out your handcuff and arrest them a? please la you want to hang out there to experience the situation just admit don’t give all these bullshit… so like to guard go be security guard at bank then!

  129. my deepest condolence to the family who involve in the accident. Hopefully the child will be alright soon.

  130. seriously.. those bashing kenny should get a life. the main point of this post is to advice ppl to DRIVE SAFELY. kenny is a person who always takes pictures so obviously its his natural instinct to take pictures. and about him specifying his camera model is because different models might not take such good quality pictures.
    if you are unhappy with kenny, why are you still here? jeez. you don’t know how it feels to be in his shoes so don’t go shooting your head off.
    condolences to the victims.

  131. I’m A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAKKKKK!: Why don’t you go f*ck yourself? More like you are a chicken with no balls.

  132. Fake loser trying to appear compassionate.
    If you are that symphathetic and emphatetic, you would call the ambulance and buzz off knowing that you could not do anything else.
    Go back to the office, make a silent prayer and get on with life.
    Let the real reporters to the rest.

  133. well, to “I’m A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAKKKKK!” youre defending the other bashers too, why not change to their surnames, huh?
    just get over it ppl.. youre making a big fuss over kenny taking pictures.. so hard to please everyone..

  134. wow today i login and see one of the most commented blog in such a short time! Not to mention kenny seems very pissed as he keep answering all these scoldings… but i think kenny don’t bother to answer them, you seems so desperate to defend yourself, and of course you won’t use your car to drive the girl to hospital, what if blood stained your interior? might as well take pictures at all angles that would shame even the most professional insurance agent or journalist right? Please don’t say you are much better compare to the rest of the crowd, you ain’t different from them. yeah donate all the money you have and say the rest of 25 million malaysian who didn’t as cold blooded then.

  135. So funny “I’m A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAKKKKK!” want to fuck himself wahahaha….
    looks like kenny got an alterego in kennysiatheidiot ala spidey and venom……
    kenny! gogogo take more pictures of accidents robbery kidnapping fire and fights! i like to see!

  136. Anyone who wishes to teach kenny about respect can just email him privately. There is no need to do it so publicly. The accident has been distressing enough for him. Please.

  137. Most dulan all the people want to type FUCK but no balls and type f@ck or f*ck instead! FUCK YOU

  138. If I’m in Kenny’s shoes, I’ll help the victim. But as Kenny was said, there’s no much thing you can do as a mere mortal.
    Plus, the reason why the motorcyclist bought the girl to the hospital is because the motorcycle is much FASTER and can go QUICKER to the HOSPITAL to SAVE the GIRL’S LIFE!.

  139. Kenny ignore all these people…you are god and you know that! The best of the best!
    Posted by: Melissa at 18 May 2007 2:17 PM
    Ok… the above comment really made me go WHATTHEFARK??!

  140. What on earth were you thinking while snapping so much photographs? Your rationality eludes me still.
    The focus wasnt anymore on the family. What were you thinking?
    Commenter ‘wjlim’, his comment werent exactly favourably to you, but those werent exactly unconstructive neither. There are some truth in it.
    Subconciously, you are generating hits to your site.

  141. After reading the newspaper and looking at the picture you posted, especially with the child leg sticking out of the backseat, it really hurt me emotionly. My condolence to the father who lost his family.

  142. The reason they use a motorcycle to fetch the girl is NOBODY offer their car to fetch la DUH…. blood on the interior can’t wash off you know…the smell stays and all car user are just selfish, including me and you kenny haha! admit it la,

  143. TIME AT STAKE! I mean if Kenny is Superman, I’m sure he’ll fly te car with the passenger to General Hospital.
    And i’m sure if he’s like Tru (Tru Calling), he would help the deceased and the little girl when he wake up the next morning! By that, he would not go to work and he’s salary would be cut off.
    Remember, no one’s perfect. Tell me what you gonna do in that situation? TELL ME! And of course you can.
    Kenny, you did what you can do and I respect you for that.

  144. Oh should we pity kenny sia because it’s distressful for him for receiving negative comment on his prestigious blog?
    Who posted the blog to invite comments in the first place? Who asked for it?
    If he is so distressed? Why not jus disable the comment column??
    He should feel distressful at the time of the accident, distressful enough for him to leave the scene knowing that he do not have the balls to carry the little girl out of the car.
    By the way, even if we type F*ck or Fark or FUCk or FOOK …they all mean the same feeling. Doesnt matter how we write it.
    And if his fans pray to him like god, just call him when you or your families are faced with any tragedies or accident. He will dash right to your place and take photos and blog it bfore the reporter do.

  145. some of you malaysians are REALLY malaysians. you guys just love to complain abt every single thing.
    very typical of you jealous fucks who also can’t take that someone has a successful blog. so what? no happy ah? make your own blog la diu! don’t like what he posts, don’t read la diu!
    there’s nothing wrong with taking photos when it’s death related (funeral, accident, etc). stupid malaysians!
    hope someone nukes this fucking country.

  146. If it is me, i will stop my car, scare and panic, use my samsung phone which is the best phone in the world cause it can call in rural areas where other phones can’t to call ambulance, and use it’s super clear zoom geng geng sibeh gaolat camera to take pictures left, right, bottom, front, too bad it kenot fly up to give a aerial shot if not paling best! and then i will try the best to contact the girl and give her donation, not to mention ask everyone to do the same cause i am a good guy hehe.
    Moral of story: SAMSUNG paling best! nokia motorola hamilanjiao brand all go far far!

  147. WHY NO PIC OF U SUCKING IN YOUR TUMMY AND STICKING OUT YOUR CHEST???? CLAIM TO BE SO MUSCULAR, GYM RAT ETC. CANNOT EVEN CARRY A YOUNG GIRL?

  148. Thanks guys.
    For your info, i am one of kenny sia’s devoted readers, until today.
    I have never leave any positive or negative comments in his blog bfore, until today.
    He had jus gone way to far with his “photographic” skills.
    As i read his blog, the word “fake” “fake” “fake” keeps popping in my mind and i could not contain the frustration in me any longer.
    I need to give him a piece of my mind coz KENNY SIA YOU HAVE GONE WAY TO FAR THIS TIME!!!
    Learn your lesson well. No need to defend yourself.
    Everyone makes mistakes at one point or another.
    Learn from it, apologise, take out the photos and move on with life.

  149. Kenny,
    Ignore those moron who know how to criticize only. If i were in your shoe, i might be doing the samething also. The picture you posted is a lesson to all rackless driver and those tail-gaters.
    Even the rescue team need a JCB excavator to pull the lorry and the vehicle apart, those moron reader expect you to use your bare hand?
    You have all my support.

  150. Sorry kenny. i dont mean to be such a shitass. I am a pathetic loser. you know i looked at the mirror all the time and i knock my head against it a 100 times a day. I have a very small brain infact. Didnt mean to critize you.

  151. Kenny, lai
    My friend hor, his friend de friend de friend…
    whatever la…
    the friend’s friend’s friend de family member passed away le.. from accident
    come KL, help them take photographs and post in blog can?
    bring your gaolat camera come. dont bring dunno hamilanjiao brand de camera. must clear one!!
    hor, den hor.. put 10 pictures enuf la.. no nid much.

  152. Dear Kenny,
    Keep to what you believe is right. Ignore the negative comments. One man’s meat is another’s poison. Who is to say what is tasteless or not?
    I am a Kuchingnite currently in the Mid East on assignment. I see broken bodies and sprawled inards everyday. Smashed up skulls and burnt torsos. On TV. Tasteless?
    By the way, I bet those complaining about the photos are the same ppl who slow down everytime there is a crash to have a look. Known also as neck benders. Bigots lar this ppl.
    By the way, this is no accident. It is a crash. Completely avoidable. So, to other drivers out there…be careful when you drive. 90% of crashes are avoidable with patience and good driving skills.

  153. I am kee’s friend actually. He satisfy me physically everyday so i had to support him. sorry kenny. dont mean all that i said. LOL

  154. Malaysia government faster react!! got a terrorist want to nuke malaysia liao, faster check his/her ip address and arrest her before it is too late!!!

  155. I have something to say to those lunatics who leaves all those harsh messages to Kenny…
    I think you guys are a bunch of problematic, deprived of love people who probably have records at a Mental Institution. This is his blog, he can put up anything he wants to, if you can’t stand him then stop visiting his blog and stop looking at the photos!
    Kenny, be a professional and don’t bother arguing/replying to these idiots..let them bark like a mad dog if they want to. Let them have their cheap thrills on your own blog!

  156. thank you for the help any where. Just hope to tell me that are the two young kids still breathing the moment you take the pics? thanks…

  157. You know.. the thing that I can’t stand is not Kenny’s post but no-brainer comments!
    Some of them really make me go WHATTHEFARK?! (or FUCK, as kee would want me to spell)
    Kenny is God??!!
    The picture you posted is a lesson to all rackless driver and those tail-gaters.??? It’s a Head ON COLLISION FOR GOD’s SAKE!
    oh nvm.. I’ll never win

  158. if you are going to chastise this blogger for taking photos of an accident, how about going up to the traffic department or your government and givin em a tight slap across the face for erecting billboards with pictures of accidents to warn you against speeding?
    Sure there are some moral issues but then again, all he did was take pictures of the wreck and not pictures of a lifeless body.
    Sure he could have taken the girl into his car instead of the motorcyclist..but hey, were you there? what if the motorcyclist had grabbed her quicker than he could? heck, hes even offering financial backing for the kid..how many of you argumentative cynical bastards would do that?

  159. Ken, you are right. i am such a loser. You see, i am small in size (as in my most important part). I looked at myself i feel like puking all the time. Sorry for being such a pain. I am pathetic and I will eat cow dung for a day just to reconcile myself.

  160. I really hope that all of you can stop giving comment. Maybe a prayer would be a better option. All of us really needed that. Please…

  161. My deepest condolences to the family of the victims who are now probably going through one of the worst times of their lives both in denial and in grieve. May God bless the lil girl that’s now fighting for life is the hospital and may she learn to live with this incident and recover from it in time.
    And now a note to Kenny Sia, dude, I’ve always respected your guts, your creativity and your talent in keeping our lives up to date and filled with laughters. A blog is a pretty personal thing and you have the rights to write anything you want it in (well, almost) but I feel maybe u should stop for a moment, a second and imagine if that car belonged to your loved ones and you were reading about it while viewing those pictures in sm fella’s blog. Like i said, it aint wrong, but smhow, it doesn’t feel that right either eh?
    Keep up the good work but learn from these entry.

  162. “what if the motorcyclist had grabbed her quicker than he could?”
    Hello? Maybe it’s because he was not holding a state of the art technology camera in his hands? That is why he has both hands to save the girl?
    While someone was busy taking photo of him carrying the girl? Get it?
    If you don’t, you can scroll and see the evidence kenny sia took himself?

  163. geez, if you guys are SO frigging disturbed by kenny’s post, leave and don’t ever come back then, this blog is all about him not you.
    Furthermore it is not like he is forcing you at gunpoint to stay. Just GTFO. =/

  164. After reading those comments, i notice that there are a lot of crazy ppl around…. I think it is because of the stressful life we are having now… I don’t see any single point of the argument at all…It makes me scared cos there are too many crazy ppl around and I don’t even know if he/she is sitting next to me.

  165. Transferring a severely injured little girl by motorcycle?
    One commenter said something that hit me pretty hard; WHY didn’t Kenny volunteer his car to take the girl to the hospital?
    Oh, and superb pictures, btw. Top hole stuff. My condolences to the deceased, but sorry, none for Kenny and the flak he’s getting.

  166. Hey Chill, Whatisthis. There are not many crazy people, just a few kids using different nicknames complaining about this and that. 🙂

  167. kenny,
    i teach you laaa
    you go buy The Star newspaper. Flip over to the obituary page. One by one go visit them, take photographs and then post them on blog.
    What? Nothing wrong ma.. You got your sibeh gaolat camera woo..

  168. yah hor, dun think they will use the same comments if they have to put the IC there… sigh… see what ppl can do being anonymous… tsk tsk

  169. yah hor, dun think they will use the same comments if they have to put the IC there… sigh… see what ppl can do being anonymous… tsk tsk

  170. And if his fans pray to him like god, just call him when you or your families are faced with any tragedies or accident. He will dash right to your place and take photos and blog it bfore the reporter do.
    LOLLLLLL

  171. Has it occured to you guys that Kenny Sia could be sitting behind the desk now, reading each of the comments and giggling in victory.
    At last he created enough chaos to bring more readers to his blog.
    He achieved his objective at last.
    Hail to kenny sia.

  173. Dear Kenny & everyone,
    I didn’t write the earlier comment of
    “yala feel sorry for the decreased la… and while you are at it feel sorry for the 1000000000 people who die in accident everyday around the world then!”
    so you know, I original comment was, I hope you (kenny) are alright.. not being traumatize with this incident. Be safe!
    If this comment come out differently from what I type now… I don’t know.. maybe I shouldn’t write anything in the first place.

  174. you’ve done your best as a citizen, ignore what others says.
    dont think those people that give you negative comments will have the same reaction as you, which is actually come down and help and help to control the scene. they might also not think of taking picture, as picture can in a way help the police to futher investigate the accident.
    so, those people that give negative comment probably, will be those slowing down( and create traffic jam) just to see what’s happening and say, “wah.. there got accident oh… ”
    you have done a good deed, good job.. and god will bless you…

  175. would you ALL please STOP!!
    The pictures alone does not disrespect the victims. The commotions in this comment section does!
    If any of you have the at least one ounce of sympathy, shut up and leave this at it is now.

  176. WOhoo so funny, mario, i got a fren ho, she punya breast big big dua liap ni wan….so she less chances of accident lor since you say accident ppl mostly rackless wad XD summore you fully support kenny, go vote for him in general election ok! make banner to sorak gao gao!

  177. Dear Kenny,
    managing trauma victims are disturbing..since you are the 1st at the scene…
    l would not advise carry the victims by yourself in this situation due to a possiblity that the victims could had a spinal injuries and possible cervical/ neck frature…carry them around in the way in the picture could already killed the gal or cause more injuries..
    If you are unfortunate again to be in this situation again..always protect the victims neck by stablising the neck on the road…sandwich your legs in between the victims’ head so as no to let them turn their head side to side…
    talk to the victims (this can check the airway)..and don’t give them anything to eat or drink!!! if they are in shock..put ther legs up and wait for help…
    you cannot do much in this situation…we are not mobile hospital..there is only so much you can do..
    Takr care of yourself..it’s not easy to forget these incidents…taking and chatting with your friends will be a great way to relieve the stressors…

  178. Journalist and reporters taking photos of the accident = Their just doing their job.
    Newspaper post the photos of the accident = Good, so that everyone can know what actually happened.
    Kenny Sia took the photos and blog about it = Shit ass stuff to do. Being not sensitive, being a pussy.
    Come on, what the fuck with you guys out there. You guys who kept criticize people around and never learn is it? I bet if you were in the scene you are only one of those who cause the traffic jam and instead of coming down and help, you just slow you car and look at it. Seriously, do you think that the income he generates through this blog sphere is enough for him cover up his fancy lifestyle? He is not a poor guy that needs to attract some bunch of pussies like all of you who criticize, just for the sake of generating some advertisement income ok?
    If you guys think that Kenny is really being harsh and what he did is really wrong, why not you guys go and complain to the newspaper? Start a campaign to protest against what he did instead of being a chicken and come out with stupid nicks and drop idiotic comment. You guys just talk like there’s no tomorrow, ask yourself what have you done for the victim’s family.
    To tell the truth, without reading from Kenny’s blog, I don’t even know that there’s an accident like this happened. At least he did something, but you? Really shame on you guys. I’m shame on myself also since I didnt read the newspaper everyday. But Kenny, you have our support. Just ignore those cock talkers around

  179. Don remove the pictures!!! i want to show my friends that the samsung phone camera sibeh clear, clearer then wad nokia and its kanineh karl gneiss or wad shit camera punya photos… Mr samsung will be so proud sob sob…

  180. Kenny sia, listen here.
    There are a lot of commotions created here in this blog.
    It’s not emiting positive energy to the victims.
    Remove it so that everyone will rest in peace.
    This is the least you can do for the victims and your readers

  181. ladies and gentlemen, let me first say that from a neutral point of view each and everyone of you be it pro-Kenny or anti-Kenny are in the wrong.
    Let us not forget that we are all brought up differently and have different ethics and cultures instilled in us. Some might say that taking photographs of an accident is unethical and vice versa.
    Please learn to respect your opponent’s views as your opponent might have been brought up in a different society and might feel that what you think is right is actually wrong. Tolerance is the key my friends. We will not go far if we get so easily worked up by a few words from the opposite.
    Nobody is right in this case and dear Kenny, I think it is best you do something to satisfy both parties. Perhaps keeping the post there but removing the photos might bring peace to all?
    Let us not be strayed away from the actual issue here. The accident was a tragedy which shouldn’t had happened in the first place. Please do not be overconfident behind the wheel. Drive safe and take care everyone.

  182. Good job by posting up photos of tragedies /accidents?
    DISAGREE
    You don’t worship him every day and nite hoping for lotteries / better career / getting healthier every year / long life just like praying at other temples, don’t you?
    WHY GOD? lolz…
    Those who posted negative comments are morons?
    HMM.. EVERYONE IS FREE TO EXPRESS THEIR THOUGHTS. OTHERWISE, WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF THIS COMMENT BOX?
    I BELIEVED THAT THESE PPL WHO POSTED UP NEGATIVE COMMENTS ARE TO ADVICE HIM, BUT, POSTED IN DIFFERENT WAYS OF WRITING / PRESENTING THEIR THOUGHTS.
    Perhaps, things would be better if the photos weren’t posted in the post.

  183. I think it was kind of Kenny to try to assist the victims even if it was just to lend others his cell phone. I dont think his pictures will be used as police evidence. The police will probably has their own photo evidence. But the adjusters and claimant’s will probably want the photos for use at the trial of the action. Kenny might be called as a witness since he was at the scene of the accident and he, Kenny Sia is the only identifiable witness to the accident for blogging about it..:-)

  185. I’ve been a reader for a long time Kenny and I think even you know that this post is totally not your style. At least I hope it isn’t.
    Perhaps you were a little eager to share with us your experience but the photos are not necessary. I know I would hate having my loved ones tragic photos plastered on a website.
    I’ve always thought you to be kind, sensitive and considerate, be that then to this family. Search your heart Kenny, and do the right thing.

  186. This is by far the best comment!!
    http://www.kennysia.com/archives/2007/05/trauma.php#c373038
    If it is me, i will stop my car, scare and panic, use my samsung phone which is the best phone in the world cause it can call in rural areas where other phones can’t to call ambulance, and use it’s super clear zoom geng geng sibeh gaolat camera to take pictures left, right, bottom, front, too bad it kenot fly up to give a aerial shot if not paling best! and then i will try the best to contact the girl and give her donation, not to mention ask everyone to do the same cause i am a good guy hehe.
    Moral of story: SAMSUNG paling best! nokia motorola hamilanjiao brand all go far far!

  187. nobody can actually actually react at such a situation
    sum times da so-called first-aid learning would become useless in such a situation,instead saving da victims u may actually cause death.

  188. Gosh, what a freak incident it is. My condolences to the family.
    Those that criticized, think twice before you post. Kenny took the guts to take those photographs and shared the moment with all of us here.
    Kenny is just sharing his experience with us, this is his blog, not a public forum, what is there for you guys to judge good or bad?
    You called him cowards, i bet you’ll peed in your pants when you see dead bodies at the scene.
    Please guys, this is a very good lesson to learn, and Kenny did GREAT, i repeat, he did GREAT by posting his entry.
    Those that not happy with this, you can always leave, there’s so many other blogs and internet content to read, the world doesn’t end at Kennysia.com.
    Peace.

  189. Some people attack Kenny for the sake of attacking. They will just keep on looking for imperfections in how he has reacted to that Kenny looks stupid reacting that way. To these people, I have only pity for them.
    There are those who says that it is not right for Kenny to post the pictures of the accident here. Or some who just wander.. perhaps what one of you guys could do.. or Kenny could do is to ask the family involved. (I would like to do so but I am not staying in Malaysia so it’s rather inconvenient)
    I have been reading Kenny’s blog for quite some time now and I sincerely believe that he is not doing this just to create more hype for his blog. I think it has got to do with his consistent care and concern for those who are less fortunate. For those who are in doubt, please do ask yourselves who Kenny is to you.. not just from this incident but from everything that you know about him for the past years. Could he have faked all these? Unlikely to me…
    In the event that the family affected choose to have the pictures taken down, I am sure Kenny would do so. Not so much because anyone feels so but the family involved.
    For the rest of us, I appeal to have the unfortunate family in your heart and really ask what else you could do for them.. It could be a prayer, a donation or anything else within your means.
    I hope my message could do something for them. And my prayers too. Treasure your loved ones. 🙂

  190. lets wonder how a man like Kenny speaking about trying to help & ends up taking loads of photos & post it in his blog… Kuching is small, ppl could recognize the car & rumors will spread. Kenny should have some respect for the dead, instead he could pray or take away the car’s plate number instead of TAKING PHOTOS…
    Later on, he would offer donations & a lending hand, later on he would be famous for offering help & gets publicized. don’t u think all he wants is just a breaking news on his blog??
    Please Kenny… try to do better things than scoring points on the expenses of others…

  191. Its pretty inconsiderate to be taking photos and posting it up like this esp when it involved people that has passed on (so you were helping, snapping, helping, snapping? pray tell how did you accomplished that while feeling what you felt?). I thought you would be one of the better ones but I supposed all are the same, trying to increase the readership. Tsk tsk!

  192. You can only do that much by asking Kenny to change. You can do much more doing other things for the family. Things that could really benefit the family.

  193. to “kenny just want PUBLICITY” above,
    pls dont judge kenny like this k!! u dun deserve judging!! ppl like u cause him to blog within restrictions more and more u know!! and when we cannot read a neutral blog, it’s you who were to blame!!
    all my prayers be to the family. and kenny. take care.

  194. “and not to critize you but for i know for sure every accident we received at least 2 calls as the operator will fear it is just a prank call.”
    Posted by: I’m A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAKKKKK! at 18 May 2007 10:48 AM
    – Just curious: Do I get it right that if the operator receives only one single call for a particular incident it would be treated as a prank call? So in the future, in order to get them alerted & send an ambulance for rescue, we have to call at least twice, or we’ll never get help?

  195. HAHA I agree that is the best comment! which bring us to this
    if kenny is to look for more viewers and publicity for his blogs then he succeed!!! Congrats!
    However if he really meant to express his feelings of how helpless and pity he is towards the victims, i’m afraid based on all these comments he fail miserably.
    Therefore this blog achieve 50% of what it intended.
    ps Samsung really so sibeh clear anot? chill guys!

  196. OMG!!!!!!!!!
    din know so many ppl cmmting here, i meant to agree with frank,not those against kenny.

  197. Consequence of a Single-lane-dual-way Pan Borneo “highway”. How many times have we seen this kinda head-on accident happened in Sarawak? Blame the road, otherwise, drive super carefully.

  198. hey kenny,
    i guess i’ll have to agree that the pictures in newspaper aren’t exactly as bad as urs, except maybe in chinese newpapers where somehow they like publishin pictures of the victims body/face (as opposed to english papers).
    but then i’d rather see the photos in the ‘official’ public media. if i knew, or was related to the victims, it’s just a bad vibe reading stuff like this on sum1 else’s blog- sorta like tokin behind ppl’s backs. wouldn’t be gud to be in their shoes i’ll have to say.
    but hey im just being critical.
    ps.
    doesn’t matter if u have a car or a bike.
    not sure if it was a good idea to pick up or move the girl. her bones would’ve been messed up.

  199. will you all please read kenny’s explaination?
    u are just bashing him over the reason he has jz explained! O.o

  200. To: I’m a Chicken with no Name,
    Can you please answer my question above? I’m really curious about this – and I believe it’s a piece of very important information.Thanks!!

  201. ohh. u anti-kennysia finally got yr chance of bombarding kenny.. how long have u been waiting for this ya.. haha.. its funny how his doings is none of yr business and u all keep blasting him.. he is just one guy.. admit it u’re juz jealous of his blog popularity if not u wont bother to scold.. oh so u hate him so much for this, so juz leave kennysia.com.. don ever read his blog again ok? he doesnt need readers like u all afterall.

  202. Kenny, how about you admit you made a mistake, take the damn photos down, and move on?
    It was wrong for you to put those photos up, morally speaking, and whilst morality might be a subjective issue, it is clear that most of your readers seem to feel that this post falls into the immoral category.
    The main reason something like this is frowned upon is this:Let us say, touchwood, that this was to happen to someone in your family. How would you feel if 2 weeks or 2 months or even 2 years after the incident, you stumble upon these photographs on the internet? What about the victim’s teenage brother who has been protected from seeing the gruesome photos and has been denied access to the details of the accident? What happens when he sees these photos one day when he is looking for some jokes to cheer himself up on the previously funny kennysia.com?
    You should really be more considerate Kenny. If you really want to make money from your new advertising partners, why not set up a Malaysian branch for ogrish.com or one of those other sicko websites? Is this really the way?
    I saw an accident the other day right in the middle of KL. The police were putting the dead body into a body bag, and there were about 20-30 people standing around taking photos with their handphones. I told myself that only the lowest of the lowliest lifeforms could possibly want to record a scene like that in permanent form. It’s as if seeing that happen wouldn’t scar you enough, you had to take photos just in case you finally forget about it.
    Kenny, please do the right thing. You can still redeem yourself. It takes a great man to admit his mistakes, and you will gain, not lose respect from others if you do.
    Also, in relation to this phrase in one of your above comments : “Mate, if it weren’t for me the ambulance wouldn’t even have arrived”, may I suggest that you apologise for this as well, or at the very least delete it?
    To make yourself look like a traffic-directing martyr on the one hand, and then on the other hand claiming to be the hero who saved the girl’s life is rather hypocritical dont you think? But wait a minute, didn’t you say that the 1 survivor was rushed to the hospital by an onlooker? So what exactly did the Kenny Sia-commissioned ambulance do? Hero? I don’t think so.

  203. Some Newspaper cutting to share:
    一家五口4慘死
    (古晉17日訊)一家五口今午驅駛本田轎車外出返家路經石角馬當路途中,突告失控駛入逆道迎面猛撞羅厘,導致轎車前半段嚴重撞至毀不成形卡在羅厘車底,釀4人當場慘死車內悲劇。
    該4名慘死車內的女死者皆已被證實,為現年22歲的劉曉慧(譯音)女司機、現年47歲前座乘客張秀祺(譯音),及分別2歲及8個月左右的女童,而目前仍搶救中的女童則為年約5歲。
    該名女司機及前乘客2人為母女關係,而后座的2名女童則為女司機的女兒,至于該名仍在搶救中的女童,則是前乘客死者的另1名女兒之女。
    該意外是在今日下午3時左右,于石角馬當路某住宅區附近路段處發生。
    有關車禍發生當時,該名經營本市某小學食堂生意的女司機,正驅駛著該輛青色的本田轎車,載著其母親、2名女兒及1名侄女,從石角路準備返回馬當瑪利哈花園住家。
    毀不成形
    豈料,卻在路經車禍現場路段處途中,行駛中的轎車突告失控駛入逆道,不偏不倚與1輛迎面而來的羅厘發生劇烈猛撞,導致轎車前半段毀不成形猛撞卡入羅厘車頭底。
    車禍后,女司機頭破血流、雙腳骨折當場重傷身亡、同樣因頭部受劇烈猛撞的前乘客亦逃不過死劫身亡,至于后坐的3名女童中,其中2名重傷斃命。
    至于該名5歲的女童,被發現時仍有生命跡象,至今仍未度過危險期。

  204. and btw, this is KENNY’s blog! u have no rights to force him 2 take down the photos or to take down the blog entry! he can just delete ur bashing comment if he feels like it..but he didn’t coz he respect each and everyone that have commented..*sigh* shame on those that kept writing harsh comment and thought u’re the owner of this site. O.o it’s just pure evil! x.x
    ANYWAY….
    my condolence to the family members T.T rest in peace

  205. Hi Kenny,
    I’ve always been reading your blog and this is the first time that I am actually commenting. I would not say that it is bad that you go around taking photos of an accident scene. I think it is noble of you to actually try to help and instead like most people, would just slow down and take a look and then drive off.
    What I think is that you should only post the first four photos and then describe your whole experience from those. This allow people to understand what the accident scene is like.
    I am not very good with word but what I think is that, yes, by putting photos in your blog allow us to know what you were seeing at that time but sometimes, people might not want to know or might not be able to stomach those scenes. People like those who are directly affected by the accident (relatives or friends) might find that those photos are in bad taste. Especially if they see photo 5 and 6 where they can see someone they might be close to being in those situation.
    It is up to you on what you want to post on your blog and like what I said earlier, I would not say that it is bad of you to go around posting those photos but just place yourself in other people shoes at times. They might not feel what you feel.
    To the family affected by this accident, I send my condolences.

  206. You people are just wasting your time especially Chicken …whatever hell ur nick name is!!
    Kenny, this is a good post for all drivers to learn and see what kind of damage (be it physically,mentally) it does to one who is reckless.
    Ignore all those sick bastards remarks Kenny. Hope you get over the trauma soon! Life has got to go on…
    P/s: Just stay firm and believe in yourself. Don’t fret and get upset over these harsh remarks. Just take them as mentally retarded patients whose brain are attached to their backside. What you did was right. U Take Care.

  207. This is Kenny Sia’s blog space and as such, he has every right to blog on whatever he sees fit. Whether it is distasteful or otherwise, it is a matter of opinion. Just the same as all those who have judged him here have the right to place their comments here on his space. This is the internet man…No one forced anyone to read it. If you dont like it just click the “back” button!!!

  208. Read in the Star today, All 4 victim died on the spot.
    My condolences to the victims family.
    Kenny, you can’t do much then even if you are the best doctor in the world.
    Everyone else, drive safe and god bless.

  209. *phew* i couldn’t believe that i actually read all the comments here…
    u guys more interested to fight than show condolenses here :/
    shame on u

  210. aiya…u ppl say so much. next time u dont have anything nice to say, dont say anything at all. u complain so much abt kenny putting up the photos but u still look.u complain he’s insensitive but u still read. what did YOU do? nothing constructive?leave it be la.
    the main subject it not about kenny’s insensitivity or otherwise. it’s about reckless driving and lack of road safety campaigns. get a life! dont throw it away

  211. seems this post has brought many long-time lurkers to voice their opinions, and most of them point in the same direction. i’m in that same boat.
    honestly, i whole heartedly agree with jon stu. it was and definitely still is plain inappropriate to whip your camera out at the scene of an accident as severe as this one.
    granted, you did what you could to help out, and that much is admirable. at what point of time, however, did you decide you wanted to start taking photos? just because you used your phone camera doesn’t make the fact that you took the photos any less disturbing. you could’ve used the most discreet spy cam or a mother-big dslr and it wouldn’t have made a difference because it isn’t so much the photos, but rather your intention of taking them in the first place that is troubling.
    you do have the right to document your life and what goes on in it. however, you decided to share these tasteless photos knowing that tens, or maybe hundreds of thousands of people would eventually stumble onto this page. comparing kennysia.com to a tabloid, honestly is equivalent to comparing the four seasons hotel to a sleazy motel and if you’d be willing to stoop to that level by posting these pictures, then it is your blog.
    but out of courtesy to the victims’ family, and to your readers who strongly oppose against the posting of these pictures, imho i feel you should take the pictures off. the first four pictures were taken from a journalistic angle. the rest bordered on offensive, and i almost retched when i saw 20070518-6.jpg.
    sorry to say but this post was taken a bit too far, kenny. out of basic courtesy and the fact that you represent the same moral values as a lot of your readers do, i implore you to remove the pictures. at least some of them.
    hope this comment doesn’t get lost in the sea of kennysia bludgeoning and exaltation.

  212. Although the intention was good, it would still have been advisable not to physically manage the girl even though she was still breathing. Her ribs might have been broken or skull fractured, and carrying her away like that without medical help might kill her instead.

  213. oh so nowadays comments can only be positive ones….like praising kenny noble, polish his shoes that he doing the right thing and lick his balls that he have every right to post stuff on his blog.
    negative one go away, don read! don see! kenny boy boy and all his supporters want to be ostrich bury their cibai head in sand let them be! don go comment ok!
    I want to read and kan kenny if i think he not appropriate is my business la, say ppl no life you go support ppl very got life la…full of life la.

  214. GWN : “Just the same as all those who have judged him here have the right to place their comments here on his space. This is the internet man…No one forced anyone to read it.”
    Speaking of rights, he has the RIGHT to blog on what he did, we have the RIGHT to comment here, and he has the RIGHT to delete our comments. But enough about rights. Let us talk about being considerate. Let us talk about not being heartless. Let us talk about not using a tragedy to boost one’s popularity.
    yushi_gurl : “u guys more interested to fight than show condolenses here :/”
    And showing condolences HERE of all places does what? When X suffers loss, we show X condolences. We don’t go to X’s neighbour, or some random drug addict on the street to express condolences about X’s loss. If you really wanted to show your condolences, you would say a silent prayer for the deceased and their families, and not type it out in some random blog, especially one where the graphic photos of the accident, including details as to how the lorry’s “spoiler” (shouldn’t it be bumper, Kenny?) reached the driver’s headrest. Now, correct me if I am wrong, but doesn’t the head rest against the headrest? What would Kenny’s statement suggest? Hmmm…
    annoyed : “u complain so much abt kenny putting up the photos but u still look.u complain he’s insensitive but u still read. what did YOU do? nothing constructive”
    Well Mr. annoyed, not everyone can be at the right place at the right time like our superhero ambulance caller Kenny Sia. I personally did not do anything. But what I DID NOT DO is to take photos of the incident like some uneducated unrefined person. I looked at the photos, yes. But I did not take the photos, AND I don’t want to look at them again.

  215. Kenny, this is my first time writing a comment on your blog. Something just catch my attention. Why are you asking your reader to answer if you should help in any way possible especially financially ? We know that you are from a well-off family and please if you feel like giving a donation to the little girl or the family do so.. quietly. If you feel like visiting her in the hospital by all means do so. As I see that there is not so much of a point here to show it in your blog, somemore asking for other’s approval. What if we say you should donate RM 1 million to the kid can u do it ? I would say for those people who wish to give a donation, do so in a manner answerable to your heart, not passing the responsibility to others and worst still making a hugh puiblicity out of it.
    One more thing, if you are really feeling guilty of the whole thing, u would be considerate enough not to put all this things up in the net at the first place. There is a thin fine line between trying to fake that you are sorry(to get the publicity) and you being truely sorry. And this blog has been pushing that limit abit too much I think. As for the photos I dont think it is wrong that you took them, but I think it is just wrong that u post them here in the web. Yes it is something that does not happen everyday in your life, u can take as many pic as u like for your self-keeping but putting it up here, somemore all 9’s of them is jsut showing to us that u wanted the publicity. Nothing more. Period.

  216. FYI guys in case you haven’t noticed…the i’m not chicken nick is when you forgot or nvr put a name in the Name section, automatically generated one 🙂 i agree wif john stu and Samsung the best!

  217. OMG, I am sorry to hear that. My condolence to the family.
    Don’t speed, no matter what. I nearly crashed with a van when I was trying to overtake a lorry when I was in Perth. The lorry did not slow down and I was driving an old car. Luckily that was a straight road, the incoming van saw me and tried his best to drive close to his left hand side. I was just inches from death.
    After that incident, I never want to overtake a vehicle.
    You have done your best, Kenny.

  218. aiya kenny want to organise a dragon and lion combo dance in the small girl ward ma…. TUT CHIANG!!!! wan to lau liet lau liet increase publicity le… remember to take ur holiau gaolat samsung during that time and take 10 pictures and blog about it ok! i promise i be the first to login and comment!

  219. I bet half of you guys who complained about Kenny taking the photo didn’t even bother to read Kenny’s explanation.
    He himself is a professional blogger, taking photos to further let us readers visualize the scene wasn’t wrong.
    He could have choose not to take the photos some of you might say. But, I felt that he was not overboard. He did not take the photos of the victims. As he said, rather than being an on-looker, he gave whatever help he could. Rather than driving by, he stopped and gave help. Yes, it does not earn him the right to take the photos but what more can he do?
    Imagine you are a professional blogger for years, what is the first thing coming up to your mind? I believe that is what Kenny trying to do, taking photos and showing it to us all, forgetting about the faults he might make.
    His intentions was right, his habit was natural and he did what he usually do.
    Too many of you are looking at too many different sides of this story. Back to basic, it’s all about Kenny’s thoughts on the accident. Why think further?

  220. I agree kenny can put all these on his blog, and the pictures some might not feel good but i’m ok wif it, but all the content where he feel bad and sad and helpless not to mention himself lambasting all his critics are so LAME.
    You are such a FAKER but i am ok wif it cause there are fakers everywhere. Why not camwhore a picture of you crying in the background? that will sure convince few more people what a saint you are!

  221. Really? Sorry, but this is the 1st time I read sbd’s blog, so didn’t know that the nick of “i’m a chicken wif no name” can be whoever… So it means I will never get an answer for the question I’ve asked regarding the emergency calling then… Thanks for informing though.
    Anyway, honestly I’m very surprised to know such a popular blog, besides those celebrities, of cos – there’re always new comments every time I refreshed the page – AMAZING!
    (Those anti-kenny, please don’t shoot me for this – I’m just expressing what I thought…)

  222. “Do unto others what you want others to do unto you”.
    Kenny, if you honestly followed that principle when you took those pics and posted them, then I have nothing to say. Indeed, I respect you for doing at least as much as you thought you were capable of. I believe you did your best, under the circumstances.
    AS for all the other commenters, the above quote applies to you too.
    Enough said.

  223. dont be sorry, its not your fault that it happened.
    smtimes when fate’s in charge, nothing human does can change it. so yea.cheer up =)

  224. Those photoes went too far? you guys seriously don’t know what sorts of pictures a reporter take. WTF is wrong with taking photos of a car filled with dead people? Can you tell me? disrespect to the victims? Did kenny show full bodies of the victims? Haven’t you guys heard of the term citizen reporter before?
    If people were in kenny’s shoes i bet most of them will be snaping pictures too. Its not like he sells the photos to the press to earn himself some crazy money? It’s just that its a gruelsome moment that deserves to be captured and made into a self reminder how horrible the accident was. In kenny’s case, he wants to share something he saw, something that might be the most gruelsome incident he saw and he wanted to share it. Isn’t it not wad normal people do? No?
    Dear hypocrites, please don’t pretend you’re a saint or something, please don’t showoff your so called how-i-would-save-the-day-if-i-were-u thing, it makes u sound so low.

  225. oh my.. this is really sad. my condolonces to the family of the victims.
    i’ve been reading.. about what? hundreds of comments and most of them are just ridiculous! the purpose of this post is a CLEAR way to remind us that we should drive safely and be careful on the road. many accidents happen and somehow, these pictures really made a point.
    kenny, don’t beat yourself up.

  226. CAN YOU GUYS LIKE USE YOUR BRAIN AH?
    ok lah.. i can understand if ya’ll are not in this line or work.
    1ST OF ALL…
    if kenny juz blogged all words would it have made such a big impact?
    Without looking at how bad the crash was..
    could you have imagined how bad it was?
    IT DOES NOT MATTER WHETHER HE SHOULD HAVE TAKEN THE PIC OR NOT, THERE IS NO SUCH THING SUCH AS BEING UNETHICAL BY TAKING PICTURES AT THOSE MOMENTS, ITS NOT LIKE ITS HUMILIATING OR SOMETHING…
    GRRR…
    I hate it when ppl comment all they want and know nothing

  227. Just curious, i work in telecommunications and probably can answer your call, i think what the ambulance driver means is that whenever an accident happens there will be at least 2 calls to report the accident, hence confirming it as real (or the prankster is really free).
    This is due to whenever an accident happens in a space of say 10-30 minutes there will be good citizens who will call the emergency line to report the incident. Kenny might be the first but highly likely he won’t be the only person to call for ambulance. Unless his Samsung phone is really the best in having an reception. Cheers

  228. CAN YOU GUYS LIKE USE YOUR BRAIN AH?
    ok lah.. i can understand if ya’ll are not in this line or work.

  229. If it is well written with the best intend to educate, Praise
    If funny, laugh
    If photos too offending for some, critcize
    If find the blog misleading and insensitive, Fuck you la Kenny
    I got rights to fuck him, same as you people got rights to fuck each others, fuck and forget, don’t bear any grudges

  230. Hey kenny’s server company called him say overload lor… burst lor…kenny more famous then andy lau or mawi la people blog aso not that much comment in one day! diu parishilton aso can sau pei liao….kenny… NI ZHENG NEI HANG! famous celebrity liao, you made it! Fireworks BANG BANG PIANG!

  231. Dear Nzboy,
    I think you can safely assume that most of the people here would not put down “taking photos of car accidents and dead peoples’ legs” as their occupations when filling up forms.
    What may I ask is the point of Kenny’s big impact? You say that it is not humiliating, and you are right. It is not possible to feel humiliated once you are dead. In fact, I don’t think it is possible to feel anything when you are dead. It is however highly disrespectful. Maybe if YOU had used YOUR BRAIN (assuming you have one), you would have thought of this before typing a post in CAPS. Now everyone’s attention will be drawn to your stupidity.
    If Kenny had said that 4 people died when a car got into a head-on collision with a lorry, I think most people would be able to imagine how bad it was.
    Another thing, take a look at the 1st photo. Kenny, did you have in mind this blog entry when you snapped that photo? Were you picturing how you will be telling the story on your blog, and how you needed a good introductory photo? Were you picturing yourself getting a medal of honour from the police for your heroic efforts?

  232. Thank you for the answer given!! I really appreciate that…
    Just let’s say there’s an accident happened in a very rural area where there’s no other ppl around except for me, so I’m the only one calling for ambulance – in that case will I be attended?

  233. wa, call ambulance can get police recommendation liao wan a??? what is the number? i want also! one call only ma summore free one!

  234. John Stu + Ng, I do not mean any disrespect to the family and I most certainly do not mean to be inconsiderate. If the driver’s husband or the young girl’s parents request that I remove this entry, I will respectfully do so.
    Having said that, I wonder why you have established double standards towards me and towards the newspapers. Are you only disturbed by photos of a car accident on my blog, or are you similarly disturbed by photos of car accidents, tragedy, famine and war splashed across our newspapers every single day? If you can convince photojournalists of cnn.com to stop publishing ‘inconsiderate’ photos of war and tragedies, I promise you I will remove this posting as well. But please don’t have double standards.
    John Stu + Ng, you said that I am inconsiderate and disrespectful. Actually, I doubt your sincerity towards the victim’s family. Tell me, now that you know of this unfortunate incident that has befallen this family: Are you going to actively provide them with help and support, or are you just gonna stop at bashing kennysia.com?

  235. if there is ambulance available, they will attend to you, what i mean is normally there will be at least a call for help, if you in rural area i’m sure you will get attended too, provided you are able to hang on (touch wood), you might consider to use Kenny endosed mobile as he claims to be able to call in rural areas 🙂 no more curious already right!

  236. tears rolled down my cheeks when i was reading this post
    and i think i got the msg
    I WILL DRIVE CAREFULLY
    dont’t u think so?

  237. Kenny, there are hundreds of accidents happening everyday. Why should I provide help and support to this particular victim? Because the famous celebrity Kenny Sia is rallying behind them for his own personal reasons? Even if I did do something for any victim of any tragedy, no one will know about it, because I wont publish it on the internet, unlike you.
    And I have not seen a photo in any local english daily as gruesome as the one in this posting. Also, please do not equate yourself to a cnn reporter. They ARE journalists. You write crap here half the time. The reason people come back is because its funny. Not for the journalistic value. Please do not think so highly of yourself. You are nowhere close to being a cnn floor sweeper, what more a cnn reporter.
    And if you are such a great journalist, why are you not aware of the journalists code of conduct that was brought about by the Hillsborough Disaster in England?

  238. Kenny replied, but so long paragraph = Fuck you all la my blog my business la i don give a fuck you offended or not la… call CNN or STAR or BADAWI to screw me ok! kenny consider join politics ok? you got massive potential and popularity!

  239. My prayers to deceased…
    To the commentors who bashed up Kenny, u guys sucks.
    Kenny, I know how it felt to witness such a tragic accident as I personally have encountered not once but many many many times… believe it or not..
    To the extend of I will go and try to help out if I can even to just to bring the body out… and I’ve done it. I know the how it felt to see dead bodies lying motionless and it just sank your heart not knowing what to do. It’s okay… you’ve done your part. God bless. 🙂

  240. John Stu, now you are just getting abusive and personal against me.
    Clearly you do not have the victim’s welfare in your heart at all.
    Quote: “Why should I provide help and support to this particular victim?”
    John Stu, you make me sick.

  241. Kenny jin gao, kenny jin ho kia, mai ma kenny liao, ee jin kolian eh lu zai bo, john stu lu pun chin eng ho comment gao lat gao lat, tapi gua suka! Holiao

  242. Haha… ok ok, thanks 4 both the attention & reply. But actually I was told that even if there’s no reception, u can still call for emergency numbers – the only thing stops u from calling is when ur mobile phone is low batt.

  243. Kenny
    Thank you for this entry, you open my eyes and hopefully to more speed monsters that driving recklessly which only lead to disastrous consequences in the end, sooner or later.
    The pictures are not distasteful nor unrespectful to the victims or family of the victim or even the passerby. You took photos of the wreck (not the victims) to post it on your blog to serve as a reminder on how fragile life can be, and how easily life can be lost in our own hands. The accident can be prevented.
    Do ignore those who did not understand your intention/reason. They are too naive (I may say) to see the whole picture of the picture. (:P)
    My condolence for the victims and their family and friends.
    Be strong kenny!

  244. Opinions, opinions.
    Don’t judge others unless you want to be judged yourself.
    That goes for you, John Stu.
    And you, too, Kenny.

  245. Kenny,
    Abusive? Stop being a drama queen.
    “Clearly you do not have the victim’s welfare in your hearts at all.”
    First, I only have 1 heart, unfortunately. 2nd, whether or not I have the victim’s welfare in my “hearts”, at least I did not disrespect them, nor did I try to gain popularity off their tragedy.
    You have clearly misunderstood my statement ” “Why should I provide help and support to this particular victim?”.
    Why this particular one? Why don’t you give money to the family of every single person who dies in an accident? Just because you feel more strongly about this because you personally witnessed it doesn’t mean others should too. Maybe I feel more strongly about something else? About some other victim of some other tragedy?
    Kenny, how can a future CNN anchor be unable to understand such a simple statement?
    And I make you sick but your photos don’t?

  246. Kenny i think you lost it…. don’t take john stu words out of it’s context, i don’t think he meant that he has no intention to help people, instead it is a hypothetical question towards you. So keep your cool ok?

  247. Dear Kenny,
    Well, to be frank, I was very angry that you choose to publish these photos. I can’t stop uttering wtf upon the sightings of it. All those things you said and those pictures you posted would instantly pop up the word FAKE FAKE FAKE in head!!! I mean, how could someone be so calm to snap so many photos when it’s such an emergency? You definitely can’t blame those negative comments. We just can’t help ourselves but to be angry at the fact that you could walk up to the car and snap the 6th picture. You know, the picture of that poor kid which could win you RM50 from The Star if you send it to them? I mean, the first picture already could speak a thousand words, so there’s no such need you should speak another thousand words. You could just mention “Today I saw an accident. [Picture] It was horrifying but I did help. Hail me,” That’s it. You’re done. BUT NOOOO. You must give a long speech plus some hyperbole. Boss Stewie also had such problem last time but did he snap picture? Well, he did. But he did it after the accident. That’s why he is hailed as a hero while you’re… zero.
    I don’t think a norm blogger will get criticized until to the 18th floor of Hell if he blog about some accident. So what make you difference? You have status. You have reputation. You are Malaysia’s top blogger and there’s no doubt about it. Thus YOU, of all people, should know what kind of topic will generate positive or negative comments. So did you anticipate such problem will occur? I don’t know. But I can tell you, there’s nothing people like the most than to see the fall of a champion (Chelsea, anyone?). In Chinese saying, I would say you ‘la si seung sun’ (pull shit on yourself). Speaking of being the top in the business, you do know you have a responsibility, right? You are like the king and many (or maybe just some) people idolize you and just want to be like you! You do know you have children reading your blog. What kind of message you’re trying to tell them? Do you want them one day when they grow up to prioritize taking pictures more than helping in an accident? Think bout it!
    Morally speaking, I am proud of you to lend you hands. I really do. But morally speaking again, I am not proud of you to snap pictures of the accident. I’m glad you’re so calm trying to help in this situation but I’m not glad you’re so calm snapping pictures. I dare to say you dare to blog about it because you know the girl’s still alive. If the girl is dead (touch wood), I don’t think you would even mentioned it in Short Talk. To me, you are acting both angel and devil now. Clearly despite such panic, I believe while you’re busy clearing the traffic, there’s one tiny voice in your mind saying, “This will make an interesting to blog about,” Prove me wrong.
    Despite the negative comments, I’m sure these 200+ people have received the important message you are trying to deliver that reckless driving is really… reckless. How do I know? Well, at least those negative comments didn’t say anything like, “PADAN MUKA!!” But what’s really matter is the chatbox at the side of your blog. This bunch of people is clearly ignorant (or half-ignorant) about the issue you brought up. They are busy talking about karaoke when you are busy fending off the negative comments. IMHO, I think they’re even worse than those negative commenters. Would you rather want people to respond to you regardless what you blog or fail to see the very message you’re trying to deliver? I prefer the former.
    Besides, if you really dislike those negative comments, you could just simply disable it. Or even better, you could protect this entry. But heck, it’s too late to fix this problem since most of your readers surely had read it. Unless you do something silly like donating half your allowance to the victim or publicly say sorry, I don’t see how you get out of this big mess. Seriously, you do need to admit you’re wrong at the taking pictures part. Bear in mind you’re not wrong at helping people. Just say you’re wrong will not make you lose face, in fact you will gain more respect as it took a lot out of a man to admit he’s wrong. Just admit you have gone too far this time. Be a man, do the right thing.
    In the end, it’s just my 2 cents. I stand neither at the positive nor the negative commenters.

  248. my condolonces to the family involved….kenny, it will take awhile to recover from this. Take your time. A special prayer for the family members affected by this unfortunate incident. Fingers crossed. Bless you.

  249. I believe your earnesty and compassion. However, think: would you like your loved ones’ dying pictures on the Net? You did a gallant job helping but it is heartless to put up pics of ppl you don’t have permission from.

  250. Hey, John Stu.
    You weren’t there.
    You’re not Kenny.
    So what makes you think you’re a better person than he is?
    Even if he did make a mistake, he’s only human.
    And he did say he’ll take down the pics at the victims’ family’s request.

  251. Just received an sms from a friend of the victim’s family who read this blog.
    The four-year-old girl who was rescued to the hospital did not survive…
    I am not participating in any more discussion.

  252. Agree with Infectioner! Just that some people took it too personally and just scold kenny for the sake of scolding him. so i don’t condone such actions, nevertheless i agree that kenny is wrong in some ways yet correct in others.

  253. Hey Perspective,
    Funny you chose that nickname.
    Also, funny you should choose to waste 1 whole line to state the obvious i.e that I am not Kenny.
    And kudos to you for reading through all my posts and concluding that I was not there. That was genius.
    I never said that I am a better person than he is. I may be a rapist/murderer. But I would not have taken those photos in the 1st place. Taking the photos in itself is the behavious of a person who deserves to be caged like an animal. Later posting them on a blog that has a readership as wide as kennysia.com does, well, that goes beyond words.
    I am curious as to why you said this : “Even if he did make a mistake, he’s only human.” because, yes IF he did make a mistake, he is in fact only human. However due to the numerous technological advances in recent history, an “apology” has now been invented, and so has a delete button. Maybe you should grab your latest IT magazine for updates on this.

  254. Should photos be posted? Yes? No? I just think everyone should just shut the fuck up. It is ridiculous and it sounds that it is more of a anti-kenny tirade rather than a debate about morality or insensitivity.
    John Stu, I very very strongly disagree with what you said and I won’t waste another single breathe because self-righteous that you are will surely see nothing wrong in your long comments.
    Everyone, please just shuddup

  255. Omigosh!! May she rest in peace…
    Anyway, thanks for the update Kenny – it shows that your posting in the blog pays off – at least u get the news of the little girl, despite of all the “objection” comments…

  256. Kenny, since you are so compassionate and kind and can be comparable to Mother Theresa, why not stop blogging and go around and donate money and offer yourself or volunteer for those who need your help?
    Just because you happen to witness an accident and have time to take photos, load them onto your PC and blog them doesn’t automatically make you a compassionate person who do not have other self induced intentions.
    Stop faking it…

  257. Well, John Stu, the only point I’m trying to make is that none of us has the right to judge others. None of us are perfect.
    “Let he who is blameless cast the first stone.”
    I’m not throwing anything.

  258. Quoted from John Stu
    “I never said that I am a better person than he is. I may be a rapist/murderer. But I would not have taken those photos in the 1st place.”
    So u think raping and murdering someone is not that serious compared to Kenny snapping pictures of an accident scene har?

  259. Kenny is very depress already! stop harrassing him! can’t you see he doesn’t want to discuss anymore, if we want to bark bark loud loud he also won’t comment cause he already took alot effort in pushing his blog popularity today already… can’t you see all the effort put in it? damn he still has a day job to take into account man… now beat it until the next accident happen ok!

  260. [B]Infectioner[/B] i recon you read all the comment posted before u started trying to show off ur good command in english. or u are just too ignorant and wanted kennysia to agree with ur stance about taking picture of the accident scene.
    Clearly he stated that he took the picture only AFTER everything has settled down. Why u guys keep insisting that the first thing that came to his mind is “OMFG! take picture quick! this is rare!”
    And what is wrong about taking picture of the car wreckage? MIND YOU THERE IS NOT EVEN ANY GORE IN THAT PICTURE FOR GOODNESS SAKE!
    And lets remind all the retards out there, HE SAID HE TOOK THE PICTURE ONLY WHEN THERE IS NOTHING MORE HE COULD DO. He already did whatever he could.
    I bet those retards who criticising so much here would be the one who stay in the car driving as slow as they could to take a glimps of the accident and poof, life goes on as usual. Instead of stopping and provide help.

  261. think this is a journalistic take on the accident…
    about morals… how about journalists who take pics in warzone? they cant do anything to help too.. should they then not take pics?
    or kenny isnt entitled to take pics?
    whatever, think before anyone start throwing daggers and swords at another, reflect on own morals first

  262. Dear Taking pictures of accident is worse than murder/rape!, you are obviously another foolish idiot who does not understand the point I am trying to put across. If you don’t have a proper understanding of the english language don’t comment, as what you say will go off on a tangent.
    Well Perspective,
    By singling me out, are you sure you are not indirectly throwing one of your imaginary stones? What are the implications of what you are saying? By singling me out and saying generally that no one has the right to judge others are you not saying that I am being judgemental? Looks like Kenny has a fellow saint in Perspective. 2 of you can drive around together patrolling the streets to take photos of accident victims and at the same time calling ambulances.

  263. Oh Yeh? nothing else he can do?
    I remember him posting a picture of a man carrying a lifeless little girl to his motorcycle?
    Nothing he can do?
    What was he doing before he took the photo of the guy carrying the girl?
    Sit there weeping?
    Lame excuses are for lame people

  264. Many of you do not understand one simple concept:
    If that was your family that died in that accident, you would be not be so eager to defend Kenny’s choice to put up pictures of your dead family in the car that they died in.

  265. We make our own ways in life, and do things according to our beliefs and judgement. We also bear the consequences of our actions. I’m not condemning nor condoning Kenny’s actions but surely if we are concerned about our moral responsibilities, let’s stop casting stones and do our part. Let the victims rest and the survivor(s) rest in peace.

  266. June, Kenny couldn’t help take the girl to the hospital. He had to stay around so that the police could get his name to verify that he was the most helpful one there. Plus, he had to get more photos.

  267. *sigh
    Well, John Stu, I apologize if I’ve hurt your feelings. I’m just enjoying this verbal warfare.
    Just think about what I’ve said. I meant well.
    p.s. I’ll make sure I call the ambulance.

  268. John 8:3
    The teachers of the law and the Pharisees brought in a woman caught in adultery. They made her stand before the group and said to Jesus, “Teacher, this woman was caught in the act of adultery. In the Law Moses commanded us to stone such women. Now what do you say?” They were using this question as a trap, in order to have a basis for accusing him.
    But Jesus bent down and started to write on the ground with his finger. When they kept on questioning him, he straightened up and said to them, “If any one of you is without sin, let him be the first to throw a stone at her.”

  269. Firstly, Kenny, the fact that you are defending so vigorously your stance shows that those comments struck a nerve, and deep down you do feel bad for what you have done. That’s Psychology 101.
    Secondly, helping someone does not have to involve publicising how you have helped, and saying things like “had i not done this, that wouldn’t have happened”. Saving a life is a beautiful thing, flaunting that you have saved a life or aided the saving of a life is sad. Sad in the sense that you seem to want recognition for that.
    Thirdly, posting pictures and descriptions of what happened, especially when it involves the passing on of 4 lives, is a bit inconsiderate. Why? Because blogging about the dead in a blog that people usually associate with “entertainment” is just plain wrong.
    Fourthly, there is absolutely no difference between snapping pictures with hi-tech cams and sitting down oil-painting the scene. Both involve capturing an event. And a heart-wrenching event at that.
    Lastly, I quote “The LEAST you could do is call Sarawak General Hospital (+6082 257555), find out about her condition, and if need be, pledge a donation to her family. If you have already done so, you have my praise. If you haven’t, shame on you.” Unquote. Alright, so you have “donated”, big deal. And as if people care whether they have your praises or not, hey? And this ties in with Point Number 2.
    I know, Kenny, you expected people to heap praises on you for “doing good” when you clicked the “Post This Awesome Entry” button – but it ended up showing how immature you are deep down. I admit I have been a vivid reader of your blog, but when true colours shine through, they ironically pale my perceptions of you as a blogger and as a person. I am not trying to personally attack you, but I am disappointed.
    Utterly disappointed.

  270. John STU, that is a very good comment you posted there.
    I understand Kenny’s predicament in staying around to take more photos for his fellow readers.
    Without these tragedic and heart wrenching photos, there would not be enough impact for the readers to feel for him.
    Totally understand.

  271. As a blogger I can understand that you took the photo so that u can blog it. And you seriously wanna blog this to warn ppl about the consequence of speeding.
    So? Take one, and help!
    What r u doing when the guy carried the girl out? Taking photo?
    That was gross…you seriously NEED NOT to take so many photos….to show the sequence of the happening…from the beginning till the end….it’s too much…
    and….you can pen down the happening….if you wish to tell ppl about the sequence of incident…
    Taking photo from the beginning till the end? Sorry, I can’t accept it as being a good samaritan.

  272. Please leave all religion teachings or excerpt out of this ok? Thank you! Hate it when things like that pop out,

  273. kiraion, it’s not from the beginning lah.. he did all he could do already… he DIRECTED TRAFFIC you know… a CELEBRITY directing traffic man… come on… how often does that happen?
    and kiraion, if you did not call the hospital to ask about the girl, SHAME ON YOU!

  274. Another thing that pisses me off is that in that particular photo where a motorcyclist is carrying the little gal, there was also an overweight guy putting his hands over his shoulders as an emotional support. You can see that they both care.
    As for kenny sia, the posting of that photo shows us that he cares enough to the the photo and post it in his blog. Good for you kenny sia. I feel for the 2 guys that tried to help and as for you, you seemed like a real jerk by hiding behind your camera.

  275. To be honest, it is normal for kenny to take photo…if not him, someone else will. does it make any diff if kenny takes them instead of some other journalist or any other policemen? the point here, is about the accident…
    and it is normal for you to be ‘dumb’..and nobody really expect you to do anything..i am a fully trained first aider, even by saying so, it’s quite hard to react. the best you can do is to shut off the engine to prevent the car from blowing off. only if you’re sure enough, then you can move any casualty. if you’re not confident, just wait for the ambulance to arrive. Byah!!!

  276. Settle like this la…
    John Stu win…should go start his own Johnstu.com and bring all Kennysia.com readers with him lor.
    Steady?
    😉

  277. First of all, Kenny, I’m sorry to hear such a tragic news. i ever witness an accident b4, except it’s not THAT serious. and i know what it’s like. ur brain goes empty immediately. u wanted to do something but u just can’t. it’s not that u don’t want. >

  278. Very hard to react in such situations is also a very lame coward excuse!
    If it’s so hard and difficult to react, why are there people helping out the little girl?
    Everyone should just give a coward excuse by saying,”oh i could not react, let us all just take pictures and blog it. This will make this world a better place to live in.”

  279. Kenny, you made a wrong move there.
    You shld not have taken the photo of people helping out the little girl.
    In fact, you shld take photos of yourself calling the police and also directing traffic.
    That would prove that you did a lot to help out the victims.

  280. don’t blame Kenny for this post. He may have good intentions posting this blog entry, such as making us aware of the danger of wreckless driving, how life is precious, and maybe make us aware of this situation in case we face it in the future, since he thinks that he didn’t help out enough. I don’t blame him cos anyone will be in a state of distraught when facing this situation. But seriously, I still don’t know how he took the pictures (the camera must’ve pretty good anti-shake mode! :P)
    May the deceased RIP.

  281. shame on ya all… if u r in the situation, will u stop n helped? or will juz ‘omg.. how sad..’ n drives away…
    talking bullshyt is not enough.. make a sense dude..
    it’s no offence taking the pics.. he juz wanna share wid u guys his ‘rare’ experience.. yet such unexpected comments happen.. lol..
    if u r not happy wid it.. dun read… leaves! God noes whose heart is sincere…

  282. Kenny, Well done your pictures might actually help the investigatiom. I can understand how you feel. You are shaken up.
    Good on you for posting the pictures. The thing with our drivers is that they dont value life. Life is cheep for them. You hv been abroad u know how people are so responsible and follow rules.
    You can post 100 pictures thousands many die but our drivers will still be the same. The mentality is truly third class.

  283. the family runs a fast food shop infront of polytechnic kuching sarawak, somewhere 22km of matang.next to the polytech bus station

  284. i saw the news said that, the child that just passed away is only 5 years old. While the others whom died on the spot with their mum, was only 2 yr old and 8 months old. It could be you in the news if you do not take lessons from this.
    This accident occured when the lady trying to take over but unsuccessful. Bang with the truck from the opposite side.
    This really remind me of my own experience. I am studying in Melaka. One day, when my mum brought along my bro and my sis picked me from MMU(Uni) to Seremban. Before we reach the highway, a lot of cars in front of us. My mum couldn’t see the front, and she was wondering why those cars keep waiting and feel a bit impatient about it. So she just drove to the right trying to take over the front cars. Just when we were on the right lane, there was a big truck(without the long tail) moving towards us. My mum was shocked, well, I was shocked too. My mum was totally stunned. She didn’t do anything else except just move forward.
    All of sudden, we heard a loud honk from the truck. The truck managed to move to the other side, avoiding our car(kancil).
    We were lucky to be still alive. My mum was not patient enough to wait. After the incident, no one saying anything in the car, tried not to cause any anger or guilt since we had a long journey still.
    My message was, please be patient no matter what on the road. Do learn some lesson from this post. Life is fragile.

  285. John stu u sound like someone who are jealous of his popularity and take this opportunity to bash kennysia.com
    I think u forget some important point here.
    First, this is his blog, his personel online diary. You dont walk into people’s life and teach them what to write in thier diary do you?
    Secondly, heck, from what i see he didnt beg you guys to read his blog. He just publish whatever he wants, he has the freedom to do so. Why should he change his writing style for the sake of the crowd… especially YOU! who has nothing to do with his life. Dont mould someone else to suit ur taste. If you dont like it then dont read.
    Thirdly, taking picture of accident scene which do not involve the details of victim. i dont see any problem with that. Which part of the picture is so gruesom to you? Clearly u are just trying to exaggerate thing just to flame kennysia.com
    Fourthly, he took the initiative to offer help by directing traffic. Why are u being so heartless to make fun of it? If u were there what would u have done? Judging from the way u talk here, u wont even care to stop and offer any help. As i said, u are among the traffic slower, u will slow down just to take a glimps of it.
    Finally, picture of volunteer carrying the little girl. So erm, u wanted kennysia to tap on the other shoulder of the volunteer for moral support? Oh ya, maybe he should help carry the girl too eventhough he doesnt need to just to show ppl he care? You care from the bottom of ur heart, you dont do unneccesary thing to win the heart of crowd. Grow up!

  286. Good idea, Kenny sia should just save the photos in his PC and write a diary instead. He does not even have to blog it at all, since it is that personal to him and no one else should comment about it?
    If you cant take comments, don’t even blog it and allow people to comment on the blog.
    Yeh he should just care from the bottom of his heart and keep snapping photos. Obviously that’s what he does best.
    Thanks for the guide.
    From now onwards, we shld all just care from out hearts and not lift any fingers to help or even snap pictures.
    And next, we must blog it to the world that we cared from our heart so that other people will know that deep down within you, you cared.

  287. God, please open the eyes of those are reading the blog now. Its is not the matter of why snapping photos, why not helping, who is right and who is wrong. Its the matter of, those who is survived or not. Please comfort the family of the lost. Please take care of them and strengthen them. With this blog, these pictures, we all get to understand how bad the situation was. Without the pictures and information and the comments here, we all dont know what had happenned, its could be “just another accident”. Now, all we can do is pray for those didnt understand why the pictures are here, so that they have the wisdom to understand the situation of Kenny and the victims of the accident. May god bless everyone who read this and those are “unable” to read this. Kenny, be strong and dont take it too seriously. Take care everyone. I really felt bad for what had happenned.

  288. woo~I just read bout this in the paper a while ago..The lady was only 22 years old with 2 kids and with the mom am niece at that time. It’s really horrific. The borneo post disn’t post much bout it.. It’s so sad.

  289. i support u steven 13…
    tis is his blog.. his life, his matter.. u outsiders hav no rights 2 force him change his writing style juz to suit u.. lol..
    criticize r of destructive n constructive.. but pls watch ur tone… ya nid sum moral lessons..

  290. i dont find anything wrong, you snapped pictures of the incident. i have no idea why so many peole make it as a big deal. -_-”
    after all you guys are not in the place where the accident took place. u have no right to judge kenny! although kenny knows some basic step of first aid but not all people are trained to handle such situation. as people said…” saying words is easy but not everyone can really do as they said”

  291. dont you understand simple english that he offered help? its not like he did nothing except taking picture. THe point is there is nothing more he could do. for goodness sake please stop being so ignorant and calm down and THINK!
    Everyone could take comment, but not senseless comment like yours.

  292. I don’t really understand why so many people are criticizing Kenny here…
    Let’s all be frank. If we were in his situation, we would either be so freaked out that we might need help, or just looking on doing nothing. At least Kenny did something. At least the dude managed to help those people. And he is still feeling bad about it.
    As for the photo’s, it’s up to him as to take them or not. As far as I can see, the pictures are not offensive and in fact, this entry has garnered more following than what is written about it in the papers.
    If it wasn’t for this entry, ya’ll probably would write this off as just another accident and wouldn’t give 2 sens as to what happened to those people involved. At least people now are concerned…
    So come on la… Stop flaming the dude…

  293. TO: John Stu, Kenny & all those that actively have their points and reasonings.
    Guys, I think the arguement has gone beyond its main topic already. In the end of the day, many lives were lost, lesson should be learned and feelings were tossed around with statements and accusations.
    But I feel, enough is enough, dont you think? Kenny doesnt feel good about this post & ive sure it’ll be one that will stay in his mind for days to come. When u assist in an accident especially one where lives are lost, it just doesnt go away that easily. The sight of the crash, the debris, the blood, the lifeless bodies and those fighting to survive. It will always be in Kenny’s mind. I feel to begin with, it wasnt his fault to be there. He wasn’t the lorry driver or directly involved in the accident. He was innocent.
    Let things be. Let it all go. For those who really care for the victims and also the little girl who passed away in the hospital, I propose that you respect them, respect their families and lend a helping hand by givinge a moment of silence and let this issue rest along with the family that was lost tragically today.
    Bare in mind that these happens day in & day out. Lives are lost every other second. What has happened im pretty sure noone reading would have wished it to occured especially Kenny. Let’s now be extra vigilant and whenever we’re on the road, let this be a reminder that life is our most valueable asset.
    To the family & victims and to the readers and truly feel for this unfortunate incident, be at peace. To Kenny, this will be one hard experience for you. Feel no anger, feel no guilt. Let it rest too.

  294. I agree with what Kenny was doing on the spot… It’s better to see how bad the accident was rather than hearing it from people…. And yea, I would’ve been dumbstruck if I were in Kenny’s situation… ='(

  295. firstly, i would like to forward my deepest sympathies to those who perished in the accident.
    some of us here are more worried about ‘whether it was allright for kenny to take pictures’ than to actually think of the message of these photos.
    with slightly gruesome pics at hand, i’d have to say, it would bring an impact to most of us, to remind us to drive carefully in the near future and such. for that i thank you.
    i guess the prominence of ur blog has sparked jealousy amongst others, and well, it’s not surprising. such is the price of fame, i’d say. let it be, and i hope u’ll recover from all this.
    keep on blogging, and be strong!

  296. he just trying to give every1 remember drive carefully, although just have a accident, we don’t hope will have other kind accident again..maybe after u c this post, u will drive carefully n always got this in ur mind, kenny, u r rite, n this type serious accident, even u know 1st aid.. u oso cant help … only the professional can do 1st aid on the victim, its true, even u r scout or st.john, u oso cannot give them 1st aid,.. n bomba not there.. u cannot pull them out oso … maybe can try to settle the traffic over there….to make sure the ambulance n bomba can come asap, taking pic.. n let u all c is.. maybe remind u all drive carefull.. once accident not oni the DRIVER involve.. the PASSANGER oso will involve..
    DRIVE SAFELY

  297. a horrifying accident happened and all some humans can do is to argue over a few photo snapped on the scene? isnt there something more important for us as humans to put our thoughts into when such things occured? like how can WE do better (for those who think kenny din do enough) if we ever meet with such a situation and for others, what else can we do if we meet with other accidents..

  298. After reading the entry, I could only sit back against the chair in wordless shock, the images swimming in my mind. May the lady and the children be in a happy and safe place. My prayer goes to the little girl and to the family.
    I am sorry that you have had to witness this traumatising tragedy. 🙁

  299. Such tragedy. I will not comment on your photos, as you have your points and your oppositions have theirs.
    Kenny, I believe you must be rather traumatised yourself. Do realise it’s okay to feel what you are feeling now.
    Seek professional help if you need. Witnessing such a traumatic scene has adverse effects on adults and children alike.
    I am also truly sorry that you couldn’t have done more but I think it’s time to let go and move on.

  300. I think Kenny should do everyone a good favor by removing this (I mean only this) blog and all the pictures (of this blog) to show respect to the victim. that is the least u could do.

  301. kenny, u have done all u could have done for the victims. i’m sure kenny isn’t feeling very good himself, for all these reactions caused. but everyone seems to have got off topic now. everybody is talking about the photos, not the victims. be considerate, people.
    my condolences to the victims’ family.

  302. First of all, my sincere condolences to the family of the deceased. Second of all, I hope Kenny is OK post-trauma, especially after all the malicious flaming.
    I have had loved ones pass away in road accidents. It is never an easy experience to have to deal with.
    I personally feel that with the family’s consent, the pictures on this blog will serve as a grim reminder of the fragility of life and the dangers of speeding / getting distracted on the road. Most readers are between 18-30, I believe.
    Please drive safely.

  303. We should not comment on what kenny should do. If Condolence to the victims’ family. 🙁 Well, if we expect everyone to follow what we think should be done. You are just carrying anger and upset feelings in you, which is stupid. Rather, if you do not insist people following your SHOULD do, you will feel better and happier which is a wiser option. It is kenny’s blog world, we can personally analyse whether it is proper or not to have done so, but we should not insist him to follow what we think that SHOULD be done.

  304. I’m also very sorry to hear that the little girl didn’t make it. Heartfelt condolences and prayer goes out to the family.
    There is a lot for us to learn from this tragedy, and how people react to it.

  305. Stop saying that Kenny should not take pictures la. I mean if you were in his shoes, you probably just drive pass, stop for a while, create a small traffic jam then leave the place. Who would actually stop their car, come down to offer helps? So please, stop acting as though you are such an angel and stuff. There’s nothing anyone can do because most of the victims were dead.
    Seriously, ask yourself, would you even stop your car to come down and lend a hand. Then, only start commenting.

  306. I hope those that survived are doing okay, and my condolences go out to the family of the victim(s).
    Sure Kenny could’ve just posted a blog entry with no pictures describing the car accident, but like someone said earlier pictures say a thousand words. Maybe these pictures will remind people of what could become of them by driving errantly (which seems to be pretty prevalent on Malaysia roads).
    It’s an unfortunate incident, and if these pictures help other drivers drive even a little bit safer, they served their purpose.

  307. It is nobody’s right to define what’s morally right or wrong. Taking photographs at accident scenes, whether morally sound or otherwise, is as much controversial as abortion or euthanasia.
    Some newspapers publish gruesome accident pics everyday for the nation to see. Would that have been considered disrespectful to the victims’ families? Or would you have in mind that because of a blogger posting it, it would then change the whole dynamics into being a ridicule? If so, are there any strong evidence of a ridicule (including showing the faces of those victims)?
    Criticizing on the grounds that taking photos at accident scenes and posting it publicly is wrong, is strictly subjective.
    Whether Kenny did enough to help, who are we to judge? Are you sure you would have offered more help than him given a similar situation? Are you sure that any random guy out there would have done better than him in this situation?
    It is a personal blog after all. Unless there’s a law prohibiting this, the pics n entry need not go.

  308. Aiya, just read the blog and shuutupp. Bloody idiots complain about everything. So what if kennysia took pictures of the scene? Didn’t it give all of us a better picture of what happened? Satisfy our natural human curiosity?
    All you facqers complaining about the photos should just admit you’re jealous of kennysia’s popularity. Don’t be mad at kennysia just because nobody reads your pathetic blogs (no photos)
    And if you complain some more about photos, just go fac yourselves. Maybe that will hit some common sense to your frail minds. Idiots!!

  309. Kids,
    Stop bickering! According to today’s Star report, 4 from the same family died in that nasty accident. Let’s pray for their souls instead!

  310. Keep your conscience clear, Kenny!
    Don’t bother with other people trying to make you feel bad.
    You did your best and u took the best respectable photos!
    As for those ‘sensitive’ people critising u.. Don’t read newspapers then!!!

  311. My deepest condolences for the family, hope the little girl is fine. It must be really depressing for the little girl’s family.

  312. Lanjiao! say nothing can be done only take picture but can take picture of good citizen who actually doing something carrying the victim to hospital, Kenny you sure can talk cock!
    Posted by: kenny is a cocker at 18 May 2007 12:20 PM | Link to comment
    Use ur fucking pea brain to think…..u need how many ppl u need to carry 1 small girl to hospital??
    1 guy carry the arms 1 carry the legs? 1 open car door? 1 step the accelerator, 1 to change gear?? Fuck…. use ur brain to think….if u have 1….

  313. As one of the commentators said, you guys are picking on him just because he is Kennysia.
    This is true. There was a nobody who posted photos of the Subang Parade Poh Kong shoot out victims, like up close shots. Barely a meter away from the deceased. You could even see the hole in the forehead where the bullet went through.
    You know what people said, “Wah!! Terrer la you… even got time to take photos!”
    but not a single hate comment. (or maybe some might have accumulated, but up to nearly a week, the blog was still unflamed.)
    Kenny didn’t do anything wrong. He knew it was insensitive to take photos of the victims but of the wreckage, I’m sure he thought it through and through.
    But I’d like to thank Kenny for putting up this photos which serves as a reminder to us to treasure our lives and becareful on the roads.

  314. wahlaooo… people who are bashing kenny,
    you people so super know how to check for spinal injury on the scene kar??? know how to check for internal bleeding kar??know how check for neck trauma???…basic first aid is BASIC first aid…if u know how to diagnose spinal injury and internal bleeding u’ll probably need a MD behind your name and will probably need a MRI’s and a few CAT scans to diagnose it…
    posting this up means people will know about it…and people will talk about it…i.e spreading the word, so other people will be more careful.And to send condolences to the families involved.
    Also people who are concerned about the ethical issue of snapping photos, sounds like they didn’t even read the part where people die, did you at any time offer any kind of support for the family,a condolence maybe???i doubt it??as for the “why should i support this particular case debate?” i ask you this question why you are making such a fuss over THIS particular case???you might as well trash the red cross and say why should i support this particular foundation who helps millions of people.
    as for the person who said kenny’s rich and should support the family privately,you are SELFISH to the max dude,just coz u don’t want to donate say “i don’t want to donate lar”
    As for people who think journalist tells a better recollection of what’s happened, well erm… last time i check they are also human who write the stories in their own view,(I’m sure if go to places of war and watch the local news they would show the news in the reporters point of view….i.e probably contradictory to our own),++they weren’t there on the scene.It’s like asking you to write a story on the scenery in greenland without you even going there b4.
    here’s a question in regards to the guy with the helmet carrying the girl….How many people does it take to carry a girl???just one(maybe two)…and how many people were on the scene trying to help 20 odd people…ever heard of too many cooks ruin a soup….same concept lar…stop bashing one person, he superman kar???he HOUSE MD kar??anyone one grey’s anatomy issit??
    oh and pictures are important to any investigation,do you know how hard issit to calculate momentum, impulse changes in kinetic and potential energy and all the other investigation things when the car has been changed by the authorities trying to get the people out???
    P.S condolences to the families involved and anyone who witnessed the horrific incident.
    PPS Stop bashing people and show some compassion to those involved.
    DRIVE safe,peace

  315. you all stupid people who gave negative feedback,just think in a positive way this picture teach us a good lesson that every time we are on the road just remeber ours love one is waiting for us to get home safely not just show off how silkful you are at the road ,a bit of mistake u will never see your love one again.And stop give bad comment about wheather taking those picture is right or wrong.If u were kenny at the scence i dont think you can do much help to the victim.There is another victim sill at the ICU WAD lets us pray for her to get through this .

  316. dun blame urself kenny… well we normal citizens dun noe the right procedure for emergency 1st aid… and the outcome may be worse if it is performed without professional experience n knowledge
    sad piece of story… =(
    my condolences to the victims
    thanks for sharing it wif us

  317. i once involved in the same situation like u..
    a car knocked down a cycling boy..
    i DID help them, because the uncle aunty there seems like dont noe wat to do..
    i ordered the driver not to send the boy to clinic but GH..i even go find the boy’s family by asking one by one around the neighbourhood..my friend and i just try luck, luckily we did managed to find and inform his family..although i dont know what happen to that little boy..god bless..
    u already do what u supposed to do..at least, we are not a bystander..

  318. this is plain juvenile… you guys bangin kenny for nuthin…. sheesh… accidents happen everyday….. it just so happened that this time its horrid…
    blast all you bastards…

  319. Don’t blame yourself, Kenny. You can be equipped with all the necessary skills and knowledge but when people encounter this kind of scene, it’s natural they become lost and don’t know how to act, all of a sudden.

  320. Kenny
    I read your blog often, but i have very rarely commented.
    Dont get yourself down with what people say to you about snapping pictures. It isnt like you just took pictures without helping, but took pictures as there wasnt anything else to do.I think that the criticism directed at you is wrong.
    You blogging about this will make us ALL much more aware about driving safely as shit happens. i personally will drive much more carefully next time.
    thanks

  321. Kenny, I myself had witness an accident in which a cargo truck hit a motorcylist (with a pillion rider). The truck was moving quite fast but veered to the right side to try avoid hitting the motorcyclist, but to no avail.
    Should the truck veered to the left side, it would have hit the car I’m travelling in instead.
    I was so shocked…and went blank. Until today, the image of the lifeless body of the pillion rider haunted me and I shivered everytime I passed the junction..
    I just want to say, I know how it feels…

  322. You young people should spend more time reading stuff like http://blog.limkitsiang.com – that can really open your eyes and see what the country is really like! but alas even if all the ppl on the internet read uncle Lim’s blog, BN can still count on uneducated country folks to vote them in and continue providing dangerous roads like thes for you and your children!

  323. the best part of reading kennysia’s blog is when there are contradiction in the comment part, where everyone start to argue who is right and wrong. writing long essays to support their arguements. as if everyone is doing an assignment given by their lecturer about the ethics.

  324. As a regular reader of your blog, I did not think putting up the pictures was a good idea.
    Sorry to say this, but the least you can do to respect the family of the deceased is to leave the pictures out.
    It’s just in bad taste.

  325. This is crazy! Kenny taking pictures and everyone’e getting mad. Cmon la! U wanna blame him for being insensitive? Then you all gonna blame all journalists, all reporters in the world for being insensitive la! Then newspapers wont have pictures of the accident or of people in casket. U all say Kenny wanna achieve get positive rating for his own blog. Cmon la! Newspaper also the same la! Kenny blogger surely will blog abt things happening wann mah. He already din take pics of the victims or number plate. Just take pics of the ACCIDENT – HOW BAD IT IS NIA. That is ok right? Not like he took pics of the lifeless girl with half open eyes oso! Ayoyo. Pls la. Stop attacking him la. He has already done his best dy. At least la concern about him! It’s so traumatising la to actually witness a FATAL accident!! Cant slp, cant eat, keep on thinking about it nia. U think he also like kah? Aiseh.
    Pls drive carefully. Life is fragile. RIP to the deceased and hope the little girl is recuperating.

  326. If you don’t like what are you reading here, why don’t you just F off or stfu?
    It’s his blog, and who are you to give a damn about it? What’s the fuss?
    We are all grown up, so what’s the big deal?
    My condolences to the family, may they rest in peace.

  327. what?! no offence. but i just felt the entry was absurd. u said u were in shock. yet u are still able to CALMLY snap such high quality photos- especially of that girl in blood. a person in true shock will prob just stand in shock.

  328. this is indeed depressing news. if it was me i think i would have stood there in shock. my deepest condolences to the family.

  329. Hi Kenny:
    Don’t let the negative comments bring you down,I think they commented just because you are Kenny Sia!The most popular and the best blogger in M’sia!

  330. If you had just put one or two pics, you’d have driven the point home about reckless driving and nobody will tear you apart like this but no, you gave a series of pics, like your Kinabalu climb, starting from impact to discovery of bodies to heroic acts and so on and you have the gall to declare nobody else but YOU did anything, like a self-righteous preacher. You’ve exposed your egotistical tail, but of course that’s not surprising b/c why else do you tell the world about your boring life?
    Btw, very good phone camera there, despite ur shaking. What make n model u using?

  331. Fantastic, all of you just managed to generate a huge spike of traffic to kennysia.com, increased his popularity oh…and maybe revenue as well.
    He is either very smart or very immature. Controversy sells.
    Thanks whatever god that there is still people around that doesn’t hail blindly to Kenny as an idol or role model. Kudos to John Stu, nicely said. I couldn’t have done better.
    Please, most people don’t give crap about his popularity. Being famous doesn’t exactly give him immunity and it doesn’t make him right all the time either.

  332. when i reading through the comments…it make me wonder how old are you guys…
    by the way, is his blog not urs..dun like it shut up and leave the blog..
    By the way, for those which is so free to comment..how about get a life…kidss

  333. JACKASSES, BASTARDS.. Would appreciate if you guys can spent a moment of silent and pray for the departed and their family instead of debating or showing your support to Kenny. MALAYSIANS (sigh)! Please show some maturity in your thinking! So please STOP REPLYING ANYTHING if you want to show your respect to the departed and the rest of the readers.

  334. I agree with John Stu, Qi and Infectioner.
    Kenny – at least now you know this posting has attracted 400+ comments – this is an achievement in itself?
    More sensitivity should be displayed, I don’t think Kenny is a ‘bad’ person – he should have displayed more tact and understanding.
    And all you ‘KennySia’ fans out there – for goodness sake, calm down and THINK. Don’t just jump onto the support bandwagon or say things just to make someone feel better…

  336. wonder how kenny will like it if his parents were involved in a road traffic accident and i took pictures of it and put it up on a well read blog. guess he wont mind since he does it himself

  337. Dear UKnowWhoAmI/Paul
    You need a lesson in counting. 🙂 you ommited Xian and Geex from your hit-list tally count – after posting your rant.
    Everyone has a right to express their opinion/s. That is life. Deal with it.

  338. err…i dun understand y som ppl r gettin so er…irritated? by the pics kenny took. its not like he go zoom to the gal’s face n took her pic…n then do photoshop n show tat the gal’s dead or sumthing. no name, no face, onli leg…wats the fuss bout??? and its not tat he dun wanna help…he xplained tat he’s scared n traumatized…which word u dun understand here? wat if…he moved sumone…n tat sumone die bcoz he moved her??? tat would b worse. and wat could u all ppl do if u were in his shoe? prob some would juz pass by without even helping…and he reli did a great job by calling for emergency n direct a bit of traffic. but then, he said…his car is parked at side? how does tat contribute to traffic jam? shudn’t u ppl put tat blame on the passerby who slow down to look?? n does it matter wat fone he use? no need go bang bang him on wat model of fone he use…and…he gav a warning of distraught pictures ahead…so, if u dun like it…leave the site…unless kenny is next to u pointing a gun to ur head…n ask u to read on. so pls stop critisizing him, n i agree…blog is a place for bloggers to xpress himself. so u ppl go xpress ur…irritation in ur own blog. dun come xpress here alll…its irritating enuf. n condolences to the family of victims.

  341. wtf: Of course he wouldn’t mind if his loved ones’ dying pics r posted; any publicity is better than no publicity.

  342. yea yea.. man .. its all kenny’s fault.. eh can i suggest you guys go to a photo forum like velocity-media.net\forums, ? i think i saw.. like erm.. countless pictures of accidents there, are you saying that all those ppl are also heartless? to take pictures? hey perhaps those ppl taking pics in warzones should sell off their kick ass expensive camera’s and use the money for the poor kids there huh?

  343. Do you see any deliberately sensationalized pictures in here? Do you see gore dripping from bodies like in the chinese newspapers?
    No you do not.
    Quite frankly, I think most of the outcry here against Kenny is a load of thrash talk by people who have nothing better to do than act self righteous.
    Honestly, I’m not a fan of his, but the way you idiots are railing at him for his actions disgusts me.
    And I bet there are even those who considered stealing these pics and claiming it as their own.
    It’s his blog, why shouldn’t he post something which happened in his daily life? Don’t preach to me about tact either, because from what I’ve read from a majority of these garbled comments, most of you don’t have the faintest clue.
    Even if it reached out and slapped you in the face.

  344. geez you guys, stop it. he did his best trying to help as compared to most of you that will just drive away. taking photos isn’t something bad. go and scold all the reporters and photographers if you are offended by photo publishing act. dont google any image as they will offend you anyway and pls don read any article that contain photograph. childish idiots.

  345. kenny you are a pig and you know that! PIG! and all those people who only know how to ask others to shut the fuck up are just retards! ask people not to come and comment why don’t you guys leave then! Comments aren’t only restricted to pity and praises FYI…

  346. Will
    I don’t think he even dare to go near the dead body and take pictures! that would be even more insulting and disrespect! lucky enough he didnt do it! or else worse comments will be expected.

    (ok, will stop behaving so childishly like Paul aka Idiot aka UKnowWhoAmI now.. and maybe start my own blog!)
    Good luck, Kenny.

  348. Ken-you have a niece n nephew, don’t you? So did someone, but they all died today and some xxx posted their pics (tactfully avoiding their faces) all over his blog in the name of blogging as a hobby and informing the public about road accidents. Shame on u!

  349. Kenny are you reading all these comments? hope you are happy now, knowing so many people had viewed your blog and your advertisers must be proud of you… not to mentioned having such a big bunch of followers… feel powerful? let out a big evil laugh then… MUAHAHAHHA…asshole.

  350. no he did it not to inform the public but for ‘one day in the life of Ken,’ just another incident to tell. Next!

  351. lets all push the 600 comments barrier!!! chiong ah!!! let kenny know that his holy objective of projecting himself as the saint of all saints and his great powers comes with great responsibility role of educating the public of road hazards failed!
    you stand at the road direct traffic also blocking cars la you fat bastard! go cam-whore instead!

  352. I don’t think there is a need for Kenny Sia to try and explain or rationalise his actions anymore. People who are leaving negative comments are simply making personal attacks at him. The fact is Kenny Sia stopped to help and stayed to leave his statement. If every bystander were to leave the scene, the police would not be able to investigate the matter.

  353. Idiot: Ironic that you are using that nickname.
    Name list of bastard that calls others bastard, but doesn’t know how to shut up himself.
    1) Idiot
    2) o…still Idiot
    will: Yes we all agree that he did the right thing by calling ambulance and so on and so forth. Its the pictures that is making all the hoo-hah.
    angelchan: “when i reading through the comments…it make me wonder how old are you guys…
    by the way, is his blog not urs..dun like it shut up and leave the blog..
    By the way, for those which is so free to comment..how about get a life…kidss”
    Again, another one. Looking at the way u commented makes really makes me want to wonder what your age is? Oh..and I don’t think it has anything to do with it either.
    I also assumed that you do not have a life(as stated by yourself) as you are also so free as to comment here. If you also don’t like seeing the comments here then leave lor.

  354. yarn, you seriously think the police will investigate this accident? if so PDRM will be the best police force in the world lo….kenny stay just to take pictures and be a busybody bitch just like everyone else there…hoping to get interviewed by tv3 or star.

  355. Kenny did his best already…I don’t know what I would do if I was there…I’d probably be too traumatized to do anything…My mind would have probably gone blank…All of you who are condemning Kenny for not doing enough, what else could you have done? More harm?
    It really is such a tragedy…Tears swelled up in my eyes as I read the entry and saw the pictures…I guess we really should try our best to be more careful and patient on the road…Especially when we have children in the car…The lives of others are in your hands…and this incident is even more so tragic as it was the driver’s own children…I am always a more cautious driver when my little brother is in the car with me…
    boob_omatic: I think your comment is really insensitive…Sure the driver was wrong but they’ve already lost their lives and you can still bring yourself to say something like that…We all get impatient on the road sometimes…We all make mistakes…What if this happened to someone you knew or to a loved one of yours? Would you still say the same thing? Gosh really!
    The whole Kenny-Sia-shouldn’t-have-take-pics debate: I think Kenny was only trying to remind us to be more careful on the road especially when we’re driving with our loved ones and children…And pictures do speak a thousand words…The pics create a greater impact and show us the seriousness of the consequences of being impatient on the road and drives home the message…plus I think the entry is also his way of trying to reach the family of the victims…
    It really breaks my heart to think of the children who passed away in the tragedy…May God Bless and Heal the little girl and give her the strength to survive…

  356. I lost 3 friends in an accident in Subang recently,
    it was hard. However, I never got the chance to say goodbye, and I wish I had.
    Kenny, you did not do anything wrong, you took photos, as this blog belongs to you, and it is a journal of your life and your experiences.
    I say to those anti-kennysia.com, good luck coping with your inferior complex.
    Good Luck Kenny, as this post gave me an insight on the real danger of the Malaysian Road System. Thank you.

  357. WHAT A FUCKING DIPSHIT KENNY… insensitive PRICK!!! i told u guys i told u what a dick he was… so much for your favourite fucking blogger… what a dipshit… snapping pics… i hope u can rest in peace now kenny that u know u traded a few lives for your STUPID FUCKING BLOG!!! man sometimes i really think u should come back to reality and stop living off your computer… do something to help the world or just get shot and pissed upon… FUCK U seriously

  358. I think people like john stu, kee, and all other flamers are like.. retards in real life who has everything in life except a life (pun intended) and real friends (do you guys even know what “real friends” means anyway?). You guys are the sort who:
    1.hides behind the computer,
    2.talk alot of rubbish,
    3,wanks alot,
    4.are actually disappointed that you’ve been stung by a mosquito instead of a spider.
    5.dreams of having sex with mary jane all day long
    Get a life, go out into the real world and see what supermans you can be. That ought to fucking shut you guys up. Oh, don forget your superman costume, except that your “S” stands for Stupid, or maybe you guys can change it to “FS” that stands for “Fucking Stupid” instead. Hows that sound to you eh?
    P.S: I’m not coming back here for discussions or to check what you wankers have to say anymore, so go ahead, flame me. I’m gonna catch spiderman now. Have fun dickheads.
    P.P.s: My deepest condolences to the deceased. May their souls rest in peace.

  359. “wa….got accident, use phone call ambulance! i am a hero! i can be yourrr herooo, take pictures! i am a professional blogger, have to inform my no-life hungry for new blogs supporters, i know liao, first take a picture of sideways, next ah… oh a sohai go save the girl better take one of that nice shot, then hor take one with part of the body can see one, in case too sensitive people offended yet want to show something controversy sikit so that more viewers ma duh! ok la the stupid ambulance finally come take one more picture la! but too bad la abit paiseh dare not ask people take picture of me direct traffic and call help. if not the best adi. yay today no need to show all those meet that blogger go here travel buy that stuff blogs liao supporters starting to be immune with those blogs adi, this one NEW! FRESH! CONTROVERSY! i like…..

  360. To all the kenny’s ‘yes’men
    If any of your family members died from tragedies and accidents, you call Kenny up right away ok?
    He will dash right up to your place, snaps snaps snaps and put them on blog before the reporters do.
    So he is a hero. He happened to be at the crash site, he helps, stop, snaps, helps, stop, snaps.
    Just think la.. what on earth was he thinking when he was snapping those photos if not for the benefit of this blog?
    In another words, shouldnt we say Kenny took those pictures and put them up mostly, if not solely for the benefit for himself to generate positive viewership? To enhance his presence in the blogosphere? To create a buzz around his name? So that to translate those intangible fames he already has on web, to real life so that so make them more keenly felt? Say… on national television maybe?
    Viewership does go stagnant if you do not have something to stir it up once in a while, no?

    On a marketing point of view, this is a reasonable deduction. Subconciously, he is generating hits to his site. Oh yes, he is an opportunist alright.

  361. wah, spiderman superman aso come out liao…what next… goodrubber not coming back? then i might as well say FUCK YOU PSYCHO half the people here don’t even get what you are saying lousy piece of shit, what the fuck…people like you make my day man hahaha

  362. people are given a choice to blog what they want and read what they want. please stop criticising kenny. if you think you can do a better job at helping the society, then why is it i don’t see you people helping out at old folk’s home or at the orphanage? why aren’t you helping out by rehoming the homeless abandoned cats and dogs that are straying on the streets and being cruelly treated? why aren’t you in volunteer teams helping out with the natural disasters? please stop talking big and criticising other people without first looking at yourself as a person wasting the world’s precious oxygen and our country’s limited resources.
    if you think you’re so great and can do a better job at making the world better by blogging, go ahead and let us know when you make it, coz by then i’d most probably be busy cleaning out my dentures and washing my grandma underwears.

  363. I guess the only person who have the rights to strip kennysia off the photos are the family members/relatives of the victims…

  364. LariesT: Yes we know and we agree. Its the act of him taking the pictures and posting them here. Which he can do without and would have also gotten the message of the post across to all.

  365. Hi kenny,
    My deepest condolence to the victims family. Hope you recover from the trauma. I’m saddened to what can happen when we do not take the right step in driving. Wished that the driver could be more patient.
    Hope everyone learnt a lesson from this entry. It’s a good entry to remind everyone that life could be just over for our own carelessness…
    Dun blame kenny for taking that pictures.. I might have done tat too if i were in his place at that time. This whole entry make me speechless and to care about the loves one around me.
    Take care everyone!
    Cheers!
    Lynn

  366. “…u [kenny] traded a few lives for your STUPID FUCKING BLOG!!!”
    eh kenny, since when u become the lorry driver ah?…why are the people accusing you being insensitive and killing the victims? they’ve resort to cursing you and your family members too…tsk tsk tsk! how low….

  367. GoodRubber:
    Your point doesn’t make sense. I don’t think your rubber is actually that good. Stop talking rubbish.
    Good bye and good riddance.

    Does the public has a justifiable need to see this? We have on average 20-50 fatal accidents a day. It is already an well know fact that recklessness, poor judgment and speed kills.

  368. Condolences for the victim’s family. I don’t know what else to say to the victims.
    Kenny, if possible, have an update about the surviving little girl.
    Side note:
    Where are the concern for the victims?
    How come so many moral police who are more bothered about the anonymous photos than about the surviving little girl?
    Is this the real Malaysian attitude?
    I’m deeply saddened and humiliated after reading the comments left by all these people.

  369. Just read the comment entry Kenny made regarding the 5-yr old girl not surviving…my condolences to the family…May they all RIP…

  370. LariesT:
    Not bad, selective reading. Its not gonna change anything.

    “I bet half of you guys who complained about Kenny taking the photo didn’t even bother to read Kenny’s explanation.
    He himself is a professional blogger, taking photos to further let us readers visualize the scene wasn’t wrong.
    …..”
    Yes, we read his explanation. But that is not the point.
    Apparently you not thinking either. Let me ask, what guidelines do you use when classifying bloggers as professional?

  371. Hey Kenny,
    I think you have done the right thing by not moving the injured from the vehicle unless there is an imminent danger of fire or explosion. Who knows, you may cause more damage by doing so but tend to the injured if you could.
    By looking at the photos, airbags would have done nothing to save the driver from such a horrendous crash. What Malaysians such be educated about is the use of seat belts for all passengers and also child car seats. These safety components save lives! Slow down, speed kills.
    The rest of the people shouldn’t be too hard on Kenny about taking photos. These could serve as important evidence for recreation of the accident scene. What if you were in an accident and there were no collaborating evidence you were deemed guilt of the cause?
    Enough said. Bless those departed souls and Kenny I hope that you are not too traumatized by this accident. Seek help if you are.

  372. Seriously, just stop pointing fingers at Kenny. He did nothing wrong and he tried his best to do everything he could. I believe his sole motive was only to remind everyone to drive safely.
    Whatever done is done. Why don’t we just pray for those poor souls who have departed rather than pointing finger at the wrong person.

  373. i think kenny should print screen from other website news’s pic n upload here… just that pic is enuf…..

  374. Kenny,are you really sure that she tries to overtake another car?Because this happens to one of my friend’s family.There’s a total of 3 in the car(consisting of 1 mum,1 pregnant girl and a small little girl).Not trying to be harsh because I heard different stories from both side :\.
    Deepest condolences to their family.

  375. i never knew that you’d write about something like this. usually it’s about your family if it’s concerning heart felt matters. as for this one, i gotta give you some credit. you cared.
    nice to know 😉
    all the more you’re appreciated.

  376. DIU U ALL FLAMERS STFU !!
    GET A LIFE!!
    KEEP ON COMMENT BAD THINGS HERE VERY FUN AH?!
    NTH TO DO AH!!?
    DIU!!

  377. Many of us like to say what could have been done or should have been done but more often than not, unless you’ve been put into the exact same situation, you can by no means really comprehend what one’s going through.
    Emotional trauma is no shit. Be well Kenny:)
    From a purely trained first-aider and some sound background knowledge point of view, yes, so what if you’ve received first aid training, you’re no god. First aiders have very limited help to offer in serious injuries. One of the basic principles of first aid is to identify the situation, analyse and do no harm. If you’re not sure, don’t do it.
    As has been pointed out earlier, with a crash like this, moving the victims is not an ideal thing to do. You could just possibly kill a potential survivor instead of saving one’s life. Certainly, many would see the act of carrying the girl as the most appropriate thing to do, but like what a previous reader commented, the way she’s been carried could easily kill the girl.
    FYI, don’t know how many ppl actually know this but if you happen to come across an emergency at a place thats out of your mobile provider’s coverage, dial 112 and you will be connected to other available network and directed to the local emergency center, even if you’re overseas. So remember it’s not the end of the world if your mobile has no coverage as long as you have your mobile with you..well, GSM mobiles.
    It is perhaps the flaw of the country’s medical system for an ambulance to actually take 45 minutes to arrive, judging by the place reported – i believe you don’t need that amount of time from GH. 45 minutes can take one to Damai already!

  378. daamn.. my deepest condolences..
    you did what you could man.. dont mind what others are saying.. those photos were snapped after offering everything you could.. you were just trying to share what happened to the readers.. by posting it up also creates public awareness.. some people are just pure haters..

  379. hope d gurl will b alrite.if u knoe bout the gurl’s latest condition,plez do update us..in d meantime,can onli pray tht she’s alrite
    as 4 those who couldnt make it in d car accident,may they rest in peace..

  380. airbags are only useful if the passenger cell is well protected, ie not crashed to small bits.. if the lorry’s bumper went right through it, any super canggih airbags wont help…
    trust me,i’m an automotive engineer..

  381. Comment box is for people to comment. You can type whatever you want. I totally agree.
    I saw all the comments and a lot of people asked:
    If one of your family members is in an accident, how will you feel if you saw these pictures of the accident on some random blog?
    My ans: I seriously don’t care where it appears. After all, when it is printed out in the newspaper,reported on tv with videos and images, thousands of people will know. Even age, name, etc. And more importantly, the pain of losing someone is far greater than something as tiny as some photos appearing in a random blog.
    Why is the motorist carrying the girl and Kenny busy snapping photos?
    My ans: I don’t know about Kenny.But I feel gross and scared to carry that girl because, what if she dies in my hands? What if the major cause of her dying is because I moved her? Then I will feel guilty forever. I admit Im a coward. But how many people can be as courageous as the motorist? At least I know all the 20 over onlookers including Kenny are cowards too. And people may say, if you don’t attempt to save her, won’t you feel guilty too? I will feel sad not guilty because at least I know clearly Im not the one who caused her death. The accident caused it and nobody can prevent that. I am not a doctor too. I can’t save her even if I very much want to.
    He snaps photos and put them up is just because he wants to share his traumatic experience with us. I don’t think he will get good money out of it. And so what if his viewership has gone up with so many people bashing him? That is just worthless if he really wants to gain publicity, fame, money etc.
    However, Kenny, I disagree the comment of people who ought to be shameful if they do not donate or call to find out about the situation. Though I feel sad for them, they are not my family or someone I know. I agree that everyday there are accidents happening and it is really not something shameful that we do not do anything to help out. Im sure you do not look at the newspaper everyday just to find out who are the people who got into accidents and then donate to them or pay visits etc.
    And about Kenny publicising that he is very helpful, I just feel that this is triggerd by the negative comments.No intention of publicising or getting an award out of it.
    Just saying how I feel and not intending to say who is right or wrong. It is just a pointless argument because so what if Kenny is disrespectful? or so what if he is a saint? Nothing changes in this world and the fact that all died in that tragic accident.

  382. Condolences to the family.
    I dont blame you kenny, any one of us would be as shock as you if in this kind of situation.

  383. I disagree with those who assume that much controversy has been generated over the photos only because he is kenny sia. In fact, if it wasn’t him posting this entry, i believe the pictures would receive more criticism.
    While kenny has done a good job lending a helping hand the best he knew how, providing too many details about his efforts has made it seem like he is simply fishing for compliments. Sure, if it weren’t for him it could have taken much longer to reach the police, but emphasizing it so greatly is unnecessary.
    Also, who is he to put a label on people who should be ashamed of themselves just because they choose not to pledge a donation? Countless could see the severity of the accident and not donate for their own reasons, why put them down? The most we can do is just appeal for aid, but if turned down we should just be respectful.
    I understand kenny is trying to remind us of the dangers of driving, and he has done so, but the thought of him snapping away while at the scene is just sad. I am aware that the helpless passerbys had nothing to do while waiting for help but taking numerous pictures is just sick.

  384. Hi. i’m so sorry for e ordeal. Speaking of insensitive issue.
    Firstly did u get e message of driving carefully? A picture speak a thousand words, i got the message it hit me right into my heart.
    Secondly, y point finger at others n what make u so superior to judge a person. A theory is always a theory, we are humun afterall. And what is right? A majority in e votes? Then the votes make u wrong.

  385. Some people have no life
    If you think this is wrong and you can do better THEN WHY THE FUCK ARE YOU DOING HERE IN HIS BLOG? No wonder ‘some guy’ ending up driving an ambulance rather than a doctor.

  386. I think most of you should think how to make sure that you yourself didn’t ended up like the victims instead of bashing kenny around right? Seriously, he DID explained about the photos. He took them AFTER he calmed down. Personally, I think he didn’t do anything wrong as he didn’t post the dead bodies pictures. Stamp the accident pictures in your brain cells so that you’ll know what might happened if you drive carelessly.
    Normal human being would be totally shock & don’t know what to do after seeing a freak accident. You guys obvious haven’t seen dead bodies + blood + wracked car before, don’t you? You’ll be traumatized like shit.
    Condolences to the family & may their souls R.I.P.

  387. I dont know why is it so hard to understand.
    If your mum got killed in an accident, you go call Kenny and straight away he will fly to where you lives, snap pictures and blog about it ok? You like it that way?
    He helps out, and thats great. But problem is his rationality eludes me when he helps, stops, snaps, helps, stops, snaps. Even a reporter will subconciously tells you he did it for a paycheck.
    While it is great to help out, there is no denying he did it also for the benefit of himself, his blog. To generate hits, to have potential monetary gains.
    He did it to create a stir. Just like he did it with that christmas post 2 years ago, he puts on a controversy post to attract comments & viewerships. Why else you think LG will advertise their ‘chocolate’ here?
    There is a potential monetary gain if you could attract hundred thousands pair of eyes to your site everyday. In months to come, I wont surprise to see more brands to advertise here.
    Why couldnt he just help out and thats it? What is it in his mind the moment you took out his camera phone from his pocket if not potential monetary gains?
    If Kenny were to post up some lewd jokes and attract tons of comments, and potential monetary gains, that i am ok with it. In fact, those were what brought him fame years back. ANd that is what he should be doing!! But not this one.
    There were over 400 comments posted, and half if not most of the comments were questioning your intention the moment you took out your camera phone. It is an obvious attack.
    I think I will have more respect for Kenny if he apologizes. I will have even more respect for him if he admits the photgraphs he took partly for potential monetary gain.

  388. In context to the fuss of photo taking, the impact of a message will hardly bring about any effect without the photos. If you try to get across the message to a wide audience about the consequence of speeding or anything like that, you use photos, which is one of the best ways to get a message across. Donations don’t go to war torn countries within the effects of the photos, which tell a story far greater than words can convey. Not many people would have understood the emotions Kenny have gone through with just words.

  389. been Kenny’s fan for a long time until this post that i disagree with what he did.
    once a photographer in africa comes across a girl dying in the livelss land with a hawk waiting for its meals. he took a picture of it, chase away the hawk and left the place. he then won a big prize for that picture. but he committed suicide years after – his conscience ate him alive for he didnt help the little girl.
    issues is, his intention of taking those photos.
    for himself? or for mankind?
    sure Kenny did something good, by calling an ambulance and trying to direct traffic. but the photo snapping part still puzzles me – not that you shouldnt. but the fact that you took so many photo in so many GOOD angles? Kenny, if you are a reporter i would say you are a good reporter. and yes police dont need that photo from you. not that many anyway.
    fact that nothing else you could do (as you have done all you could) doesnt means you could go around and snap photos.
    if there is just a photo or two, then Kenny you still have my support. but when there is too many (with DAMN GOOD ANGLE i must admit), i am speechless.
    and your defensive come back just made you look worse – “i am already a hero by doing so much. you nameless people probably cant do as much”. yeah we might be able to do only a thing or two. but we wont take so many pictures to show people around.
    call me a chicken as you like. i am ashamed by you.

  390. The photographer in Africa carried the girl to a shelter after the photo-taking incident. However, without that one photo, not many of us could have truly understood what was happening in that country. If that photographer stayed on to become a volunteer there selflessly, he would still have been considered a greater person, but then he would one of the many who already made contributions and disappears quietly when he dies. One person can only do so much, but it is a totally different matter when you brought the world to your attention with what was posted. People sat up and took notice, and the situation was immediately understood.
    In terms of photo-taking, you would tend to capture better images faster within a shorter period of time when you have prior experience in that field. Kenny has a wide-readership, it is improbable that he did not take the photo partly out of self-interest. However, what is important in this message is that it did captured the attention of a wide audience, and it told the story.

  391. At this point in time, i tink everyone, whether positive or negative, are either repeating the same thing in different ways or bashing at at each other.
    Maybe it’s time to stop.
    I do not agree with this blog and the pictures but it’s obvious that kenny sia will not be deleting this post as it is bringing in so many viewers.
    It’s a weekend , go out and have fun and forget about kenny sia.

  392. HELLO PEOPLEEEEEEE.. wakeee upp!
    There are many people dying from many wars and they include children and women. They die from no fault of their own and yet we switch channels when we see them on the news….
    HEREEEEE…. the mom practically killed herself (and her kids).. plus she is really careless to overtake in a one lane each, two way road….
    sooo yeah, some of you saw this first hand so wooo hoo it made u relate to it but please remember, there are people dying as we speak in ways worse than this, its just that it has become old news for us and we became terribly insensitive….
    whatever it is, im not going to pretend im self-righteous or that i feel so sad blah blah because i am not a hypocrite and i feel that my sadness could be directed to other issues the world is facing, not just another car accident.

  393. When i first saw your entry, i also thought, WTH man, still got time to take foto! Why never go and help!
    And it does seem a little contrived to say it is all in the good of the victims.
    Until i read all your comments.
    It must have been traumatising to realise how immacutely linked life and death is.
    And these photos do serve to remind us that.
    However, i still don’t agree with the photos. At least not a whole film reel of them.
    Much blessings and prayers.

  394. Its normal for a normal 1st aider to be in shock when it comes to situation like this. However, it is very advisable not to carry the victim as we do not know whether he/she has internal injuries or spinal cord injury which may paralyse her.But if he/she is able to walk with abit of help, you may send him/her to the nearest clinic or hospital with own vehicle. If you do know the correct way of carrying and confident, good, go ahead. But if you are not, do not make situation worse. Please correct me if I am wrong.Its my 1st aid knowledge that i have gained after attending few courses for the past 5 years. Just wana share:)

  395. hey kenny,
    if, like you say, you really care bout the victims in the accidents, then obviously you’d TAKE DOWN THE FUCKING PICTURES by now.
    seeing as how they’re still up there i can only guess that:
    i) you actually don’t care bout the victims
    ii) you like the blog traffic
    iii) you get some twisted pleasure in watchin ppl arguin on ur blog
    iv) you’re a dick
    (…yeah just added the last one for fun)

  396. wow. that’s a lot of comments.
    first of, it was really tragic to hear of such news. i can actually relate to that as my friends were involved in a highway accident not too long ago too. the feeling of not being able to do anything when clearly your friend- who’s lying unconcious in the ICU ward- needs you. the feeling is just plain ridiculous…and real. and painful.
    my condolneces to the family of this accident’s victims, as well as to the many others who falls prey to the road stats.
    now that i’ve gotten that out, i would like to return my attention to the fact that this post has garnered so many comments.
    whether he intended it as such (which i personally, sincerely doubt it), kenny is currently recently lots of publicity over this issue, the good and the bad.
    and all you self-righteous people out there, slapping kenny with accusations of such and such…don’t you see…you are the ones helping him achieve his goals (let’s assume for now that all kenny wants is fame and world domination). YOU are the one making such public outcry, over and over again. you are contradicting your own stand.
    however, did kenny break any rules in doing so?
    it is, afterall, his blog.
    he can be a really bad and nasty piece of $hit, or an angel under guise…but this is his blog, where he’s entitled to his thoughts and actions (as restricted by the rules/law/act/etc). if you don’t like him, you are also entitled to voice your own thoughts, and perhaps never to visit this blog again?
    i don’t know, but i think everyone’s blowing this whole thing out of proportion.
    but i don’t think kenny did anything wrong.
    perhaps he was desperate for more hits. nothing wrong there. he didn’t exactly drive that truck that crashed into the car. he was there to help.
    perhaps he was insensitive and a natural b*tch.
    but he stopped. he did all he could. he phoned the ambulance. he helped direct traffic. yeah, i guess you could say he was nasty for not going back to office early to work. -_-”
    perhaps he was just trying to relate to us the emotions he was feeling then, and how best to do it, but use pictures.
    he did nothing wrong there either.

  397. You’re seriously sick. You took photographs?
    Don’t use that BS line that it could be used for “police evidence”. What more do the police need than seeing what they have before them?
    What if her family reads this? They will see the awful photos of her crash, and they will also know she did it.
    Words can’t describe how DISGUSTING you are. You are shameless. Exploiting the DEATH of someone else to get hits on your pathetic website.

  398. 1. Kennysia made a simple mistakes by taking photo. -END-
    2. You guys who criticised kennysia is kiasu people with too much free time. Go do something meaningful please and fuck off. -END-
    3. To all the ball lickers and people who support kennysia…. You guys are so pathetic(bodek kuat) Go fuck yourself also. -END-
    4. Oh my god…with all our visit and hit/second to kennysia webpage he’s probably claming more from the hit count from internet provider. So please stop it already. You guys actually giving him advantages. -END-
    P/S: And i better go fuck myself now.
    Just my 2 cents becoz i don’t have any common sense or 6th sense.

  399. Me again.
    On the fifth photo, you can see little legs peeking out. If it wasn’t for that one I would have assumed the best and that you had the decency to wait until all the bodies were taken away before you started taking photos.
    You have no respect for this family Kenny.
    A simple blog explaining the situation, and perhaps a photo of the glass on the ground and link to the newspaper story will be enough.
    I will contact the hospital but not just to send my condolences, but to let them know that a cold hearted blogger has put photos of the crash up on his site. Including one of their dead child.
    Don’t pretend to be a hero begging for people’s help because that one photo of the little child’s legs shows enough about your cold soul to know that you don’t really care.
    You seriously make me sick.

  400. kenny don’t let me see you on kch streets, gerenti i pui at you! PUI! useless fame hogger!

  401. First time commenting here..though am avid Kennysia.com reader. I think that a blog is to jot down personal accounts..you write what you see…you put images of it so it may remind you over and over again that fateful day of what you have seen. Kenny is doing what he had been doing for the past 2-3 years since he start this blog.. He blogged…he put images together with it so his reader can somehow relate or get a better sense of what he wished to convey. Somehow, i think it is already cultured in his nature or instinct that gives him tendency to snap away those photos given that certain situation./event. I do believe that he do wish to let this incident (accident) known to as much people as possible..but not for personal gain.. but to somehow bring sense to other people to help the girl who is in critical danger. I imagined him traumatised from the event..and feeling hopeless and i think he would have wished he could have done more…thus…it was his intention to make up for the thing, he blog it here so people would be aware and could actually lend a hand..
    So, instead of critisizing him.. I think we should thanked him for this awareness and focus on helping the girl…
    Think of it..if it wasn’t for Kenny..i doubt half or even 80% of who have commented good or bad would know about this accident..
    So give the bashing a rest aights..be supportive.. no good comes from constant hatred…
    The bible say.. Love your family, friends and neighbours…and better yet..love your enemy as well..
    May the Victims rest in peace..and Peace to all!

    Excuse me, simple mistake??? Do u even read all the previous post?
    Why don’t u go fuck off yourself. Stop using profanities. We are not criticizing, we are stating a fact and a problem with his ethical photojournalism.
    Please also make it clear that what is your stand on this. Don’t sit on the fence and shout at both side to fuck off, you may fall down and impale your balls.

  403. The fact that all the photo is still here proves that Kenny is enjoying the publicity of everyone who commented. He has achieved his goal, winning all the popularity he wanted by taking all the shots at the accident.All 9 of them.
    One more thing, the little girl survived. Read Sat paper (chinese). Another good attempt to stir up more publicity of this blog. Successful-very, brilliant-absolutely, felling sorry-dont think so.

  404. Kenny you sold your soul for popularity! Porky pig! Let’s see you coming out of all these pig shit you created! I used to thought you were funny and dorky, now you are just disgusting and a loser! attention seeker! screw you!

  405. EEH SHADDAP LA U ALL!
    ALL BASKETS!
    SO CLEVER GO SCOLD ALL THE JOURNALIST N PHOTOGRAPHERS FOR THE NEWSPAPERS LA!
    WHAT ABOUT VIDEOS AND CLIPS OF ACCIDENTS N DEATHS AIRED IN THE BERITA ON TV? ISNT THT WORSE?
    GO SCOLD THEM AS WELL!
    IS THERE ANY FUCKIN MISTAKE THT KENNY DID TAKING PICTURES?
    IS THERE?
    THERE ISNT… HE DID NOT DID ANYTHING WRONG
    SO SHUT THE HELL UP

  406. Of course he mentioned the girl passed away, he wanted huge traffic but it got out of hand and the balless coward don’t know how to end all these so he just use his fucked up mind to say everything has ended so he don’t have to explain himself anymore… a friend is the family friend, might as well say friend friend friend punya emak ipar punya friend la dickhead!

  407. hey guys don’t keep scolding and forgot the true purpose of this blog and its hidden message that you all should know…..
    SAMSUNG X820 has the CLEAREST camera of all the other phones in its category, come with ultra zoom, anti-shake that even brand like Sony can’t develop, vibrant colours and High-Definition clarity. Please take not of all that. Thank you.

  408. Whatever the case, I feel this shouldn’t have been made into a blog entry. Please give some thought to removing it..or at least the pictures of the victims.
    I’m sure their family members wouldn’t want the world to see them like that.

  409. thespian: “What’s wrong about this is that you’re posting pictures of dead people on the road, in an accident and claiming you’re sorry.” For one thing, Kenny Sia did NOT take pictures of dead people. And taking photos of the scene of accident does not mean he does not feel sorry for the casualties.
    For another, he “offered to help by calling the emergency number.” This is the safest, and the best, thing he could have done to help. When kenny said “he did not know what to do”, he probably meant that he did not know how to go about giving actual help to the victims since he is not a trained medic.
    By taking photos, he is portraying the severity of the accident for us to witness. He is also conveying to us the emotions he felt then, through pictures.
    To Kenny’s critics, you’re doing a great job in helping Kenny boost his publicity even more by creating such a fuss. In that case, he will have to thank you for helping him achieve his “aim” then.

  410. gruesome accident indeed. and totally heart felt. taking the photos for the police is a good deed but posting them up do not support the fact. it is dreadful to see a kid lying dead inside the car. plz if u wanna help dont put up those dreadful pics. u could at least called up the hospital and asked for the kid’s condition instead of reading it from d papers if u reli cared.

  411. I have read enough of all these comments (indeed I never finished reading all of them) cause the arguments just go round and round. I think most people MISSED a very important point arguing whether Kenny should post the photo or not. He has the right to put up the photos but the victims or the victims’ family member has the higher priority in the ‘rights order’. Hence, what Kenny should have done in the first place is to ask for permission from the victim’s family. He shouldn’t have put up this entry so soon.
    But then again, i can understand this is the first major accident that happened right in front of him, he probably still traumatized by it. Hence, it is natural to blog about it.

  412. hehe you want x820 come to my shop at Hot Shot mobile near Kch Waterfront… i count you cheaper, i stock up alot x820 adi so i sell more quantities ma can cheaper lo… lai lai ok!

  413. aih,what the fuck wrong with ur all lar…go read his reasons first before commenting on his action…this is what wrong with the community…judging when you dont even know the full story…this type of people can jump from building…u think his wat? superman? spiderman? no emotion? I really want to SEE WHAT YOU could do when you are in his position.Balless cowards.Btw,cheer up. This type of people doesnt worth your time.
    God bless.

  414. ya kenny quit your so called day job and instead of go travelling here and there camwhoring go look for accidents la! come to peninsula North South Highway patrol everyday let you take pictures until song song! bring your pda ur phone ur dslr ur sony t9 or wadever and shoot until your fingers also numb. and when you done, might as well go to Nirvana take summore pictures of the dead and don left our the other religion ok! Sicko…

  415. Fact: it is only normal to help call for help, anyone could’ve done that! I can’t believe the many ppl who are praising him like he did something real heroic. read the post again. the guy only did two things: call n take pics, all over the place. i would’ve called, but to take pics of something of this nature would be beyond my conscience.
    Fact: Kenny feels guilty taking those pictures b/c he says “sorry” and its not sorry they died, its an overall sorry , incl. his taking of the pics.
    Fact: one pic tells a thousand words; so many pics tells us he did it to get a reaction. he knows he’s wrong but he can’t resist the publicity and gain he’s getting!

  416. “hehe you want x820 come to my shop at Hot Shot mobile near Kch Waterfront… i count you cheaper, i stock up alot x820 adi so i sell more quantities ma can cheaper lo… lai lai ok!” commented by I paid kenny alot for all these promo
    Shame on you! You show no sympathise and care at all about the tragic accident like personal attackers, and yet promo on Samsung for your selfish-making money-for-your-own-life. Now, people will be bashing you at Hot Shot mobile nearby Waterfront.
    I just read it in chinese newspaper this early morning. My condolences to the family of victims. May the victims rest in peace.

  417. Yasushi no brain ah.
    Icantbelievethis:FACT:If Kenny is really sorry, he can still delete the pics.
    FACT:If Kenny is still greedy for money, he won’t remove the pics but will say sorry to con stupid people like you.

  418. firstly, there’s nothing kenny could’ve done but call the emergency number. cos ONE, you must never never move a victim of a car accident or anything cos you might injure them like break their neck or something. i’m 15 and i know that.
    and kenny taking photos. i don’t find it insensitive. how bout those photographers who take photos at accident scenes ALL THE TIME. your not gonna call them insensitive, are you? why think of the negative effects when we can look at the positive? like kenny could be telling us to be more careful on the roads. why do we people always look at the bad side first? think about it.

  419. Yasushi is the stupidest commenter bar none WAHAHAHa what the fuck…can’t even catch the sacrasm and start blasting people like no tommorrow… this comment box is full of idiots like you who has no sense of humour or sacrasm and i like it! to know that there are people more stupid then i am,

  420. apa lah: r u confused? your 1st fact is against Ken, your 2nd is for him…pls, don’t ever be a lawyer!

  421. I agree with HEE. Go read his entry. At least it isn’t openly Kenny-bashing. But I still think that the photos of the victims should be removed.

  422. sandra: yes, you shouldn’t move the victims unless you are sure they don’t have broken bones. This is very true and applicable in places like the US where their ambulance will always arrive within minutes. But for OUR case, sometimes it is not a bad idea at all to move the victim if we have concluded that’s the best action to take. The victim is unconscious and the ambulance is not coming. I would carry the victim to the hospital myself if I know I can get there faster. There is no protocol (there never is!) in Malaysia what we (public) should do in case of emergency, especially during car accident. Minor or major. Just ask around, you will be amazed at all kind of answers you get!

  423. YOU’RE A DIVER NOW
    take up Rescue diver course. although you might not be able to help all the time, but is good you can help sometimes. and is all that matters. let this incident be your strength 🙂
    cheers

  424. wah.. not sian 1 a u all. arguments just go round n round non stop.
    before i left this website yesterday, there are only 190+ comment. bt now there is alr 526+ comments leh!
    seems like there is a lot of ppl out there gt nothing better to do
    -_-”

  425. Kenny you this sunday still going segi college to promote yourself? can i go there throw eggs at you a? so like to be famous and attract all the attention ho! basking on all the publicity ho! best la u hehe…

  426. there was nothing you could’ve done kenny…so keep your head up..at least you tried to help..everyone would’ve been dumbstruck in situations like these..
    dont blame yourself for something that’s not your fault

  427. funny ah with all these kennysian. he blogs watever he wants la. get a life la u ppl. if u dont like. get lost la. dont read kennysia.com anymore. shessshh..lame lame lame…kiddish!

  428. Im so sad to hear about the news. deepest condolence to the victim’s family.
    Hey, you people out there. Do remember this is Kenny’s blog. He just blog out what he witnessed and his feeling. You people want to read it then read it. Don’t comment on nonsense. The whole comment column become a bullshit. If you people are at that situation, I bet you’ll only slow down your car and watch what had happened and you people make the whole road jammed. did you people came out at once to give a hand? and you people keep on criticise people’s blog. Did Kenny posted out the victims’ photo? I didn’t see any inside the blog. So what the hell you people keep on boombarding his blog?

  429. I saw the story on The Star newspaper yesterday.
    I find it similiar to de one written here…
    Anyhow, i felt sorry to those who couldnt survive.
    Deepest Condolences to the their family. May God bless the soul n the survived girl.

  430. the pictures taken by kenny is not gruesome, yet why he want to take so many from different angles, its like you eat never eat until full still leave half empty stomach, want to go penang but stopped at ipoh….
    The weak heart people will think too gruesome and over, but the hardcore audience are not satisfied, kenny you are a really balless coward…. like kids want to skip school but scare mama beat so end up skip class oni…

  431. Kenny,
    This post & especially the photos of the accident has brought about negative reactions & comments from a lot of peolple.
    Obviously it was a mistake to put it up esp the pics. My advice is to take the pics off your blog. Put pride aside. mistakes are made by everyone. People will respect you more if you do that.
    Cheers.

  432. Bless you Kenny, you did the right thing and if it was not for you, all of us would not know about this let alone the Police and the Emergency team.
    You are very brave. I have gone thru one similar to this and was still shivering even after six months!
    To the rest: Please understand this as it IS very traumatic to see all those fresh injuries and death.
    Kenny, pls keep up the good work. You did the right thing.

  433. I’m glad that these pictures were put up. I hope that it reminds us all to stick to the speed limit, keep a safe distance with the car in front of you, buckle up (yes… even sitting in the back seat), don’t let your kids treat the car as a playground and not get distracted or angry while behind the wheel of a vehicle.
    I live along that road (Jalan Batu Kawa-Matang). I see too many people doing all of the above everyday and paying for it with their lives or the lives of others. I too was there-but later. Everyone was distraught-including the cops, firefighters and civil defence medics. I think you get that when kids are involved.
    It’s not hard to understand why the police considers the car as a ‘deadly weapon’. ’nuff said. Drive safe.

  434. first of all, this is the first time i’m commenting here, though an avid follower of kennysia.com for the last few years.
    i never thought of having a say in this blog until this post.
    above all, condolences to the victims’ family, i’m sure this is a very testing time for them, and god pray i only hope they can bury this tragedy deep down in a corner of their mind.
    secondly, i thought kenny did everything he could to assist, that is enough. i don’t think many people can boast to have given his best to help in a horrific accident. kenny’s done well.
    lastly, despite all these i don’t think i’ll be reading this blog anymore. the photos to be honest, is somewhat tasteless and although i don’t condemn kenny for taking a few shots for police evidence or blogging purposes, whatever reasons, i sure do not wish to one day find out that my beloved ones are involved in an accident by seeing the photos posted here.
    that, will kill what’s left in my heart.
    all the best, kenny, you’re a great blogger, with just one less reader from today onwards.

  435. Hi Kenny,
    First and foremost condolences to the family. Second, may u be strong and get over this whole saga.
    I have been a avid reader of your blog. Both for entertainment and interest.
    Personally, I feel that while there could be nothing wrong taking photos, the words used to form your argument may have given the likes of those who are bashing you and kennysia.com, a very wrong impression. As the saying goes, the more you try to explain, the more complicated it gets. Which is generally true because pple who are already not happy, will pick and find everything that is not right to form a basis of argument to their advantage. There is always something to argue about in an explaination.
    Jornalist over blogger. Job versus “not everyday incident”. It is the job of a jornalist to photograph an incident he afterall is paid to do so. But maybe not so for a blogger. 1 or 2 photos to publish and document the incident may have been more than enough. Even in the newspapers, probably, i feel, they might not have had that many pictures used. Probably 1 or 2 which leaves the most impressions.
    Nevertheless, given the circumstances you were in, you most probably have done more than most would have. Its upsetting to know that its difficult making people understand your point of view, but at the same time, do not degrade yourself to the likes of them but try to show more understanding to those who do not realise by putting yourself in their perspective as well.
    There really isnt a wrong or right. Just a matter who which is of more priority. If unfortunately I was a close family member of the unfortunate incident, I would be pretty upset about whatever is written or shown in your blog. Similarly, I believe that you would be too. There might have been a better and more tactful way to do it.
    Cheer up. Over this whole incident, everyone has much to learn. Not only trying to understand each others perspectives, the sensitivity of words, the need for explaination, the need to know when to stop critizing, the priorities, the open-mindedness, the art of forgiveness and compassion.

  436. Fuck You! Take these photos off! How would you feel if someone close to you is involve in some fatal accident while I run around the scene taking their bloody photos and post it on my blog…
    You bloody bastard…

  437. Hey chill duncan, rest assure if any accidents that would happen to kenny’s close ones he will be the first to go there and snap 10+ photos from every angles to fullfill his citizen journalism ethics ro whatever shits he saying so cheers!

  438. 546th comment here..
    生命是一个过程。可悲的是它不能够重来,可喜的是它不需要重来。
    treasure life k…

  439. First, my condolences and prayers to the deceased.
    ————————————————-
    Give peasants technology, and they will use it like peasants.
    Malaysian’s can’t keep to topic. This was a post about a very tragic accident, and what has the comments section become? A full fledged debate by people who think they have a moral high ground.
    I’m addressing to all those who want Kenny Sia to take this blog post down: come out with your REAL full name, your contact details, and debate like a civilised person, instead of being a person who only knows how to show ignoble fear, and hiding behind pseudonyms, which only show your lack of education and morals.
    ————————————————–
    Talk is cheap when you don’t know the weight of your words.

  440. For godsake,can u all pls leave Kenny and the Photo issue alone?If u guys don’t agree or like what he’s doing,don’t read his blog then.No one’s pointing a gun to yr head and forcing u guys to read his blog.It’s yr own choice.It’s was his decision to take the photos and it’s got nothing to do with self-promotion.Pls-lah people…don’t judge him until he’s worth less than 2 cent.He’s just a normal human being going about doing his own thing.And pls don’t use the F word.It’s very rude.To Kenny,thank you for sharing this with us.To the rest,drive safely.

  441. If you say so, Timothy.
    My name is Jonathan Au, and I live in Subang. I say take the photos off the blog, and get the old kennysia back.

  442. Haiz… ppl, juz think, think, think!!! Think, if u were him at that time, wat u will do. Stop for awhile, stop wat u wan to write in the comment n juz need to think, think…. think wat u will do, n wat u actual WILL do. Juz imagine u in the situation seeing a person not moving n got blood all over the victim, WHAT WILL U DO? i m sorry for the victims..
    kennysia.com is a place where kenny share wat he think, feel, happy thing, sad thing.. or anything. So… this is wat he thinking, wat u care about??

  443. I don’t think there’s a need fro Kenny to remove the pictures, this will serve as a public message to every Malaysian out there, even better than those simulations that was advertised on TV and radios because people tend to ignore it as everyone think those are just made up. For this one, this is for real, therefore it will act as a realistic public message to everyone out there who drive recklessly. Think of your innocent child and others as well.
    No point arguing whether should Kenny take pics anot during the accident …

  444. kenny’s enjoyin the comments.
    two points:
    samsung’s crap. go nokia.
    taib, aka, the “pek mo,” will not exploit sarawakians any longer. he will feel justice, if we are to have any hope in our judicial system.

  445. Why are people keep telling Kenny to take down the photos and say that the victim’s family will feel disrespectful when you all are not even the victim’s family?
    Half of you here do not feel disrespectful with the putting of pictures and what makes you guys so sure how the victim’s family feels?
    If you guys are really so keen in knowing how the victim’s family feels, go and do an interview with them to find out exactly how they feel and post your interview up here for us to know.
    Let us just stop assuming how the victim’s family feels when we do not even know them ourselves.

  446. For those of u who simply wrote comments w/out reading Kenny’s comment & still asked the stupidest question / statemt of Y he took pics / he should help instead of take pics / he should take down pics / he did tat to gain popularity, u guys/gals just showed that u all are the mos ignorant bunch of jokers. Tot u guys/gals are saint ah, bashing ppl w/out knowing the facts? U all are the real jerks. I truely feel sad for u all.

  447. those who have been commenting nasty stuff….u have no right 2 do so.
    What would u have done in a similar situation?
    Probably worse!
    Stop talking cock n behaving as though kenny is a criminal who deserves 2 be put in azkaban! Its clear he did the best he could…nothing much could be done anyway. And y cant he post pics? Nvr read newspapers b4, u people??
    Msian mentalities! Bah! Always making so much noise like chicken backside whenever there’s a ‘hot issue’. Jz talk & talk without thinking rationally but wont lift a finger 2 do anything. I tell u…most people would have stopped 2 watch ‘free show’ instead of actually DOING something 2 help….tats how most people behave here.
    Dont believe me? Feel like shooting me too now? Well…go ahead & try u delusional morons! Live in denial! Watever makes u happy.
    Learn from this & drive safe, people. Be more responsible please!

  448. i suppose there’s no harm in the ACT of taking the pictures themselves, but maybe some of the pictures ARE a bit too detailed and doesn’t serve to tell people anything at all.
    I don’t suppose you would need to show the picture of the man carrying the girl off or the close up picture of the car with a kid’s legs showing, or the picture of the ambulance at all.
    Because it does sort of give the impression that you’re trying to ‘spice up’ the story.
    That’s just my opinion.
    However, it was good that you did what you did, cos its much more than what an average malaysian would do in the same circumstance. I totally understand what you mean by not knowing what to do with just basic first aid, and traumatic events affect different people differently.
    My condolences to the family of the victims.

  449. I hav read all the comments & it seems that a lot of them were written by ppl who are either jeolous of Kenny or think they are the real hero by making destructive criticism of him. Wat a perfect opportunity for these ppl to hav a go at him with this entry.
    Ppl can write watever they wan, as long as Kenny thought he has done his best to help the victims, then nothing else matters – no need to defend, no need to explain.
    Lets us pray that the little girl can hv a speedy recovery.
    And Kenny, thanks for the photos that has resulted in many more prayers for the little girls from readers that may not know the tragic news.

  450. Whoever thinks those photos are too ‘detailed’ are being too…over-sensitive. There r worse details being shown on television & newspapers….how come nobody makes so much noise about it?? Hypocrites! Nvr watch documentaries b4? Korean dramas taking too much space filling ur brain up with…well…dramas??
    Gosh! Watever happened to open-minded people?? Those photos have obviously been taken in the best way he could, to show proof of the accident, while keeping in mind to be respectful by not revealing gory details & identities of the victims!
    These photos have been posted up to give an account of the accident as best as he could…to educate us on the dangers of driving carelessly. Why cant evry1 learn from it & stop pretending to be so full of moral?
    If u are really concerned…FIRST thing that comes to mind would be how the family is doing, the condition of the surviving girl….rather than “OMG F*** KENNYSIA! I MUST CRITICISE HIM NOW!”. Then go back to your respective businesses prior to reading this blog and completely forgetting to stop & think about the feelings of the victims & their family.
    Many…many comments posted here have made me feel sad and ashamed.. That people are more interested in pointing fingers rather than truly caring about the victims..

  451. well l guess writing a blog is more like a self diary and l dont think u had any mistake of taking photos on it. At least you tried to help but sometimes it can be too shocked. No worries abt pple who wanna judge you cos this is ur Blog and at least we learn something if we see something happen like that.

  452. sorry to the family..
    you guys, kenny can easily get people to read and visit his website with a simple review of a kopitiam or chicken rice somewhere in kuching. He has talent in writing.
    Do you really think that he need to take pictures of some accident to gain publicity?? What will he get out of a post of an accident? advertisements of airbags?? advertisement from JPJ?? C’mon la u guys get a life..

  453. i know most of us couldnt have done anything for the families involved anyway. And no one is expecting monetary contributions from us. But at least….offer a sincere prayer to the victims & their families.

  454. whats wrong with taking photos? u guys need to take a chill pill.. if it wasnt for this post i wudnt even know about this incident. hope everything works out…

  455. ah ming ah ming it just a picture why so big deal about taking that picture,kenny just want to share that with us, if u dont want to read u can always blind your eye ,maybe kenny can blog about you.

  456. guys, just shut the fuck up
    we mourn for the victims, the girl’s fine(i think), end of story
    fuck 500+ comments with retards thinking people actually would bother to read what they have to say
    Just, shut the fuck up

  457. Kenny,
    You might want to consider removing/censoring all or parts of comments that have nothing to do with your article, especially those that criticise the photos and impose their moral/ethical believes.
    This would prevent immature people from flaming each other and perpetuating this argument.

  458. Agh..for people who ask you to put down ur entry due to deprivation of morality, and ironically stated that morality is a highly subjective issue, yet he was ‘demanding’ for it- this merely shows that his sense of subjectiveness is screwed. And who is he to transgress your constitutional right?!

  459. The driver is younger than you Kenny, the kids was safe but unfortunately her another two sisters were died. Their grandmother and the driver also died. I knew. This news advising us be careful when driving, don’t not overtake people if we are not rush for time.

  460. I have made an observation.
    People who criticize Kenny in this post generally seem to be more eloquent and have a better command of the English language. They seem more assertive too.
    Kenny replies: I have also made an observation. People who criticize me in this post generally do not leave their e-mail addresses and seems to hide behind different nicknames whilst using the same IP Address for the sole purpose of creating an illusion that a lot of people are criticizing me than there actually are.

  461. To Crimson Blaze:
    What are u talking about?! ‘Journalists and phothographers for the newspapers’ DO get criticized for things they include in their articles, i.e. Yellow Journalism, which is a pejorative reference to journalism that features sensationalism, jingoism or other unethical or unprofessional practices by news media organizations or individual journalists.
    I say please understand what you are saying before you post.
    Kenny isn’t a journalist but being one of the top bloggers in Malaysia and having SUCH A HUGE VIEWERSHIP, this is clearly unethical and it seems like a highly sensationalized post.
    It’s good you called the ambulance, but sorry Kenny, I could’ve tolerated this post until I got to the photo where the girl’s legs could be seen. You went overboard on that one.
    But then again, look at how many comments you are getting! No wonder you HAD to put those photos up! : )

  462. hey ah Foo aka Kennysia! now u know what malaysians love-blood, gore, death…man, u’ve struck gold!and to those who question who we are to judge or criticize dear tze foo, we have the right because he’s made it a public blog. Honestly ah Foo(l), you disgust me.

  463. if you have the skills to help den help out.. but if not.. don’t ever do that.. cause you might the cause of the person’s death and might get sued..
    its quite terrifying to witness an accident in front of you.. especially with the car smashed into half..
    @everyone
    it’s not about taking picture etc..
    it’s about learning from the accident
    drive safe..

  464. Hey wen thank you. I’m against the pics and my English is def better than those conscience-lacking idoits who never took English 101, like Kenny boy who writes Manglish and that’s why he’s so popular in Malaysia!

  465. Sigh…how come u all criticise kenny? This is his space and he can do whatever he wants!
    Like me…If i encountered a car accident, I would take my cam out and take more pics for my blog…500+ comments what, who don’t want!?
    I want readers too!!!

  466. ‘And if there is anything at all that I can do to help, financial or otherwise, please let me know.’
    take the pics off.

  467. ‘There r worse details being shown on television & newspapers….how come nobody makes so much noise about it?? Hypocrites!’
    LOL…I certainly have seen a friend call Daily Express before! Do NOT generalise!!!

  468. Dear Kenny, let me present you with the lessons I have learnt about this post thus far…
    Lesson #1: I should remember to not put up disrespectful photos. It is offensive and insensitive.
    Lesson #2: Oh but what, I should put up more sensationalised pictures. I am getting so many readers! 586 comments to date, FAR OUT!

  469. I dont suppose you should have uploaded tHAT many pics of the scene. I think thats whats upsetting so many peeps. I myself found it a bit disturbing. Yes, you had the time to take many pics but I dont think you needed to upload that many up do you kennies? 🙂

  470. Turns out the initial information I have received about the little girl in hospital having passed is incorrect.
    Just a few minutes ago, one of the medical staff from Sarawak General Hospital sent me an email. The girl is in ICU but is in stable condition.
    Thank God.
    On a different note, Saturday’s edition of Sin Chew Jit Poh dedicated not one blog entry, but FIVE FULL PAGES of the newspaper to this car accident, including the front page headline which features workers cutting through the wreckage and the picture of a dead body covered in newspapers with some flesh sticking out. The front page headlines also feature the full names and photos of all the victims in the car accident.
    Refer to:
    http://www.sinchew.com.my/content.phtml?sec=203&artid=200705181738
    http://www.sinchew.com.my/content.phtml?sec=203&artid=200705181592
    http://www.sinchew.com.my/content.phtml?sec=203&artid=200705181591
    http://www.sinchew.com.my/content.phtml?sec=203&artid=200705181590
    The web edition does not have photos, but the newspapers have at least 10 photos of the wreckage, the victim’s family, the wake and mourning.
    Is it offensive? I would think so because they are using this tragic story to sell their newspapers.
    You talk about ‘respect’ but I still do not understand why people have such double standards when it comes to newspapers and my blog.
    I have one blog entry about my first-hand account of the accident. The newspaper have FIVE full pages.

  471. Its very much interesting to observe and read all the comments… everyone have to agree ait now, A picture means a thousand words…
    To Kenny.
    I am not a fan of you but i really like your blog that suits the ‘Generation C’ era.
    Kudos and congratulations to Kenny, one lucky bastard to be there and the right location and exactly at the right time.Not forgetting that you manage to take hips of pics.. And i wonder whether do you have any close ups. For doing all that and no one actually stops you or your camera got bashed up.That was lucky of you.
    I am actually a photography enthusiast that love taking pictures that involved spontaneous incidents such as what you encountered. I have thousands of pictures that describes death and near death experience. It is all my personal collection merely but on a few occasion my picture was actually being used by the media,insurance company and other related parties thats interested in my pictures.
    What I’m gonna share is not to defend Kenny on his ability taking pictures during inappropriate times, but to share with everyone how important it is this kind of picture in educating them for not making the same mistake…
    I used to follow a friend of mine that is a volunteer paramedic.. my favourite time is actually the first weekend after the payroll day..
    This is where most of the REMPITS would come out and enjoy themselves . I have seen countless horryfying dead bodies infront of me…
    Around 3-4am, on this particular weekend, do drop by at the EMERGENCY section at any big hospitals around your city.. my personal favourite GH KL or PPUM.Hips of rempits waiting for their injured,near dead and deceased buddies. I’ll just hang out by the big door with my camera and this guys would approach me asking whether I’m a reporter or such a thing. The next thing I would just show my pictures that I’ve been taken all night long..
    Why I’m doing this is basically to educate the REMPITS for valuing their life… That is my sole reason. Call me sick or crazy, i’m cool with that… A man have to do what a man believe that can change the world.Coz 10 years ago I saw a couple of pictures during “Kempen Keselamatan Jalan Raya ” an exhnition to create awareness to primary and secondary kids about road safety..
    I still remembered exactly how that particular picture of a man being cut into countless pieces of meat with eyeballs popping out. It was a big traumatic picture that change my life forever.
    Keep up the good work mate.. although I have to agree that posting the picture was a bit un-ethical.. but hell it works..
    look at all the feedback you’re getting…
    Stay focus on your intention…
    Shit happens man… admit it.. move on…
    Life is not abt a routine act that happens every morning when you open up your eyes. Shit happens and life is about handling the shit. That makes you what you are…
    Cheers

  472. all this while we read kennysia.com coz he has done so much things that we couldnt do and bring us so much laughter…
    suddenly this blog reminded us, “hey, he is still a human (and, a fairly young man, remember that?), and he does make mistake.” though it takes greater courage to admit one’s mistake.
    he may not understand what he has done wrong for now. but in the future, i am sure a smart person like him would realize it.
    dont you, kenny?
    i am sure you have learned something from this blog.

  473. Dude. Simplest thing to do is to remember not to take photos next time coz some people think it’s insensitive…..
    Don’t you think it’s so much better than for strangers to start calling you an inconsiderate fat pig?

  474. a bit of historical facts for you nice lot. the photographer taking the photo of the starving sudanese girl, his name is kevin carter. you can wiki it up. he did not help the girl, for fear of getting diseased. he won the pulitzer prize later for the photo. and later on, he commited suicide. you can find out why yourself.
    for kenny, you’ve read all the comments. you know how some people feel, how some others feel. i don’t know how you feel, i can’t emphatize with you since i do not share your code of morals. just want you to know that even if you are just a blogger, remember that you do have a social and public responsibility in your postings one way or another.
    my own opinion is that i feel the photos are too sensationalist. one would have been sufficient, to drive whatever message you wanted across. but this? what purpose did you want to serve? i don’t know, i just don’t like what i see.
    you can read the story of kevin carter, it does bear some relevence to what i’m trying to say to you. at the end of the day, everybody sins. it’s just a question, of how much sin you can live with?

  475. somehow if it were me, instead of standing there doing nothing for 30min since there’s really nothing can be done, i would have taken pictures too. sorry if you would think that i am insensitive, but in newspaper, we will not possibly see the whole damaged – look at the picture in the link. That is where the car has been pulled from the truck. Kenny’s pic showed how badly the car was stuck, and served well as a reminder for all drivers out there.
    I remember Kenny said before, if you don’t like, don’t read. He did not show any faces/car plate no. I can understand the whole situation better with picture, and if things like this ever happen to me, i’m sure i will be better prepared, as i learned from Kenny’s experience, where he kindly share for us.
    and come on, he doesn’t have to earn fame with these pictures. He’s already famous enough, as someone whom i would not missed any of his entries.

  476. My condolence to the family!
    And I don’t think Kenny is like Kevin Carter. For god’s sake, he did help in every way he could. And those priceless pictures and this blog entry did convey a powerful message, and serve a purpose rather than selling his blog, doesnt it? It’s disturbing, but it was a right thing to do. Being a rather reckless driver as I am, it alarms me. I’m not saying I can change myself right now, but I will. My full support!

  477. This post is a reminder to every road users to be careful and obey the traffic rules . Kuching drivers usually do not put on a signal when turning. Bad drivers are everywhere here.

  478. my fren’s dad died in a similar accident too… she lost her dad, i lost a fren who is no longer the same. pls becareful whn u drive. if u do not think for yourself, think for the others pls

  479. just my 2cents worth. i think the purpose why this entry is up, and why ( as other readers claim ) that he’s being insensitive to take pictures at that point of time, is partly because he wants to do up an entry, to increase awareness. and knowing that he has got so many readers, I THINK he hopes that people who reads this blog will be more careful while driving.

  480. You were not traumatised enough to not snap pictures of the accident.
    Personally, this entry would have just been as impactful if you had not posted at all. or maybe a pic taken from a newspaper article instead of those that you snapped yourself.

  481. Typically where feelings run high the emotional will try to kill the Messenger. Having assessed there was nothing within his scope to contribute, Kenny did what he does best “collected data for his blog”.
    Besides the obvious Extending of Condolences and Sincere Expressions of Sorrow.
    The blog gave me pause to consider The driver tried to overtake where there was NOT enough room:- A Motor Vehicle is the most Dangerous piece of equipment many people will ever operate, and passing a Driving Exam doesn’t qualify anyone as a good Driver,it simply means they have demonstrated the Minimum acceptable level of Safety in Operating the Vehicle. It is why some countries now issue Graduated Licenses-Pass the test then drive with an experienced driver for a while until they get comfortable. Daytime Running Headlights-as Ignition switches on Headlights come on-Really does INCREASE visibility and stats proove they reduce accidents.Seatbelts-Adult seatbelts only work well for kids sitting on booster seats, kids in back seat become projectiles on impact.What are penalties like for Reckless/Careless/Negligent Driving – I’ve always reasoned that Killing someone with a Motor Vehicle carries the LEAST penalty for taking a Human Life, fact is the victim is just as dead as any other means. I know of a family on the Serian Road who has had TWO members die as direct result of being hit by vehicles and two others with permanent injuries all hit while WALKING, which suggest Reckless drivers don’t really FEAR incurring penalties.Auto Insurance should be tied to Driving Record, I know some who pay more for Insurance than the care is worth, and Driving without insurance should carry direct prison terms. There has NEVER been a single case where a child has initiated it’s entry into this world,and for that reason alone Adults have a duty to keep them SAFE.
    In closing I’d like to offer:-
    “The upright, though they die before their time will find rest.
    Length of days is not what makes age honourable, nor number of years the true measure of life; understanding, this is grey hairs, untarnished life, this is ripe old age. Having won God’s favour, they have been loved and, as they were living among sinners, have been taken away. They have been carried off so that evil may not warp their understanding or deceitfulness seduce their souls; for the fascination of evil throws good things into the shade, and the whirlwind of desire corrupts a simple heart. Having come to perfection so soon, they have lived long; Their souls being pleasing to the Lord, they have hurried away from the wickedness around them.
    Grace and Mercy awaits his chosen ones and God intervenes on behalf of his holy ones. The Upright who die condemns the Godless who survive, and youth quickly perfected condemns the lengthy old age of the wicked.” Wisdom: 4/7-16.

  482. Kenny makes a fine journalist. This post wouldn’t have made as much of an impact if it weren’t for the images. Insensivity? What insensivity? We have MPs calling women derogatory names and THIS is insensivity? It’s not as though he took photographs of the bodies.

  483. come on folks, death happend everyday la, that’s just life flip the newspaper, google it up, watch TV news it’s all there… shit happpend, my kudos & adoration to Kenny Sia for manipulating the whole situation… yup sensationalize you go Kenny

  484. condolence to the family involved in the fateful accident. and poor Kenny, bombarded senselessly in HIS OWN SPACE. Geez! Don’t you know what a blog is?

  485. A good post and reminder to all to value life. I wonder how the accident happend. My sympathy. Nuff Said.
    Am questioning the issue of one judgemnet of integrity, humanity and ethic here. If I’m a family member to the victim, I’ll be furious. What have our society have become. Certain thing/incident that we face sometime need to be keep mum not to be share to fellow public. And one thing that I fear is stumble upon Keny Sia in real life, and I’ll be wondering will he publicize me without my consent.

  486. I think it’s very stupid that there’re so many people concerned over ONE girl in THIS car accident when so many people in the world are dying out there. Rather then saying, “RIP” or “My condolences”, why don’t y’all go donate some money to the AIDS fund or something, so you can prevent more people from dying?

  487. i’m a mom with 2 kids, always driving them back n forth all over the place school tuitions activities, we’re careless, never wear seat belts, always in a hurry……….. but after seeing these photos i’m going to make sure everyone buckles up and i’m never going to overtake …ever. However gruesome these pixs may seem to everyone else who knows how many lives are saved by this.

  488. to girl
    i cant believe i just read that. cant believe you actually can be so nonchalant about a life. what if that was u? or one of ur family? still unconcerned? and since when did donating money to AIDS funds prevent ppl from dying.

    “KUCHING: A 47-year-old pregnant woman and her three family members, killed instantly in a head-on collision last Friday, were laid to rest at noon yesterday.
    TRAGIC: Grieving relatives pay their last respects to the four victims.
    Relatives came from as far as Johor, Miri, Limbang, Serikei and Serian to pay their last respects.
    The funeral procession started from Kota Samarahan and ended at a graveyard in Siniawan.
    The woman was found to be two months’ pregnant at the time she was killed.
    The tragic incident took place at Jalan Matang-Batu Kawa at about 3.15pm on Friday.
    Kuching District traffic police DSP Awang Kasumajaya was quoted by Bernama as saying that the car driven by the woman’s daughter, 22, was overtaking another vehicle when it smashed into a lorry.
    The front portion of the car was destroyed. Rescuers had to cut through the wreckage to retrieve the bodies.
    The death toll was four: the woman, her daughter and two grandchildren – one aged two years and another only eight months old.
    A four-year-old girl, who sustained serious head injuries, was the sole survivor among the occupants of the car.
    The lorry driver, 50, escaped with light injuries. ”

  490. its dangerous to bend down your body look for something or take something when you drive in a very high speed,your car might move to the opposite land while you are bending down your body if there is the car at the other side thats the time we say so long to our dear one.PLS PLS never bend down your body to search thing inside while your are in a high speed.

  491. Aw man.. The girl passed away? My highest regrets to the family and relatives of the girl.. Pity.. So young and yet so unlucky.. Reminds me of the advertisement of the road safety the government used to use in tv advertisements..
    Moral: Driving safely isn’t for your own safety only, it’s also for the safety of those around you.

  492. Kenny ohh, weird thing i never see pictures as DETAILED as yours in China Press or any other press. Wonder why they never put it up. Maybe hoh, Kenny, you go there and then ask them to print your detailed pictures in their paper.
    See what they tell you. Whether they think it is ethical.
    It is ok, Kenny, by not removing the picture you have proved to yourself and the media that you are ETHICAL in taking such pictures.
    Some say it is noble like saving lives (pun intended). Wow!
    If something like that happens to you, I will do the same, Kenny. I will stay there and take pictures, DETAILED one some more. Wait for the person like the bystander in your picture and save you and take another picture, then post it in a blog.
    It is ok, Kenny, dun remove anything. I will follow your example. Don’t blame me, yeah. It is ETHICAL and NOT WRONG, yes it is (not).
    Yes, it’s ok, Kenny, your conscience will tell you what you did is NOT wrong. Your conscience will tell you that your sub-conscious intention is NOT to take the photo because it is controversial and you can get hits and money out of it.
    Good luck, rest well and have a good dream. God will bless people like you for ‘saving lives’ and reminding others to drive safely like some of the visitors here say. God will bless you because you do not intend to make money out of this and generate hits.
    God bless you. I am sure the people who died and family involved will thank you very much for the pictures. They will be happy and greatful for someone to record such tragic event and NOT make money and hits out of it. Yeah, ahem, yes, that is right.
    What a noble man you are. So all ladies and gentleman out there, next time when you see accident, just call 999 and then stand there and take pictures. DETAILED ones. It would be best if ten or twenty of you there. Then you can see everyone happily snapping away, while those inside have difficulty and dying. It is ETHICAL to do so, right?
    I would do so if you are involved in accident too..
    Good luck Malaysia.

  493. Kenny Sia says:
    “The web edition does not have photos, but the newspapers have at least 10 photos of the wreckage, the victim’s family, the wake and mourning.
    Is it offensive? I would think so because they are using this tragic story to sell their newspapers.
    You talk about ‘respect’ but I still do not understand why people have such double standards when it comes to newspapers and my blog.
    I have one blog entry about my first-hand account of the accident. The newspaper have FIVE full pages.
    Posted by: kennysia [TypeKey Profile Page] at 20 May 2007 2:38 AM | Link to comment ”
    That means you just admitted to using the accident to sell the popularity of your blog. Just like the newspaper use it to sell theirs.
    Kenny said: Your argument is a fallacy. I don’t think I EVER admit to use the accident to ‘sell’ the popularity of my blog. I DO NOT NEED TO, WANT TO, OR EVEN INTEND TO USE THE CAR ACCIDENT TO ‘SELL’ MY BLOG.
    People are using the argument that I blog about this entry to become popular. THAT IS BULLSHIT. I blogged about this incident because I witnessed it first-hand and it was a case where my day-to-day routine was not normal. THAT IS WHY I BLOGGED ABOUT IT. Not for freaking popularity! I know what stuff I write is popular and I know this is not it.
    They are a news agency. Those pictures are posted with consent from the immediate family members and taken after the accident. They have a code of ethics to follow.
    Kenny replies: You can name me EVERY SINGLE code of ethics that press photographers follow and I can prove to you that I followed EVERY SINGLE one of them. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE. OF THEM.
    You took those posted before you got any permission and during the accident. Do you also know how many complaints news agencies got a day?
    Kenny replies: THEN DO YOU COMPLAIN TO THE NEWS AGENCIES? Of course not! Why? Newspapers don’t have a Comments page!
    You on the other hand are not. You are a single individual that got famous not because of journalistic values and out of a sudden you pulled something like this on your blog. What exactly do you expect? …..oooo…more hits of course!!! Silly me…
    Kenny replies: Stop trying to explain everything that I do is for the popularity of the blog. Tell you one thing ok? I DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE POPULARITY OF MY BLOG.

  494. ———–
    YEAH, KENNY, SUPER NOBLE PERSON
    ———–
    Kenny oh Kenny, the photos in China Press was taken NOT during the accident where LIVES could have been saved.
    You were taking pictures when you KNOW FIRST AID and LIVES CAN BE SAVED. I mean look at this picture
    Kenny replies: THEY ARE ALL DEAD. How do you save four dead people?!
    One picture with a lot of people (volunteers) coming out to think of a way to save them. Then there is this motorcyclist who took a child out and send her to hospital while you are busy snapping away at the poor dying child and the noble volunteer.
    Kenny replies: THE MOTORCYCLIST WAS NOT TAKING THE CHILD TO SEND HER TO THE HOSPITAL. The motorcyclist was lifting her out from the front seat, chant some Muslim prayers and laying her on the back seat.
    So, ok lah, it’s ok. You are right. You are noble person who in your mind and soul intentionally never help them because you dunno what to do (although you know first aid).
    Kenny replies: Like I said, there was a 45 minute gap between calling the ambulance and the ambulance actually arriving. FORTY FIVE MINUTES. No one could do anything at all because they are all dead. WE CHECKED.
    Weird thing, you know first aid, the rest of the volunteers i am not sure. You know photography too. Ohh, you are a noble person. You choose to use photography first but don’t want to use first aid.
    Kenny replies: THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    Good hoh, very noble person. Hope the God knows your nobility. It is not for us to judge you. God will judge you for your own personality.
    But I believe you are a noble person. Next time, if my child is a DOCTOR or a NURSE and saw such accident, I tell him, dun do anything, just make a call to 999, SNAP PICTURES first, then post in my blog, say like you are sorry. Then only consider you wanna use your first aid skills to help the victim.
    Kenny replies: THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    Do that even if that is your relatives, no problem, snap first, (maybe) help later…
    It is ok. No problem, Kenny Sia sets a good example of that. People think it is ethical. So, just do it.
    Thank you Kenny Sia for the good moral that you, as a famous, so-called professional, most influential in Malaysia for teaching the current and future generation in Malaysia…
    Bless you all, keep on supporting him. He is definitely a righteous man. He said it is not wrong because the papers are not wrong. Ok, we take his word for it.

  495. CALLING THE FUTURE GENERATION OF MALAYSIA TO FOLLOW KENNY SIA.
    IF YOU KNOW PHOTOGRAPHY AND FIRST AID, WHICH SKILL WILL YOU USE FIRST?
    PHOTOGRAPHY, SNAP PICTURES FIRST. USE FIRST AID (OR DON’T) LATER.
    PICTURES MORE IMPORTANT THAN FIRST AID.
    WE SHOULD INTRODUCE THIS TO MORAL AND PENDIDIKAN AGAMA IN ALL SCHOOLS ALL OVER MALAYSIA.

  496. PLEASE DON’T EQUAL YOUR BLOG TO A NEWS AGENCY
    Your entries are entertaining at best if not crap at times.
    Just because you think its right doesn’t make it right. The public has spoken. Majority of your readers are against it.
    Kenny replies: I think you have a very skewed idea of statistics. Don’t say a majority of my readers are against it when you yourself don’t know if it is true. JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT IS TRUE DOES NOT MEAN IT IS TRUE.
    Those who supported you can barely even make a logical argument. All they can come up with is ask us to get out. Doesn’t this shows the level of maturity that take your side and perhaps yours….no offense.

  497. A panicky person should stay calm and not use his first aid skills. So he must stay calm take more pictures while people do their work.
    It is an ethical thing to do from the way some people here say, I mean, just take pictures when you are panick. Never mind, that person is dying.
    If those people say that this is ethical is involved in an accident, I pray to God that ALL those that appeared during that time are those who knows first aid but choose to take pictures first because of panicky.
    They (people who say Kenny is a super noble man) say it is good, so they should be treated as such. Nothing wrong with that.
    You see, some people here say, it reminds them to drive safely. I mean, now Kenny is the hero mar, the photographer.
    No one mention about the volunteers who save the kids. It is proven, pictures is a priority.

  498. Wow, there’s way too much repetitive comment posts, but the question is who are we to judge the ethics and morals of other people in that situation? Most of us will just end up fighting the evil within ourselves.
    Here’s my two cent, if I were to be a family member of the victims, I’d kindly ask Kenny to remove the pictures from the blog, but I won’t hold anything against him.

  499. No, you did not say picture is priority, but it is ethical to take picture that way and you know first aid but don’t use it but use the photograph first.
    Kenny replies: THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    So, photography is priority. Actions speak louder than words. Kenny, we, the future generation of Malaysia will follow you, LOYALLY.
    SECOND PART:
    It is OK to take such pictures you and the rest say. It is OK to do that. So, next time, accident time we will take photography while the rest of the volunteers (dunno whether they know first aid or not) help but if we know first aid, we dun help, snap photographs because of panicky.
    Kenny replies: We already helped all we could. I snapped the photos while waiting for the ambulance. THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    This one you got say mar… Thank you, Kenny, next time you or those that support this action as moral involve in accident, I will also take photograph first when i panick even though I know first aid. Weird thing, the photographs look so nice taken when panick (yours for example).
    Kenny replies: THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    Thank you Kenny, God bless you. Your intention is never to make money for the public. But you proved yourself is right. So, you are a celebrity and you call yourself an ethical journalist.
    So, ok lor, we follow you and teach our children this.
    Shoot (picture) first when panick then only decide whether to help. Doesn’t matter if you know first aid. Doesn’t matter if you are doctor or nurse.
    Kenny replies: We already helped all we could. I snapped the photos while waiting for the ambulance. THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    Thank you Kenny bless you. Good example for the world and children of tomorrow. Drive safely and sleep tightly. We will pray for you.

  500. folks, wake up! cant you guys see what was the message that kenny trying to convey to all of us? he knows that his blog has got so many readers and he sees this as a good opportunity to send out the message to us. Would you guys be aware of the consequence/seriousness of speeding/reckless driving if there are no pictures of the accident scene being posted up?
    Would that benefit any of us by keep on going to defend or criticise kenny? think about it..guys, life cannot take two..so take this as a lesson, THINK ABOUT YOUR LOVE ONES and be more careful while on the road..

  501. afser, like I said, if the family of the victims were to ask me to remove them I will do so respectfully.
    Seeing as how they have agreed to accept interviews with newspapers and are ok with them publishing photos of the accident, I do not see a difference between what is printed on the papers and what is printed on the web.
    It is the same news, written by two different parties, published on two different forms of media.

  502. KENNY IS A GOOD MORAL AND NOBLE JOURNALIST. MALAYSIA SHOULD FOLLOW HIM. TEACH THIS IN PENDIDIKAN MORAL, KINDERGARTEN AND AGAMA. CELEBRITIES SHOULD FOLLOW HIM.
    We should all follow him.
    When panick, although got many people also panick and help the girl, we just stand and take photograph even though we know first aid and then only decide.
    Most of all, we must feel distraught when we take this pic and refuse to remove it because it is ethical.
    Then we post in blog and get many many hits.
    Never mind with the family involved. The girl let other volunteers to help. Just give short short answers when people question your ethics because it is ethical.
    All celebrities should follow Kenny as well, not only children. If Amber Chia saw an accident, she should also take the picture.
    If, got many journalist saw Kenny or those that support him in this issue, involved in any accident. Just repeat what he did. He consider that it is right. So, we LOYAL people should follow him GAO GAO.
    Take his picture in DETAIL, like how the volunteers help the girl (if he is in accident, that would be him) while he just stand there snapping away (nice pictures taken in panick).
    If got more journalist ask them to come together and do the same thing, Like ten to twenty ppl. Just do that even though you all know first aid. Snap pictures. Take from side of the car, left of the car, everywhere. Do it after you call 999 but dun you use first aid because panick. Use photography because panick. Great idea, Kenny!
    Nuff said.

  503. Kenny Sia says:
    “Kenny replies: I think you have a very skewed idea of statistics. Don’t say a majority of my readers are against it when you yourself don’t know if it is true. JUST BECAUSE YOU THINK IT IS TRUE DOES NOT MEAN IT IS TRUE.”
    Doesn’t the amount of comments here speak for themselves, I am sure you read through most of it. Not to mention the amount of discussion generated among bloggers(surprisingly none came to your rescue so far). Like I say those who are against it does give out good points, although some are just plain bashing. My question is why don’t consider some the points highlighted. They are harsh but they are not exactly wrong.
    What you did there is good thing, I have no comments on that, no doubt to it but the photo taking part at that particular moment is just not right. The fact that if you just wanted to create an awareness why not do with just one or two pictures. I am sure the consequences would have been much subtle.
    Think about it.

  504. WELL THE GIRL WAS NOT DEAD.
    Kenny replies: We already helped all we could. I snapped the photos while waiting for the ambulance. THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    REPLY:
    The GIRL WAS NOT DEAD. Look at the picture above. The volunteer helped.
    Kenny replies: The girl he was holding was dead. I was there. I took the picture. I should know. The surviving one had already been sent to the hospital. The volunteer in that picture arrived AFTER all that had happened, and he was holding the dead girl, chanting Muslim prayers. He was doing that while we were waiting for the ambulance to arrive.
    Yes, true, snap picture first. Do not try to help.
    Kenny replies: I helped ALL I could before I snapped even a single picture.
    Kenny, good moral there. I have learnt something new from you. Me LOYAL super fan.
    THE VOLUNTEER took THE GIRL OUT TO CHECK WHETHER SHE WAS DEAD. They tried to help. The volunteers there are NOT STUPID.
    Kenny replies: The motorcyclist in that picture holding the girl arrived AFTER we all have already confirmed that they were dead.
    People help to check whether any could be saved.
    Oh yeah, Kenny, you mean you used your First Aid to see whether they are dead is it?
    I mean how did you know. Wah, good wor. People may be unconscious but can be saved, but you say them dead.
    Kenny replies: In this situation, if they are still alive they would be crying, or screaming, or making movement. If they are unconscious then they are in no danger of becoming dead. As long as the area is safe (ie, no danger of the car blowing up), it is perfectly alright to leave the unconscious inside the car.
    It must be you used your first aid. Otherwise how to know that right?
    Aiyoh, kenny dun lie to us lar, you say you never used your first aid but only taking pictures. Please lar, kenny.
    Kenny replies: I respectfully deny that accusation.

  505. mau jok foo, you still don’t get the point. The point is they gave interviews to bona fide reporters who requested for it. Your’re the party with no permission. You have no respect.

  506. Kenny,
    It’s my 2nd time leaving a comment here. I usually only read.
    Don’t hafta take into heart of what the others have to say. If they were there, i believe they’d took fotoz too.
    Receiving first aid training doesnt mean we know how to do it when it comes to the real thing. Ex pbsm member here. lol. And to do it in an accident like that.. phew!
    take care.

  507. I don’t get it. Kenny rocks.
    ————————————————-
    Go on stupid. Go on and apply first aid on someone dead. You people really comment a lot even though you aren’t at the scene, don’t you? I am awed by your level of stupidity.
    So photographs are not allowed to be taken? DID KENNY TAKE PICTURES OF THEIR DEAD FACES OR NOT? YES?
    You guys have great moral values don’t you? Dumbass criticisms like “KENNY SNAPS PICTURE WHEN OTHERS HELP” came out. I mean, how do you people even know that the others help when kenny snaps pictures? HOW THE HELL DID YOU PEOPLE COME UP WITH THAT CONCLUSION???

  508. Based on the comments, the ‘for’ people think Kenny boy is doing everybody a favor, at the expense of the dead and their family, by alerting them of the dangers of driving. They also think its nobody’ business to comment because this is a blog open to the public!
    The ‘against’ ppl have a high sense of right and wrong, are against privacy intrusions and see Ken’s hypocritic justification of his actions. unless his English is that bad, nobody would use ‘An Unfortunate Accident’ as the title. It would be fine if you lost some money, or smashed your car but came out alive. To describe it as ‘unfortunate’ is poo-poohing the tragedy.
    btw, somebody shd do a count of ppl ‘for’ or ‘against’ the pics to see how the majority of Ken’s readers think. R they idoits or highly moralistic?

  509. Another thing Kenny,
    Do read up on Kevin Carter. The situation might be different but I believe the moral and ethical grounds pose a close resemblance here. Alot of war photojournalist or others do it because of their job. Do you also know many ended up seeing psychiatrist for life? Kevin Carter is not the only one who committed suicide.
    Not all photojournalists are doing the right and ethical thing but they do it anyway. They don’t have that kind of hype as you do because they are not famous. Even if they are bashed today for their actions no one would know. Even if they got in to trouble they have a group of legal panel from the agency defending their asses.

  510. To those who say they’ll do the same as Kenny i.e. snap graphic pics of accidents from all angles, I really wonder if you’ve thought about it. Would you really, if you see such a horrifc accident, gawk and walk around taking pics?? You really give the word ‘heartless’ its worth.

  511. normanau: do u not see this guy (now that’s a hero) carrying the injured girl (how many would dare or bother, all that blood) while Kenny follows 5m behind taking his masterpiece super-sharp pic on his so-called handphone??
    Kenny replies: The girl he was holding was dead. I was there. I took the picture. I should know. The surviving one had already been sent to the hospital. The volunteer in that picture arrived AFTER all that had happened, and he was holding the dead girl, chanting Muslim prayers. He was doing that while we were waiting for the ambulance to arrive.

    I am a SUPER LOYAL fan of Kenny too. Like you, I believe everything he say one, I never question or think. How ohhh, how did Kenny know the people are dead when they could be unconscious?
    He used first aid to diagnose arr is it?
    Hmmn, ok lar , Kenny dun say to us you never use first aid yeah.
    norman said:
    So photographs are not allowed to be taken? DID KENNY TAKE PICTURES OF THEIR DEAD FACES OR NOT? YES?
    REPLY
    Oh yeah, like Kenny, norman if you are dead in the accident like that, I will snap pictures like that of you too. It is not unethical according to Kenny.
    No lar, it is not immoral to do that. I will snap pictures using Kenny’s method. Don’t snap face, just snap people helping, snap your leg, snap part of your hair when motorcyclist pick you out from your car.
    Snap inside your car. P.S. We are not sure whether Kenny snapped into the people involved but if the picture is not shown here, we will not snap. We snap your legs and hair, and a bit of your blood if got accident.
    I am sure you won’t mind that I post yours on the net if it happens. You super loyal fan. Bless you. I’ll be there if you got involved.
    Bless ya.

    REPLY:
    Hi stella, yes, you are right. Are you saying that taking photos during the accident when volunteers help out the people is right? Are you saying that if you are dead I can snap all I want?
    Ok, stella, if you are involved in such accident I believe I will snap your photo too and put it in blog and write “distraught”, “sorry” like Kenny. Snap leg, snap hair, snap your blood. Hmmn.
    I believe, hoh, deep down in your heart you won’t blame me. I believe, you won’t mind me snapping and putting it into my blog and become celebrity.
    Thank you stella. Me, like you is Kenny’s loyal fan. We support him unconditionally. Hey, love ya.
    P.S. We are not sure if volunteers who helped the victims know any form of first aid, but they were great persons to help but STUPID not to take photos.
    Regards..

  514. Kenny: her head sure looks like the size of a 4 yr old (who survived). The guy was brave, you gotta admit. I’m not plonking on you for not helping to carry the dead. Just for being so mean and tastless.

  515. Once and for all, I’d like to paint you a picture on what actually went on.
    I DID NOT TAKE ANY PHOTOS WHEN WE WERE FRANTICALLY TRYING TO SAVE THE CAR CRASH VICTIMS.
    I respectfully deny any accusations that I was trying to do so. As the firsts who arrived at the scene, we tried my best to do whatever we can. We really did.
    The point of argument a lot of people make seems to center around that photo I took of the motorcyclist holding on to a girl.
    The girl was not the same girl that was sent to the hospital.
    The girl that motorcyclist was holding was already dead. I was there. I took the picture. I should know. The surviving girl had already been sent to the hospital. They are not the same girl.
    The volunteer in that picture arrived AFTER all that had happened. The volunteer in that picture did the action AFTER we have ascertained that there were no survivors left in the car. The volunteer in that picture was holding the dead girl, chanting Muslim prayers. He was doing that while we were waiting for the ambulance to arrive.
    In case you missed it, here is the timeline of what actually happened. I’m hoping this will clear my name.
    3:15pm. A bystander stopped my car asking for help. I called 991. Yes, we were frantic and in shock, but we tried to do what we can. We managed to stop more cars passing by and ask help. Soon, about 5 people came to our assistance.
    3:20pm. We checked on the victims. There was a lot of blood but no movement. I was still in shock and distraught and I did not dare to approach the cars too close because I was scared, but the braver ones did. One Malay guy checked on each one inside the car and ascertained one child was still breathing and she was rushed to the hospital with the assistance of a Chinese guy.
    3:40pm. A crowd of about 20 bystanders started to form. A traffic jam was also starting to occur so we took turns directing traffic. After my turn, a guy took over from me and I returned to investigate the wreckage. I was still distraught but by instinct I took some photos with my Samsung X820 phone. I didn’t take the photos for fun. I took it because it is not everyday that I witnessed a horrific accident like this. In fact, it was my first and I wanted to document it.
    3:45pm The Malay motorcyclist shown in that photo picked up the dead girl from the front seat. He chanted Muslim prayers after realising that the girl he was holding on was no longer breathing and placed her to rest on the back seat, as shown in the photo.
    3:50pm There was really not much any of us could have done except waiting for the ambulance. So I basically talked to the volunteers around me about what a sad thing this incident is.
    4:00pm The ambulance and police arrived. I gave my account of the story.
    4:15pm I left and returned to work.

  516. kenny, when you first put up the post, I would like to believe that you did so for a good reason. maybe to educate people on road safety? maybe to share a first hand account on something that affected you? but after this furore, you can probably see that a lot of people are very unhappy with it. you can read their views, whether it’s an invasion of privacy, disrespectful to the ‘victims’ or whatever.
    so did you take their view? no. you did not think that it is disrespectful to the family, after all, the newspapapers also print, what? you follow rule, what? by the legal system, maybe you really did do nothing wrong. but the point here is we’re talking about morals, about what’s right or wrong.
    is that your stance on the subject? that you did no wrong or disrespect? honestly, once can’t care less what your stance is, as i said in my previous post, it’s up to yourself what you can live with. but think of it, you have a social responsibility, a big one at that. and this is what you do?
    the only resolve, is to ask yourself this. if it has been your own kin, god forbid? if it had been you, and some other blogger comes along and posts such pictures, and whatever? what would you feel? don’t talk to me about the actual family concerned, most people don’t know better. but you should. what would you feel?

    ‘an unfortunate incident involving well known blogger kenny sia’
    pics below, with maybe your ipod earphones hanging out the car. viewer discretion is advised.

    what would you feel? what would your family feel?

  517. Me hoh, ethical person snap during accident with their blood and waited 45 minutes wor while others helped wor. Panick, but great pictures.
    Kenny replies: I helped before I took any photos.
    So, the not ethical in me hoh, I will ask their family whether they allow me these photos to go into my blog or not.
    Kenny replies: There is no need to ask. It is a news item. Does newspaper need permission to ask when reporting the news? For God’s sakes, the family is grieving you still wanna ask that type of question? And for your information, The Borneo Post posted the news item on their website first before I did. Do you think they asked?

  518. so you caught my mistake, that she was not injured but dead. but pls don’t divert the point which is that you followed behind this guy (the real hero) and snapped away. Snapped pics of ppl carrying this dead girl. Why?? Time to tell the whole world now.
    Kenny replies: The guy is the real hero because…? He chanted some Muslim prayers to a dead girl?
    p.s. print in bold is for emphasis or you’re mad b/c I’ve struck your atom-sized conscience?
    Kenny replies: Print in bold is for easy reading.

  519. or worse,your’re upset b/c this other guy is the real hero?
    Kenny replies: The guy is the real hero because…? He chanted some Muslim prayers to a dead girl? Please explain why you think the man holding the dead girl after we have already ascertained that they were no survivors is a real hero.

  520. Kenny u can try defend yourself all you want, but whenever something bad happens to you or people around you i will be interested to see how many pictures you will snap then…Asshole!Disgrace to Kuching!
    Kenny replies: I took photos during my father’s funeral as well. There is nothing wrong in that.

  521. “kevin carter”, honestly mate, if God forbid something were to happen that way, yes I will be sad and upset when I read it. But I will be sad and upset because someone I’m close to is gone, NOT because the blogger chose to blogged about it. This is after all, big news. And you cannot avoid people talking about it, especially when a blogger was there to give a first-hand account on what happened.

  522. weyh..apsal laa korang nie bodo sgt..kenny tue amik gmbr psl die nk share experience die..bukannya die amik gmbr org mati tue pn..die amik pic kete jer kan..itu pun tk reti pk..harap jer tau ckp english..otak letak kat lutut..amik laa entry die nie as pengajaran..nie tk..nk kutuk2 org..klu bst sgt..bukak laa blog sendri..

  523. the only resolve, is to ask yourself this. if it has been your own kin, god forbid? if it had been you, and some other blogger comes along and posts such pictures, and whatever? what would you feel? don’t talk to me about the actual family concerned, most people don’t know better. but you should. what would you feel?

    REPLY:
    Kenny say it is not unethical (means ethical lor right ?).
    He won’t mind, I think. I am there to take his pic, not face, but his ipod, his blood, his leg, his hair, his saviour, his car, although I can only see he is unconscious.
    Well, just assume he is dead anyway. If know first aid, just use it to diagnose.
    If dead liao, keep on snapping in panicky (he said he was panicky for the incident above), snap snap snap, wow! Put in blog.. Never mind one.
    If his family see hoh, cry, sad, angry, distraught, trauma and shout at me, then only I remove the pic lor. Chieh, what I doing is ethical mar. The family is overreacting. Yes I will blame the family although I never ask them respectfully whether I can post the pics first.
    Good example, Kenny.
    P.S. Next time got accidents like this hoh, snap more yeah. Snap also the body, the inside of the car, but never snap face. Snap blood also. Snap anything other than face. Only snapping is unethical (that is why you never did it).
    We super loyal fans want to see more more more !
    Love ya

  524. ei kenny one question, before that you mentioned a friend of yours which is a friend of the family member tell you the girl passed away and you don’t want to discuss anymore….
    Then when got people found out the little girl is still alive, you come out say it was a mistake…
    UR FRIEND WILL PROVIDE YOU WRONG INFO? APRIL FOOL A? HIS OTHER FRIEND FAMILY DAUGHTER DIE A? OR YOU SIMPLY CREATE A STORY?
    i seriously think you are just bullshitting to the extend of lying about the girl’s condition. Jerk
    Kenny replies: Proof that I am telling the truth – HERE and HERE.

  525. come on now, chicken with no name. let the man speak for himself. i understand that everyone’s angry and all that, but let’s keep to reason shall we, even though i think your posts are hilarious (in a mean kind of way ;-D) and you got a hilarious nick.
    kenny, do answer the question please. and lay the ghosts to rest.
    Kenny replies: I have already answered. Scroll back.

  526. what’s there to answer. ppl are dead, the family not pursuing, why is everyone so fucking kepoh? shaddap and get back to ur own lives and let kenny lead his, ok, u porkies! ish!
    leave tat pure dude alone. u’re giving him more stress than anyone can ask for. i don see u condemning anything that closely concerns ur life, something like the increase of cancer rates because ppl who smoke! i don see u scolding a smoker when he does more harm to u than kenny can ever do! u ppl jiak ba sibeh eng, bo si cho come and anyhow criticise.

  527. that’s funny, why didn’t it refresh at first.
    thank you, kenny, for the answer.
    a lot here think that the photos were distasteful and of no respect to the dead. i for one wouldn’t want an unfortunate incident in my family to be spread in the presses or media, and would do anything to stop such things from occuring even if it is ‘news’ to some. i just don’t think whatever happens to my own kin has any concern with outsiders, traditional as it may seem. only the people who needs to know should know, not anyone else. sometimes i really despise the ‘kepoh’ attitude of people, let the grieving grieve in peace, don’t just wish anyone well to make yourself feel good about yourself.
    maybe you do think that if it happens, it happens. but i wouldn’t encourage such a thing, or tolerate it even. but it is your blog after all, and i do wish you would remove the majority of the photos from public view.

  528. KENNY, YOU WHERE GOT ANSWER?

    REPLY:
    Yeah, answer this.
    Ayy, why did you delete the praises the chicken said to you ? The praises that you say all children in Malaysia, celebrities, bloggers should all follow you?
    Why did you delete the posts. It is praises from super fan to you to follow you. Something good and ethical like you, never use first aid but use photography first should be followed.
    You say use journalist ethics mar, what is to be ashamed of?
    And.. where is the answer that we want?

  529. “I have one blog entry about my first-hand account of the accident. The newspaper have FIVE full pages.”
    And that justifies putting up pictures like these on your blog? Do you really want to stoop down to that level?
    Why can’t you understand that it’s morally incorrect? That it is insensitive and it portrays a false image (even if you meant well). I didn’t want to be part of this insanity in the first place because it is hugely blown out of proportion. But I do understand why so many people are so mad. They don’t hate you. They just don’t understand why YOU don’t understand how this is really wrong.
    No one is blaming you for not doing much because there’s nothing much that can be done and you’ve already done your part by calling an ambulance. But instead of doing just that, you done more. You took pictures. And people don’t understand because you claimed to be so distraughted and disturbed. No one in that state of mind would even think of taking pictures. It wouldn’t even have crossed their minds.
    Maybe you’re different, I don’t know, but I wouldn’t need to take pictures to document this incident in my life. I wouldn’t want to. Because I would have a tough time getting the image of the entire accident out of my head. I’ve once witness an accident before and I can still clearly remember every single detail. Some incidents just don’t require pictures as reminders. Memories are haunting enough.
    I know you meant well, I know you want to remind us of how dangerous the roads can be and I know you are truly sincere but there is such thing as being tactful. If there really must be a picture, that one picture of the head on collision is bad enough to remind us all to be safe. The others shouldn’t be there.
    And don’t compare yourself to a photo journalist or the media because while it maybe their job to be professional and report on tragic incidents like this, it is not yours. You’re just a blogger (albeit a famous one), and you are a regular person just like the rest of us. You had no obligation or duty to take those pictures. Yet you did, while claiming to be as distraughted as any of us would be in such a situation. This is what we do not understand.
    Hopefully you can put that ego down and see where we are coming from.
    I’m not here to attack you. I’ve been an avid reader of your blog and I’ve admired your preseverance in many occasions. However, a mistake is a mistake, and though we all make them, there is a time to admit what we’ve done wrong. Maybe you cannot see it from my point of view, it’s fine, at least you know that not everyone can see things from your point of view. That there may be a slight chance that you may be wrong.
    Give it a thought and move on.
    May God bless those who have perished in the accident and may they be well and protected wherever they are.

  530. I think its good you could still document it. But personally I wouldn’t out of respect of the ppl involved in the accident.
    My question is….what the fuck was that stupid driver (honda) thinking. Its a blatant act of suicide and not to mention murder.
    If the girl in hospital survives it all, how is she suppose to carry on?. The dead is dead and gone, it’s the survivors we should be praying for now. God help us all.

  531. I guess after all that has said and all the wild accusations that has been thrown against me, the thing I am MOST upset about is that a lot of you seem to genuinely think that I did not care.
    I thought I had done the right thing. Under those circumstances, yes I was in a panic – this is the first time I had seen dead bodies and dead children in a car accident – and yes we were frantic not knowing what to do at first. But never ever have I decide that blogging about this incident comes before saving lives. I swear over my own dead body. NEVER.
    As the first people to arrive at the scene, we have a huge responsibility to carry on our shoulders. And we had done our best. We truly, truly had. And I honestly believe everyone at the scene had tried whatever there was to do. And I want to reiterate that I took those photos only AFTER all that could be done has been done, after I had calmed down from the shock, and all we could do was wait for the ambulance. There were a lot of bystanders and all they could do was watch.
    Which is why I am upset that there people here accusing me for not doing enough.
    The fact of the matter is: after we made certain that there was only one survivor (who was sent to the hospital), and that everyone else in the car was not breathing or moving or crying, there really was not much else we could do. Really, there wasn’t. All we could do was wait 20 minutes or more for the ambulance to arrive.
    Another thing is, a lot of commenters here had try to stand up for the victim’s family. That is very admirable.
    I have nothing but condolences and sympathy for the victim’s family. The husband of the driver, overnight, had lost his wife and three children. That is very, very tragic news.
    And I question whether or not those same commenters have the same sympathy for those victim’s family as I do.
    It is one thing to stand up for the victim’s family against “the evil blogger”. It is another thing to show real care and concern for the victim’s family. You may question my conscience, but I question yours too.
    What have you done for the victim’s family?
    The images of the blood-covered bodies still replay in my mind even until today. I am in trauma as well and I do not need to deal with this bullshit.
    My only hope now is for the little girl in ICU to recover, and I wish that you share the same hope with me too.

  532. i don’t know what to say for those who accuse you of those things, i don’t share their points of view. for me, the only issue here is the photographs which ‘could’ be intepreted as offensive for some, including me. i as a reader can only kindly request you to remove them for the reasons posted above.but the final decision to post them is yours, it’s your moral call, my friend. if it’s right by your gut, then i respect your call. i do not doubt that you did what you thought was right, and the comments only serve as a moderation for you to reconsider your views in this case.
    and kenny, i do emphatize with you over the accusations thrown by the unscrupulous parties. best you can do is to let it be, since they do not know what they’re doing. i don’t doubt you tried to help the best you could given the situation. i understand your guilt at witnessing such a thing. i’ve been there before, with a close friend in fact. and the only advice i have for you is, you’ve done your best, it’s not your fault.
    godbless.

  533. Well, kenny to tell you the truth. I feel for the victims and his family that is why I post those comments.
    By the way, as for your question on the conscience part, you deleted my post for malicious contents? Hahaha, read it deep and ask yourself why you deleted it.
    You need not answer to me. You know what you were thinking when you first saw the accident, you know what you were thinking while doing the saving.
    I believe you will not like the picture if you are dead in an accident to be strewn across blogs too ..
    Good luck, kenny, sleep tight and think what was really in your mind at that time. Your conscious mind will deny it, but you know what you were thinking.
    The mirror will reflect and one day, the truth will flash before your eyes and your trauma will last forever for your initial intention in the accident .. Good money and hits you got there with the photos.
    Paid with moral, blood and conscience for your Samsung.

  534. WOW! A Chicken With No Name..u got my respect! a hell lotta bashing comment u made! respect man respect! so many time to type long long comment..hehehe. anyway! why not open ur own blog? u also famous already lor..then, u will talk about boring boring stuff..then,ppl can bash u for being such a boring guy XD haha..no matter what kind of blog a person/chicken write..still got ppl feel offended. the cycle will go on and on and on and on……

  535. amelia said was very true..a mistake is a mistake..u have to live with it..just lower ur ego and face it..blogging down this kinda stuff is just incorrect..really..wat if other blogger doing it the same to ur family members..how would u feel?

  536. LOL! INTERNET ARGUMENT!
    haha geez i don’t know if you people are retarded adults or just kids who happen to speak good english. Aiseh… no point la argue left and right.. just let kenny be and post hamit lan he want to post la.
    Besides, why do we even bother how many people died? For God’s sake do you people even know how many people die every day? Pictures of dead people in war torn countries are shown so often, have you ever thought of whether these broadcasters care about the families of the deceased in the pictures ma?
    Come on la, what difference does it make by putting up or not, Kenny Sia is not a freakin professional journalist and this is own personal blog, not financed by any of you mofos so stfu and gtfo. Let him write whatever BS he wants to write la k? I find your arguments amusing… Yes i am sick

  537. i agree with above commentor.
    i mentioned in my earlier comment that comparing yourself to a tabloid is not the best comparison to make unless you’d stoop to those levels. i sure as heck don’t expect to see pictures like the ones you’ve posted on the straits times(yes, singaporean here). perhaps the chinese evening papers, or the new paper where a little blood and gore or a provocative headline would send their papers flying off the shelves. but they are not respectable sources of news.
    if you wanted to do the general public a favour and post this PSA on your blog, should it not have been done with taste? i’m sure a few pictures of the scene of the crime from afar would’ve made an impact.
    take cigarette warning labels here(once again, a singaporean thing) for example. pictures of rotting feet.. post-autopsy brains.. dead babies etc. are computer generated, hence making them less disturbing.
    out of curiosity, after all that you’ve said in defense of yourself, why haven’t you already just removed the pictures and saved yourself a whole lot of trouble?
    we’re not asking for the world. it’s as simple as editing a blog entry and removing at least one or two of the pictures.

  538. ignore them…
    keep answering and explaining to them, will cause them feeling happy for getting the attentions they seek from u, and encouraging them for trying for more…
    you have done your part…
    this space just let them to judge…

  539. Kenny at least u did something dat’s to call for emergency help~ i myself think dat dis blog might gif us a warning dat we ought to be more aware while we r driving.. there’s no wrong in posting dis incident..if so wat for they post out in newspaper?? sitting there and criticizing ppl~ y don u imagine now u urself is in dat situation and wat’ll u do?? these pics taken can help too sometimes =)

  540. First time reader, Sorry your father passed away and you did took some pictures, but i thought those pictures were well taken, yet this one i find it a little too overboard, its not like you did took pictures of your fathers coffin or focus on it like you focus on multiple angles of this car accident…
    People who criticize you do have a point and while you might not agree it doesn’t mean they are just bashing you senselessly (although some are).
    it is a good blog, but i am not sure it did pass the correct message intended.

  541. faker
    Helps, stop, snaps, helps, stops, snaps
    whats in his mind when he first took out the camera?
    for the sake of his readership… pictures amplified his emotions more than just words…… OoOoOoOooooo
    So, not a controversial post to trigger more hits la?
    In another words, shouldnt we say Kenny took those pictures and put them up mostly, if not solely for the benefit for himself to generate positive viewership? To enhance his presence in the blogosphere? To create a buzz around his name? So that to translate those intangible fames he already has on web, to real life so that so make them more keenly felt? Say… on national television maybe?

    Viewership does go stagnant if you do not have something to stir it up once in a while, no?

    I dont know why is it so hard to understand.

    If your mum got killed in an accident, you go call Kenny and straight away he will fly to where you lives, snap pictures and blog about it ok? You like it that way?

    He helps out, and thats great. But problem is his rationality eludes me when he helps, stops, snaps, helps, stops, snaps. Even a reporter will subconciously tells you he did it for a paycheck.

    While it is great to help out, there is no denying he did it also for the benefit of himself, his blog. To generate hits, to have potential monetary gains.

    He did it to create a stir. Just like he did it with that christmas post 2 years ago, he puts on a controversy post to attract comments & viewerships. Why else you think LG will advertise their ‘chocolate’ here?

    There is a potential monetary gain if you could attract hundred thousands pair of eyes to your site everyday. In months to come, I wont surprise to see more brands to advertise here.

    Why couldnt he just help out and thats it? What is it in his mind the moment you took out his camera phone from his pocket if not potential monetary gains?

    If Kenny were to post up some lewd jokes and attract tons of comments, and potential monetary gains, that i am ok with it. In fact, those were what brought him fame years back. ANd that is what he should be doing!! But not this one.

    There were over 400 comments posted, and half if not most of the comments were questioning your intention the moment you took out your camera phone. It is an obvious attack.

    I think I will have more respect for Kenny if he apologizes. I will have even more respect for him if he admits the photgraphs he took partly for potential monetary gain.

    OOoooooooo

  542. Hi, I think you shouldn’t posted so many photos. Your blog linked a newspaper report already had one photo showing the accident, which is ENOUGH to tell the how serious the accident. Please put yourself in the shoes of the victims’ family. If you were them, do you wish to see these sad photos displayed on the web? For me, I won’t want to be reminded on this accident if I am the family members. It is already a tragedy to the family. And yet, they still need to read how others commented on the victims’ carelessnes, etc. I think you should remove most of the photos. You could continue to post those photos if you think you won’t mind if you were the family member of the victims. Thanks.

  543. i haven’t gone thru all the comments, but my first reaction was ‘u didn’t know what to do, but u were calm enough to click away?’ but that’s just me. am sure you were traumatised too, but do show a little empathy.

  544. On The Fence:
    http://www.kennysia.com/archives/2007/05/trauma.php#c373663
    Not only are you sick but I think you are another idiot as well.
    Sure, if next time you ever got into any mishap I would advise that no one come to your aid and no one should bother about it either. Honestly if I have your picture I would have post it up here.
    Why bother about On The Fence. Bad thing happen to people all the time. If he happen to fall down from the fence and impale his balls don’t bother to help him. Bad things happen. Tough Luck!!

  545. Kenny arr, if you are in an accident like that would you like your photo to be taken (let’s say you are dead) and be published in a blog?
    You won’t mind right? I take all photos but without face lar.

  546. Kenny at least u did something dat’s to call for emergency help~ i myself think dat dis blog might gif us a warning dat we ought to be more aware while we r driving.. there’s no wrong in posting dis incident..if so wat for they post out in newspaper??

    Hi there, if you are in an accident, I will be there to snap your pictures (if you are dead), snap everything but not face and then post it in my blog. You say Kenny did it right, so that would mean it is ok for people to do it unto you.

  548. Hello, this is rather subjective, but what’s disturbing is not the pictures, its the thought of you taking pictures of the incident with a camera phone/camera.

  549. no pictures, then u all wil complain his blog is bland. Put up pictures, and he is asking for attention. If u dont want to give him YOUR attention, pls dont come read his blog.He never even ask u to read.
    It was on Malay Mail, 1st May, that an accident victim have to wait 45 minutes for and ambulance to arrive, and the accident spot is just 10 minutes away from GHKL.How efficient is this? The victim would have died waiting for the proper medical aid. Any1 even realise this?
    Just shut up and stop coming back to this blog anymore.I respect all anti-kenny readers out there. Checking on his blog daily and waiting to criticise him all the time.So veri persistance. I salute all of u.

  550. I really don’t understand why you negative commentators even bother. Its not as if Kenny bothers to read all the comments. Even if he does, having received so much negative feedback(even on other posts) has probably made him immune to all your attacks on him.
    You people heap countless of names on him. But at the end of the day, who’s the real retard? Kenny, who still DECIDES whether or not to remove the pictures, or you people, who still DO NOT have the power to make him remove the pictures? Argue so much for nothing.
    Besides, who are you guys to judge whether he’s right or wrong? You’re not the government. You guys have no authority at all. If you’re going condemn a person just because he has done something that you think is wrong,that you should probably condemn yourselves too (does anyone dare to say that they’ve been a perfect saint throughout their whole life?).
    By the way, I think the photos have been photoshopped to make them clearer.

  551. I’m up n hey, Kenny asked me a Q! Well, he is a hero to carry the dead girl because most of us would quiver while some would prefer to take pics. Listen man, most of us against the pics aren’y Kenny-haters. We just think it callous of you to put so many pics while one or two would’ve been enough. Even the newpaper guys didn’t do that, showing frame by frame the sequence of the tragedy.
    I don’t get what you mean about the guy saying Muslim prayers.
    Kenny, the best post that sums up how many feel is that sent by amelia a few posts up. Read it without feeling defensive and try to understand.

  552. TTK: Regarding the statistics part, Isn’t most of those comments against Kenny by the same person? Some of them may have different names but they share the same writing style.
    I give Kenny my support. If I die, I wouldn’t mind ppl posting it on a blog. Atleast I won’t feel as though my death is insignificant to the world (although it is >.

  553. I think the blog here is ok. It may remind some of the ppl here to drive more carefully (hopefully but i doubt it).
    Regarding whether Kenny should do more , apply 1st aid or whatever action i think he has tried to his best ability and all the people in that area that were trying.
    Regarding whether photo should be taken down or not that up to the blogger now. But i see the photo was acceptable to certain degree.
    We are living in a modern Information Age, media information will get out to ppl sooner or later.The impact on the picture will able to provide us information on how severe the accident was and it could happen to us also and remind us.
    I saw once a picture of an accident on a malaysia north-south highway about 1-2 years ago until now could remember clearly the image in my head. A kancil with 1 male driver with 2 female passenger. The male driver was unable to avoid a lorry and eventually gotten into a very bad accident. How bad it was? Can u imagine it? By just saying like this do you think can register the impact damage in your head???The guy was pinned between his seats but was ok with light injury and have to wait for the fire department to arrive to pull him out but was consucious.But for the girls they head was sliced off and can you imagine what the guy going thru sitting beside his frens without their heads.? That picture when you see it will provide a very strong message on road accidents. If you think this is a fake story try to look it up.

  554. You said you took pics at your father’s funeral. So did I. But I would be angry if Dad had died tragically, along with many close family members, and someone I don’t even know took many graphic pics of the tragedy and the funeral and post it on his blog for all to see. Would you allow that for your father and siblings?
    I think you really would get much more respect (and peace of mind) if you took most of the pics down and apologize if your action offended anyone (bloggers should also have a code of ethics). We all make mistakes and it takes a mature and humble person to do so. You’re young but not necessarily immature. And there are many young readers out there. Let this whole thing teach you to be a better person b/c there’s something good from this:you can learn how to apologize if you’ve hurt people, rather than let your pride take over.

  555. as a journalist, i think it’s really disgusting that you managed to still take pictures and that you were disrespectful enough to show the body of a child hanging out from the car like that – especially given your proximity to the accident. your apologies are superfluous.

  556. What is wrong with you idiots? He took pictures, fine. It IS his blog you know. If it was a lesser known blogger, I bet none of you idiots would even spend two seconds on this blogpost.
    What Kenny did was his prerogative. He took the pictures and he put it on his blog.
    GET THE FUCK OVER IT.
    Seriously.
    Use all that pent up frustration you have towards Kenny towards something useful. Like advocating better driving, calling up the hospital to see if the little girl is okay or if the family needs any support.
    What irks me is that all these “haters” don’t even the balls to put up a link to their own blog or even leaving their internet non de plumes.
    Losers.
    Take a step back and see how ridiculously childish some of you are.
    AGAIN, GET THE FUCK OVER IT.

  557. And Kenny, you really don’t have to defend yourself so much. You’ve already made yourself clear. It’s not your fault these nutjobs have reading comprehension problems.

  558. Hi Kenny,
    Its just very sad to read some of these postings here by some of your readers. I think some of comments made here are just intended to create a stir and excitement in their otherwise mundane life.
    I think what you did was right and you have no need to defend yourself against these accusation made by some of the ppl here which are either too free or too narrow minded (chicken guy). Different ppl have different opinions and views. These ppl need to realise that a blog is an avenue for expressing ones’ thought and mind. Please don’t make life hard for bloggers. It’s their blog anyway. He can put anything damn well he like.And you can either choose to read or not read it.

  559. It’s not a question of who does what for whom, or who doesn’t for that matter. Yes, kenny, you did your part, no doubt about it, and yes you thought it was vital to convey out a message about reckless driving, and you did convey it out. Thank you for that.
    Having said that though, in my opinion this could have been done differently, i.e without the pictures. Yes, you’ve reiterated that all of the pictures were taken after which nothing could be done. My question is, do you have the consent of the family to publish this in your blog as a normal citizen and not as a journalist? This is not something that you could overlooked just because you’re an innocent bystander, a person who helped or anything else for that matter, this a tragedy that has happened as you have so aptly quoted to the husband of the driver,whom overnight, had lost his wife and three children, have you thought about how he feels about normal citizens taking photos and posting it up in their private domains?
    You can easily argue that reporters and journalists do so, but that’s difference, humans, or people have been brought up in a society whereby it is acceptable and not distasteful when a reporter or a journalist do their jobs in reporting and putting up gruesome pictures, but how many of us, copes so well with having normal people, day to day people like you and me taking pictures of the incident that causes so much of sorrow and pain to them, is it acceptable? Do not apply this question to you alone only, to each their own I would say, what you might find acceptable might not be acceptable to the victim’s family, it’s always prudent to get the consent of the family or the people involved in this kinda situation. Heck, even journalists and reporters have to abide by that Harm Limitation Principles. Maybe not all of them do, but the better ones normally do.
    As I’ve said do not take this a personal attack to you, I am not saying that you haven’t helped in whatever way you can, and please refrain yourself from asking everybody who has debated with you on the tastefulness of the pictures whether have they done anything for the family or not, by them debating that its a morally inept thing to do ( the posting of the picture) with you, they have already in their own way helped the family. Whether or not they are so eloquent in trying to get their messages across is something for you to decide whether it’s acceptable or not.
    Whether or not the pictures portray all the gruesome details, it doesn’t matter, they are still pictures depicting a man’s lost and pain over his now deceased family. Think about it, if you were in his shoes, going through this, but then again you might find it acceptable, but doesn’t mean he would. So do what you think is right, it is your blog, but please handle it with a certain amount of tact too.
    As for the trauma that you’re going through due to the accident, I’m sorry for that. To a certain degree, I do understand, as I have come across deaths and suffering one too many times in my life, maybe what I’m about to say is crude, but it does builds the character, and you’ll get around it.

  560. My goodness some of you readers are pathetic. Its Kenny’s choice to post what he wants. He offered help and tried as best as he could with what he could do. He had his camera and took photos, is that a bad thing? Obviously not. There’s only so much that can be done and not everybody has space to help. Look at the photos and you can see that the situation had already gone on for quite a while with people and help present already.
    Stop being idiotic pricks all high and righteous on what Kenny should do and not. This isn’t your blog and if you want to bitch about what YOUR sense of morality and crap have go do it to people who care.
    Some people are so predictable and narrow-minded. If its something not funny or serious there will always be SOME people that want to create a ruckus. I’m not sure if its the Malaysian mentality or just their own bloated ego yearning to cause the attention.

  561. So many people here are self-righteous and jump on the first opportunity when something controversial comes up. What’s your aim, to shut kennysia.com down?
    Having the post up is his decision. If you don’t want to look at it, simply press the x button. See? Not there anymore.
    Some of you must have written more than 100 comments yourself. Impressive amount of time spent camping on this website.
    Witnessing an accident like this is unpleasant and traumatizing, like Kenny said, he still suffers flashbacks/nightmares about this incident. It affected him, and clearly whoever was involved. The accusations that he does not care is absurd.
    And why don’t everyone get it, that he took pictures AFTER he had helped. He stayed on the scene so he’d give his account of incident to the police. He called the ambulance. You can’t do first aid on dead people. Valid points here! Hello??
    Let it rest.

  562. hey john stu, if u think Kenny should not take those photos, what about those reporters? what about those photos that was published in the English and Chinese newspapers all over the nation and front page photos? why don’t you go back and suck yourself and fuck yourself dry up? i think people like do not deserve to exist. so fuck you!

  563. If i am not on Kenny side – I would think that the post about the Egyptian woman was more fake than this one. At least this was about death and the dangers of a split second mistake in driving, but the woman one was just about another poor woman sitting in another country, the only different was that she had blue eyes. In Malaysia itself you can find lots of old women sitting one streets at 6am, but they have brown/black eyes, so i guess it’s not “haunting”.
    If i am on Kenny side – i respect the way he did not show the license plate number, the way there were no gruesome bits, the way he tried his best to help. Those of you who have not seen an accident right in your face would not understand that at THAT moment, you really have no idea what to do. What is so wrong about taking photos?
    If i am neutral – First of all. It’s KENNY’S BLOG. In case you all didnt realize, a blog is an online diary. Kenny is supposed to write his thoughts and his emotions, his ideas and views. IT”S NOT WRITTEN TO PLEASE you all. Those of you who asked him to remove his post are complete and utter idiots. YOU DON”T LIKE IT? DON”T READ it. HOW simple is that. It’s the same as those idiots commenting on Xiaxue’s blog n stuff. Just because they are famous DOESN”T change the fact that it is THEIR blogs, AND NOT THE PUBLIC’s BLOGS. Those of you who made them famous by reading and voting, you can LEAVE ANYTIME. Leaving shows you don’t support them, staying and reading just shows how oxyMORONIC you all are. Stay and read, but hate it, and spend HOURS commenting and replying comments. HOW LOSER is that. Those of you who read and hate it, then leave bad comments, are like this. You play with a cigarette lighter and burn yourself. You get angry because that lighter was faulty, and the manufacturers were to blame. But instead of throwing the lightter away, you keep using it, then u keep getting burned, and then you keep complaining non-stop about the manufacturers making a lousy lighter. WHO IS STUPID HERE? YOU, or the MANUFACTURERS? DONT LIKE IT

  564. Dear Kenny, The Society of Professional Journalists’ code of ethics offers the following advice, which is representative of the practical ideals of most professional journalists. Quoting directly:

    • Show compassion for those who may be affected adversely by news coverage. Use special sensitivity when dealing with children and inexperienced sources or subjects.
    • Be sensitive when seeking or using interviews or photographs of those affected by tragedy or grief
    • .

    • Recognize that gathering and reporting information may cause harm or discomfort. Pursuit of the news is not a license for arrogance
    • Recognize that private people have a greater right to control information about themselves than do public officials and others who seek power, influence or attention. Only an overriding public need can justify intrusion into anyone’s privacy.
    • Show good taste. Avoid pandering to lurid curiosity.
  565. I’d just completed my volunteering attachment with St John Ambulance Penang. During the posting, me and my friends learnt a lot of basic first aid skills from bandaging to dragging the trolley out, to CPR to driving the ambulance. Our hospitals here in Malaysia do hold Basic Ambulance Care every year where you can learn all the skills including victim extraction in MVA(motor-vehicle accident) cases. Kenny was right to not touch the patient as extracting victim is not an easy job as you need cervical collars, spinal board, half spinal board & etc to avoid spinal cord discontinuation etc. Please visit http://www.sjamemas.org.my/ Our SJAM here in Sarawak is not so active, and I suggest you can join SJAM in Penang and KL as they do provide free lodging. It’s an eye opening experience where you deal with medical, trauma and MVA etc cases everyday. After doing the posting, you will definitely appreciate these volunteers from St John and RC more and also value your life more. Once again, pls visit http://www.sjamemas.org.my/ Thanks Kenny for this opportunity!

  566. just wondering, how come during kenny’s own father’s funeral, no one ask: “wah kenny, grieving but still got time to take photos?” or “kenny, pls remove those photos. it’s insensitive to urself and ur family”.

  567. hmm… i see a debate going on here. lol. some are really ridiculous.
    indeed wat u did was right. Thank God u were there to call for help kenny. 🙂 i think u’re an Angel sent by God(Angel in the form of a human) in order to help that little girl who’s still alive. 😉 Good work!

  568. kenny, u did the right things. a pictures will tell more then a thousnad words.
    at least u sent out a clear messages to all the readers, I want all the readers remember this ” when u drive , please drive safely”
    nobody what this to happen rite..
    condolences to the family.

  569. Hey kenny,
    I’ve been reading some few comments and some are bad as well. Indeed what you was trying to do was good. I appreciate that, as you are one of few malaysians who’d do good no matter what. But, the part where i gotta disagree was taking photographs about it. yes, people do take pictures about accidents, but as a human we are suppose to know our limits. What happened shud stayed there. Please, For our experience?!? What the heck you are talking about, dont accidents happen everyday, reported around the world? and usually its death?
    Just link a photograph of the Borneo post will do. How’d you like if you were related to the driver and a blogger blogged about it. Please remove the pictures. It’s rude.

  570. damn u kenny, shame!
    i’m furious with this post, u’re a shame to any kuchingnite like me.
    u witness this accident and still take pictures of them, without helping. how old r u kenny? u r in mid 20’s for crying out loud, u can’t even think rasional n help them? while only thinking of…”whoah!, this gonna make me even more famous if i post this on my blog”… u even have the nerve to edit all ur pic with “kennysia.com” tag… i’m so fickin’ disappointed in u kennysia, i came here once in a while to read ur blog, but this will b the last time, u really let me down.
    and to those ppl who think this is just another news, well, how do u feel if ur loved ones r in this accident? how wud u feel, if u r thr, bleeding n stuck in the deformed car, how wud u feel kenny? having some1 take frickin picture of u , if u were the 1 stuck inside the car, or bleeding ur way to hell?

  571. I’ve look at the photos taken by Kenny, I don’t classify them as gory. I’ve seen far worst photos taken by our local dailies. For those who are squeamish, there is a very clear ‘warning’ at the beginning. If you don’t like what you see…move one. There are thousand of blogs out there that deals with mundane teenage angst…go read them instead. This is Kenny’s blog on his personal experience…. So let him write what he likes. Enough said!

  572. in plain and simple and cacat Malaysian english, It’s Kenny’s blog. you no like, den please you no read. u don post comment because you also want famous like him. u tink is bad post, you no read the post. you tink kenny is bad person, you no read his blog. you tink he no taste, he use blog to make his ownself popular, then u don make him popular by read his blog. DO U SEE THE PATTERN HERE? YOU DON”T LIKE IT? DON”T READ IT!

  573. By the way the 3 year old girl survived. The uncle of the child is my collegue. My collegues sister was driving the car. She is 3 months pregnant. His mother was sitting on the front passenger side. 3 nieces we’re sitting at the rear seat. Only one of the kid who is 3 years old survived. She did not die. Nuff said.

  574. I have received an e-mail from the sister-in-law of the driver who passed.
    In her own words, “I’m sorry for the negative comments against you on taking pics during the critical situation, frankly, we do understand that nothing can be done and will not blame you for taking pics.”
    She asked me if I know of the name of the man who drove her niece to the hospital, which I don’t. She finished her email by reminding me not to publish her e-mail on my blog, “but you may tell others that we are fine with your blog and thanks to you for helping and with those pics that help, to understand better what had happened.”
    I hope that e-mail is good enough for those who are still passionate and persistent about this issue.
    Understandably, some people might doubt the authenticity of this e-mail. If you ever leave a heated negative comment with a valid e-mail address, I will forward it to you if you request – under the condition that you do not publish it on your blog.

  575. I’ve learnt something about myself in all this- I get very mean when I get mad, and I shouldn’t attack you so vehemently.
    I believe in our innate altruistic nature, especially when we see something so tragic (wait, I think in KK’s Daily Express today, the front page news is this guy had an accident, was still in his car unable to move when this guy came along-and took his wallet!). Anyway, you did what anyone would’ve done i.e. helped as well as you could. However you went below most standards when you took so many pics and posted them all up. That’s the whole point about the argument on this accident.
    I still feel ashamed I got too emotional and called you names. But I hope you seriously consider showing some respect to the dead and their grieved ones.

  576. Kenny, who is the sister-in-law to speak for the dead? So just because she’s ok, its ok now? Besides just because she’s fine with it, being of a simple mind (here I go again)doesn’t mean people in general like pics of how their relatives died posted up by some stranger. Honestly, don’t exploit other people’s tragedies whether for fame or whatever.

  577. Tujuan apa yang anda lakukan tu yg sebenarnya jawabannya HANYA pada anda & Tuhan yang tahu..
    My point of view….anda patut fikirkan apa yang hendak dilakukan sekarang…Just remove or biarkan.
    Anda BANGGA apa yang telah dilakukan, samada betul ke tidak?…
    Adakah anda fikirkan apa pulak PERASAAN/FEELING pada mereka yang bersangkut paut dengan tragedi itu?
    Tanyalah pada diri anda..JIKA gambar kaki budak yang kat photo tu menunjukkan kaki anak saudara anda yang di Australia itu….HOW YOU FEEL?
    Jika salah satu jawaban/SEBAB iaitu anda mengatakan ingin educatekan readers pasal KESELAMATAN JALANRAYA?…BULLSHIT!!…we’re not in the 60&70’s era…..
    JAWAPANNYA OR THE ACTUAL REASON TAKING THOSE PHOTOS STILL ONLY YOU, WHO KNOW THE REASONS OF IT…..JUST USE YOUR HEAD AND THINK!!

  578. WHAT THE HECK ARE YOU ALL DOING?!
    I had it with you people already!!
    I don’t see any problem with taking pictures, sure, it showed little legs and the “HERO” you guys are talking about, SO?! PICTURE SPEAKS A THOUSAND WORDS. IT CAN MEAN ANYTHING. Like what Kenny said, it doesn’t mean that what you think is always right. Tell me, which one of you had guess that the girl in the 7th picture – which the “HERO” held in his arms is NOT the same girl that was sent to the hospital? Most of you might think that that scene was the “HERO” taking the girl to the ambulance. WHO WOULD GUESS THAT IT WOULD BE BRING HER TO GET CHANTMENTS? HAR?!
    Do not question the person WHO IS at the scene. You have NO IDEA what they had been through.
    And why are you all insulting him like that?! “Ohh, Kenny posted this because he wanted popularity in his blog bla bla bla.” HELLO?! WHAT WORLD ARE YOU LIVING IN?! Even if he DIDN’T posted this post, he’d be popular anyway. Why? Because of his blogging skills. You think he need posts like this to make him popular? Then you’re oh so wrong. Read his previous posts, ALL of them and you will see WHY HE’S FAMOUS. People like me, truth, I will take pictures too. It’s my instinct. I will take pictures and put it in my blog. I won’t take pictures of the legs though. Not because of the ethical issues or what you guys are so crazy on. It’s because I FEAR DEATH. And why I will take pictures? Because it’s NOT EVERYDAY you will get to meet accidents like this. You think it’s very fun meeting things like this? Some might will get trauma. But it’s MY daily life. So I’m just blogging about what I HAD EXPERIENCED. SO WHAT’S WRONG?!
    Newspapers had published about it. The families accepted the interviews. NOW one of the family members had allow Kenny to post this. SO NOW WHAT? ANOTHER ARGUMENT SAYING “who is the sister-in-law to speak for the dead?”!! Dude, so you’re speaking for the dead now? It’s THEIR family thing. THEY allowed. So you just shut up. If their family don’t like it they’ll say.
    You people weren’t in Kenny’s shoe. So just READ. If you don’t like them, no I’m not telling you to leave. Just leave a comment. “Kenny I didn’t like you putting pictures like this.” THIS IS FAR MORE ENOUGH. I saw some comments saying that they dislike on what Kenny did(posting this post). They have their point and I think it’s reasonable. However some of the comment REALLY get on people’s nerve. How should I put this… Criticizing. The most recent 1 I read was the what “hor” and “bor” and “wor” comment. =_= that was critizizingly annoying. SOME even claimed to support Kenny by saying this is a good post coz “look at the comments! *winks*” OMG. HOW CRITICIZING THAT IS.
    THE LITTLE GIRL SURVIVED. OK? MORE FACT: THE OTHERS DIED. OK? IT’S A FACT ALREADY. SO JUST STOP THIS. YOU THINK LEAVING CRITICIZING COMMENTS HERE WILL BRING THEM BACK?
    DAMN.
    Just hope the little girl wouldn’t be in a serious trauma.

  579. Sorry to kenny to witness the horrible accident. sad but it’s fate.. just pray for the after life.i think it’s more tragic to be killed by lightning.. my condolences stil.. and i hope you wont feel so bad about the incident, as well as what other ppl said here.. take care and drive safe.. EVERYONE!

  580. i seriously agree with Kei about the part where he said “SO NOW WHAT? ANOTHER ARGUMENT SAYING “who is the sister-in-law to speak for the dead?”!! Dude, so you’re speaking for the dead now? It’s THEIR family thing. THEY allowed. So you just shut up. If their family don’t like it they’ll say. ”
    really true. 123 is such an erm…ok nvm. just, yes, if the family doesnt mind, then WHO ARE THE REST OF YOU TO SPeAK FOR THE DEAD? ANSWER THIS ONE DAMNED QUESTION. IF u died in an accident and Kenny posted the same kind of photos of the accident, with no gruesome bits, no dead people’s bodies, and OBVIOUSLY no where NEAR as bad as the Chinese newspapers photos, not to mention he also was the only one who called emergency, tried to do everything he could to help, and THEn posted on his blog that he was really sad about what happened, WOULD YOU BE UPSET! I WOULDN”T BE!

  581. Aiya, ppl like TTK and the rest who criticise kennysia cannot stand to know he gets to go out with lovely ladies.
    When they cannot jerk off fast enough to release frustration, they let it off in the comments section.
    What they’re really saying is ‘damn you kennysia, I’m damn jealous of you, I can’t stand the sight of you with beautiful girls while I have to jerk off everyday at home’.
    Kennysia really should not entertain them because
    they’re just releasing pent up frustration. It’s good also, as they have no money to get the service of prostitutes they’d probably rape some child if they cannot try to discredit kennysia. haha.
    Those of you who have been reading this blog since day one will never ever believe he is like what the
    negative comments say. Because of the blog, I’d basically say we can catch a glimpse of his personality and character. Mostly happy go lucky
    and funny but can be sarcastic at times.
    Greedy and selfish? Never. Taking advantage of ppl? never. Just my 2million dollars worth. I wonder why Malaysia has so many cheap ppl nowadays, only worth 2 cents. sigh, economy not good.

  582. I think it’s worse if you guys just can’t keep your mouth shut and stop commenting about it already.
    Sometimes, i wonder how did you guys come up with such morally-right behavior when you people aren’t even there yourself to judge it.
    its getting irritating.

  583. bunny, cool it (i can almost picture you twitching-everywhere). Learn to control urself n not be vicious.*sigh* I guess if you don’t get it by now you never will. The point is should we infringe on others just because we have a phone and a blog and we stumble across people in some predicament in public. That’s it, that’s what the argument is all about.

  584. Holy shit. Such people leaving comments out to put you down are the ultimate man. I’m overwhelmed reading the things that they say just to prove to everyone that you’re wrong.
    If I were you, Kenny, I’d go crazy. Gotta give you credit for wading through all the shit and replying to them.

  585. 1stly,my condolences to the young girl and her family.
    2ndly,I really admire how you love to share your point of views and your fun experiences on this blog.
    3rdly,people who criticize for the wrong reasons especially about this post really need to judge about their own selves FIRST before placing any judgement on others.Well,it’s true.
    Lastly,Kenny has said “SORRY” at the very last part of this post.I dunno why some people just dunno how to read or cannot read the last sentence.
    Keep up the good work,Kenny~!

  586. don’t tell me to cool it 123. this comment page is not for your holier than thou should women rule the world kind of rubbish talk that only people who have no friends and want to look intellectual try to talk about. and don’t use the word infringe unless you know what it means. and i hope you realize that when u say “thats what the arguement is all about” you realize that this is a comment page on Kenny’s blog, and not some forum of your own creation. you want to create an arguement? go write you own blog. and please, read what Kei said about you. i am sure the family of the dead needs someone like YOU to help them on infringement and camera phones and people with blogs. at least the sister in law is related and she doesnt mind. are you related?

  587. and i would really like to know when i was being vicious. i think already not saying what i thought of you (123 is a…ok er nvm) was controlling myself. zzz. i guess you are another person who thinks that when ppl type in caps it means they are screaming n “twitching everyhwere”, cannot control themselves and are being vicious. i would like to inform you that sometimes caps are used for emphasis. thanks for your unwanted and much unappreciated concern.

  588. How many of the critics would have Approached the Accident Site and Actually Check whether they could offer assistance??
    Fact is: Most would drive past and GAWK, while many though expressing Sympathy would still view the accident as an encumberance to their Schedules.
    Whichever way you choose to slice it, since Mechanical Failure was not an issue, this accident was caused by “POOR Judgement”, the cause of which is well worth investigating in the interests of PREVENTION. The BEST indication whether to overtake is: If there is ANY Doubt,it is NOT SAFE. And the Running Daytime HeadLights?? Wired into the Ignition, Doesn’t cost anything and REALLY WORKS.

  589. If u guys have been following Kenny’s blog u’ll know wat kind of a person is Kenny! It’s like how u understand a fren! All these while I’ve been a reader of Kenny, and I must admit that sometimes I feel touched reading Kenny’s blog, I can feel he’s a very soft-hearted guy.
    Moreover, you guys werent even in the scenario, how can u all simply make the assumptions? It’s totally stupid to me, BASTARDS!!

  590. One small note:
    If anyone is unconscious in a trauma situation (sustained an injury), DO NOT move the person without first making sure the neck spine is protected. It could be broken and moving it could make matters worse.
    If you’re not sure how, let the next person who knows how do it. Or the ambulance personnel.
    Sarawak Branch of the Malaysian Red Crescent Society is very active. Go learn First Aid please.

  591. Kenny, you’re just wasting your time here defending yourself. I suggest you should go buy a heart of tamtam to boost your vitality!

  592. Kenny, continue with what u r doing there. I fully support you in this discussion. blogger = jornalist in different form.

  593. Keep it up, Kenny! Don tink too much of d negative comments.. they’re jus not happy wif ur popularity. It’s as simple as dat..
    I hope the victims’ family will stay strong.. God bless..

  594. jsut wanna let u know that..
    blood picture is not very good for everyone to post in ur blog..
    ppl accident ald very “cham” but u still can post up those bloody pictures of the accident..
    may i know what is the point u did tat?

  595. Public belongs to everyone. You don’t need permission to release any public picture.

  596. uh about that question
    “Norman has very good manners and moral. Am I right? Hahaha”
    Yes.
    In fact, I am the best.
    *In case you don’t know, it is sarcasm*
    Ok. I am still the best.

  597. poor kenny, getting bombed by the moral police. wish there were politicians in Malaysia with such ‘morals’….

  598. the look on the guy’s face in the last picture summarizes everything. WAT THE FUCK ARE U DOING WITH THAT CAMERA!

  599. Jimmy: LOL!
    123: You are so witty…especially when you mentioned about Bunny twitching everywhere! Haha I love reading what you read because you seem smarter than most of the people here. You know, got substance and you argue your point well.

  603. reminder to parents!!
    never try to overtake a car or drive fast if your family is travelling with u. use car seat for children and make sure everybody is buckled up before driving out and drive safely please.

  604. Dear Kenny,
    All of the passengers died instantly except for one child.
    You should have post a follow up news on this.
    Regards

  605. Dear Kenny,

    You should have posted a follow up news on this.
    Regards

  606. Please don’t blame anyone here. We are in this world for different purpose, just do what you are resposible to.

  607. Ya.. this is the first time I c 700 comments on one post, probably the world record of a blogger. No matter what, the lesson is drive safely.

  608. haha bunny. u were one of the few ppl who didnt use any bad words in your comments and 123 said you are vicious. funny. and i bet ppmint is 123 as well, because his comments were the stupidest and nobody would say they were the smartest unless it wa the same person, i agree with Kei as well when he replied this to 123 “SO NOW WHAT? ANOTHER ARGUMENT SAYING “who is the sister-in-law to speak for the dead?”!! Dude, so you’re speaking for the dead now? It’s THEIR family thing. THEY allowed. So you just shut up. If their family don’t like it they’ll say. ”
    123 should just shut up. what the HELL is he going on about infringement? How bout this guys, if Kenny posted the photos from Chinese newpapers(which are much more gory and much less respectful) on his blog, and then talked about what a horrible accident it was, would you all bash him for posting those photos? no right? then what are you all so uptight about? just because he took his own photos? WTH.

  609. Hi there, I’m a friend of their direct family…can email me your number coz I need to talk to you on the details of the accidents…thanks…

  610. ah, finally… something that will keep the hate away… ppl are concerned about the pictures, but they shouldn’t have anyhow used this opportunity to put you down so badly, they weren’t even focusing on the real issue, most of them just started calling names, including me.
    not defending kenny or anyone in particular, just defending the freedom of blogging, and i believe that if you don’t like it shut up and go somewhere else. because for me, limpeh will say what limpeh want to say, u don’t anyhow tell limpeh what i should say.
    kenny, ganbatte. we still support you one.
    peace out.

  611. wanna drive fast?? or overtake ppl recklessly?? sure you can do it…but…ONLY IF YOU KONW YOUR RIDE WELL..what i mean here WELL is really WELL..not just your average tyre condition,service ETC…but…your torque,your total respond, brake disc tranction,vehicle stability,load quantity etc….with this knowleadge it can save your life while you do speeding….

  612. Hey you idiots, Kenny Sia has emphasized MULTIPLE times : THERE WAS NOTHING HE COULD DO!!! THEY WERE DEAD ALREADY!!! MATI!!! KO!!!! KONK OUT!!!! KICK THE BUCKET!!!
    And I quote Kenny Sia :
    THEY ARE DEAD. YOU CANNOT USE FIRST AID ON A DEAD PERSON.
    You idiots understand? Kenny is not a bad man. They are dead already.
    So if they are dead, what’s the next best thing to do?
    Why, take pictures of their lifeless legs hanging from the car of course! DOH!!!
    Kenny, you’re an idiot. You’re not a news reporter for one, and I’m sure these pictures are not for your personal family albums.
    These pictures are for the sole purpose of putting them up in this blog to drive readership. Please stop talking about how you don’t want this blog to be popular.
    How else can you meet the chicks? 🙂
    There’s nothing wrong with wanting your blog to be popular, hell, anyone with a blog and an ego would want it to be popular whether they would admit it or not. To lie and say you don’t want your blog to be popular is just hypocrisy man.
    C’mon now, bring out those famous coconuts, or do you not want your blog to be popular?
    Please.

  613. Hahahaha, “Pls dun read my blog”, good thank you for chasing people away from Kenny Sia’s blog. Maybe that is how you try to let him achieve the record of the most famous blogger in Malaysia.
    Is that how?

  614. Hey Kenny you are a good hearted guy but i still think you are an real idiot taking so many pictures while you were waiting for whatever, if i am related to the victims and saw you snapping pictures when i arrived i for sure will punch you in the face.

  615. –>–
    What are the odds the little girl is alive today? Not very high, I’d say. If she is alive, what quality of life is she likely to have? She almost certainly has permanent damage from her period of starvation during crucial development, both before and after birth. It is easy to criticise Kevin Carter. Why? Because he took a photo of one starving child among thousands? Let those who send all their spare cash to the needy cast the first stone…
    http://flatrock.org.nz/topics/odds_and_oddities/ultimate_in_unfair.htm

  616. Why do people always see the bad side of things when something happen? Why do you choose to see that these pictures are products of self-ego instead of the tragedy it potray? Maybe you people are retarded coward or something, but honestly to all those who think that these pictures are nothing more than just advertisement to generate traffic, I just want to say, get a life and stop harrassing others.

  617. Suicide of a Pulitzer Winner
    It is tragic that the world has lost a photographer with the talent and skill of Kevin Carter. But it should come as no surprise that he found it difficult to reconcile the peaks and valleys of his career with the suffering and violence upon which it was built. It disturbed him, as it should have. By embarking on a career in photojournalism, Carter set himself apart from the lives of the people he photographed. He chose to be an observer rather than a participant. Carter opted for a moral detachment that most of us cannot achieve and that I would not want to have. Though I can admire his work and courage in the face of danger, I cannot imagine witnessing such violence and human suffering without trying to intervene. Perhaps, in the end, Kevin Carter could not either.

  618. come on let’s us discuss/quarrel/talk cock more so we can reach 1000+ comments and set a new malaysia or world record for most comments in a blog! gogogo Malaysia Boleh and Fuck you Kenny!

  619. kenny no need to be to upset with…for sometimes i had observe malaysian behavior…interesting species i may have conclude…especially on moral case..everybody are acting as holy as possible..but the fact is all are nothing but busybody with nothing best to do…put it in your shoes kenny..only those brace with such experience know what to do..belief me i used to be in your shoes but that was way before blogging ever exist.
    the most i always met is the sudden road accident at highway road side.guess what?…some of these ppl here may actually cause the traffic jam as they intention to watch is stronger then drive i mean much much stronger..and none of them i say none of them lend a hand to ease the Sintuation..
    then some can even take out the phone to snap but inside the moving car..
    what the difference?? bashing people hard work in the net,watching the injured people inside the car.some more take it to mamak session or kopitiam and announce it to fren ?? you yourself also kenny as you decribe, only you act it without your notice…get it??

  620. You faggort!!!! You CCB!!
    How could you use the poor victims as a tool for your own selfish publicity gains????????
    I hope the ghost of the lady driver come and huant you every night!!! Since you like them so much!!

  621. People out there, to show your respect to the deceased family, please stop the blamming replies…no matter how hot is the argument, you can’t bring the dead to live.
    Knowing the deceased family personally and had spoken to Kenny, I don’t think it’s fair to come to other people’s place (Kenny’s blog) and query their lifestyle (blogging styles) when Kenny is there trying to help out on all possibles, he ain’t the mighty God, don’t expect he can play many roles in this kind of situation.
    I’ve been in 2 life threatening car accidents myself, learning from experience, seriously there’s nothing Kenny can do, staying calm and be rational is what I’ve learned.
    I took photos at my own car accident scene too while waiting for ambulance to pick me and my mum up, to me, journaling or documenting the incident first handed is the best testimony I’ll ever have before the tower come and unplugged the plates number and tow the car of the redlight running idiot (whom ramped into my driver side with a speed of 120kmh) away…before even the traffic police is there!!!
    I got people taking pictures of me, my mum and the car wreck too, AS INJURED VICTIM, WHAT ELSE CAN I ASK FOR HELP FROM THOSE PEOPLE THAT’RE TAKING PICTURES OF US WHEN AMBULANCE IS ON THEIR WAY???…for those who blame on the photos, do read it clear.
    Spoken to the family, the husband wish to thank those people out there for their concern and condolences.
    Last but not least, the only survivor (4 years old girl) is out of ICU and had been transfer to paediatric ward, she is fine now. I shared my heartfelt grievance on this sad incident.

  622. so far, based on the comment log, kenny’s seems more interested in justifying his actions and doing damage control than any sincere desire to understand the rage of fellow bloggers, or even a scrap of contriteness.
    yeah yeah you tried to help right? *rolls eyes*
    go ahead and surround yourself with sycophants. i hope you choke yourself on your own self-rightnessness.

  623. May the souls of the deceased rest in peace…God must had love them so much that He decided to take them Home to a more peaceful place to live with Him eternally…
    May God bless their souls…amen.

  624. Wow, good job Kenny Sia! You sure are a professional in taking such good quality photos in times like that. Ever consider being a full time journalist instead?
    I also suggest you do more follow-up on the girl in the hospital. Go and take more of the photos and post them in your blog. An exclusive interview with the deceased family would be enlightening! You should be able to generate more hits on ur site!
    Maybe you might even get the attention of the government and recieved some “Rakyat Contoh” award or something…

  625. First of all, angelfire, it doesn’t take using bad words to make a person vicious. Digest that?
    Second, I swear I am not Ppmint (thnx ppmint! You’ve got intellect) but I think you are bunny disguised as angelfire! So cheap!
    3rd, this blog is open for comment and discussion so don’t begrudge me my rights to state my views here. Even Kenny doesn’t.(I do salute him for not censoring comments. I don’t think he does, do you Ken?)
    4th the POINT is about infringement of privacy. Even Madonna would sue you if you posted pics of her tits hanging out.
    5th Kenny got permission AFTER he posted the pics and the hooha.
    6th I suppose Kenny just revealed his character when he said what’s wrong with posting those pics when the Chinese newspaper posted them too. I guess its ok if you want to drop to the level of the Chinese newspapers who are famed for tasteless, gory pics and irresponsible reporting-all in the name of informing the public but meantime making more sales, which is basically the real intention.

  626. come on let’s us discuss/quarrel/talk cock more so we can reach 1000+ comments and set a new malaysia or world record for most comments in a blog! gogogo Malaysia Boleh!!
    Just trying to make this happen

  627. 123 so lame. madonna wud sue u if u put a pic of her tits hanging out? ok la. but the relatives said they don mind kenny putting up those photos, so what has madonna got to do wif it. and there is no faces to be seen also. sue what oh, number plate also dont have. lame shit. u are also dam lame cos u said angelfire is bunny, when she said ppmint is you. you dono how to come up wif ur own insult meh. bunny insult u are ppmint also dam stupid alredy, u wan use back the stupid insult.
    somemore now u r using kenny comment page to argue wif bunny, so stupid la both of you. want argue go argue sumwhere else la, wasting kenny blog space only. He is a good guy, want to express condolences for the family of dead, you don’t know whats going on in kenny head u simply wanna scold him. idiots.
    somemore u say Chinese newspaper make sales, so kenny getting money for this post also meh. make point also cannot make properly. rubbish no brain idiot.
    u swear u r not ppmint, no proof also, u also so cheap la. Why don u just do what Kei said n SHUT UP. and if bunny still wan to reply then he is idiot also.

  628. Hey Kenny, I hope you’re feeling better. I really don’t think you did anything wrong. Been quite an avid reader and appreciate you sharing your thoughts and views on this blog on so many things.. If there’s anyone unhappy, they really should just stop visiting your blog. Cos if they’ve been reading the things you write, they should know better. You’re not a bad guy.
    God Bless. 🙂

  629. its funny how the not so intellectually developed people continue to visit this site even though they are extremely upset abt the things you write and what they are seeing in this blog. They return to give you more ‘hits’? to get even more irritated and upset? or they simply have too much time on their hands? maybe its becos they feel too much an injustice not to express their morally elevated thoughts and comments. it is good that you have the permission of the family to publish the photos on your blog. now those people can be silenced. i am reminded very much myself to be a safer driver on the roads.. esp after seeing visually how bad an accident like this could be. continue to create awareness and give reminders like these (though unfortunate)

  630. Frankly I don’t understand what u’ve written. Is that Chinese or English?Or Chinglish? Whatever, I don’t want to respond anymore to ppl who can’t take an argument and tell their ‘opponents’ to SHUT UP. I’m not wasting my time; you’re not worth it.

  631. World peace.. cheers!! This is a record breaking with 700+ comments!!!

  632. pictures of accidents and gore fests are published everywhere… why would this make any difference? really? it just creating awareness and telling the world that : “hey, stuff like this does happen, man. becareful out there.”
    whats so wrong about that?

  633. Hey, whose using my name?!! get your own animal….
    May I suggest a dog or a pig, but I think the dog’s taken.

  634. I’m beginnin to tink some ppl (123, Edmund, Ppmint) are here to gain popularity by getting ppl to write to them and not reali interested in wat u write, Kenny.. thus d ongoing bombardment, u tink?
    Yet, not a word from these ppl sending their condolences to the victim’s family. Sad, isn’t it?

  635. sigh.. done slamming kenny around? is there anything else to argue? I suppose you thrive on pressing the refresh button on your pc just to see whether anyone replied to the comment (-___-)”

  636. For those who shoot kennysia, why don’t u think to help out the girl family? and stop shooting him? I know he’s trying his best for everything.
    Let say, if you are there, what will you do? remove the gal from honda civic? use your hand and touch your heart before you answer. He’s trying his best. Just be understanding. First time when i read this topic, i feel unhappy also. Why kenny snap the picture.. But after he explained everything and i understand his condition.
    Please guy, learn forgive and forget. You know what “karma” is? Dun jealous of ppl. Think about yourself before you shoot ppl. Especially kennysia.is.idoit

  637. firstly, condolences to the family.
    Secondly, in the last pic, is the Ambulance comming or leaving?

  638. haha! but u reply wat! so u come back here check n make Kenny more famous. hahaha. stupid 123. summore is not I tell u shut up, it’s Kei ask u shut up. dono how to read, summore reply then say waste time, so apek. see what OS said la!

  639. if you guys don’t like the post..don’t read lor. Don’t visit this blog la. U all make so much noise..mouth can’t shut like a chicken backside.
    You all say kenny should do this do that..if you all were in shoes that time..you all will be freak out also la. All talk big only..
    To Kenny: You did what u thought was right. Nobody should judge your actions whether they are right or wrong. Let God judge you for your actions. Just ignore those bastards who can’t keep their chicken backside mouth shut=)
    Childish people

  640. Howdy folks, you know what i can summarize from this enteries, image and all the funny comment, get a freakin Samsung X820, it’s good and reliable. Versatile and crystal clear sharp image.

  641. I agree with Dansel.
    Do not judge others while you do like to be judged. Kenny has done everything he possibly could at the point of time the incident happened.
    There was simply nothing else he could do.
    My condolences go to the family.
    Thank you Kenny for deliver the public awareness of drive safely. I got your message. Keep up the good work. You have me by your side.

  642. Samsung X820, it’s not only good and reliable, Versatile and crystal clear sharp image…
    “The Samsung X820 is one of Samsung’s Ultra series of superslim phones, and at just 7mm thick it’s the thinnest of the Ultra series, and the thinnest mobile in the world at launch!”
    sources :http://www.mobile-phones-uk.org.uk

  643. Walou ah! of all the matters, Samsung X820 made publicised.. good eh!, I want to change my handphone to Samsung X820. Thank You People!!

  644. Blog : A website on which an individual or group of users produces an ongoing narrative.
    I guess the above definition says it all. Its kenny’s blog, and he has every right to indite/show whatever he wishes too.
    And honestly, will we even be able to understand the entire situation, if the pictures weren’t posted?
    Besides, read his explanation ( even though I don’t think he needed to explain to such mofos ), before jumping into any form of accusation.
    I pray that the little girl’s still alive.

  645. to all the bastard out there(especially kee, chicken…..),
    get a life. If u dun like this blog dun read it. No one force u. U just wanna be famous by commenting cos u urself outcast by the society as trash. Dun envy at other ppl.
    This blog is just an educational purposes on the consequences/experience of an accident. I think those ppl who actually complaining are those who uncivilized or shld i call them stupid.
    My experience in civilized country like US and Europe countries ppl stop over and lend a hand. Not like malaysian/Trash(Yeah i called u as Trash) just passed by. Didn’t even lend a hand.

  646. I don’t think Kenny did anything wrong at all.
    This entire post is a post about his feelings when he encountered upon the accident. How he feels, how he is sorry for all the victims. It is done in a sombre, tasteful manner. It doesn’t have any traces of disrespect.
    So why all the fuss?

  647. now only I noticed that there are close to 800 comments…Fui Yoh!!!
    When is it going to be 1000 comments?

  649. Hey all, kenny got new entry la.. go read his new entry left this blog alone. Stop here b4 the number reaches 800.

  650. LOL i dont get why people are so angry about
    Kenny can post anything he want since is his BLOG.. remember ITS NOT YOUR BLOG nobody call u to VIEW it.Its a daily life of a Person that got nothing to DO WITH U.. that was da purpose of a blog!
    Back then when blogs arent so popular they are often use to stay in touch with friends and families.. which is usually not open for strangers
    he started by posted a few post which is interesting and funny then he got famous its not like he expected it.. then ? does he need to continue make u laugh ? does he need to post something “according to ur LIKING” ?
    Kenny is blooging for His life not for YOUR interest!
    i guess u all treat kennysia.com like an entertainment which is real bad as he has rights too
    i too have posted accidents/robbery cases in my blog too..i dont see mine got flamed lol!
    well its daily life and when it happens u juz blog about it.. its the closest thing since diary..
    why there is so many ppl screaming like a baby because kenny juz posted something that didt interest u ?
    well to those ppl who dislikes the post well its your freaking problem man.. go complain it to the moral society or go sue kennysia.com for posting “His Private daily Life” LOL
    hey come on la u dont like ? just dont read ? and please get a life LOL
    Kenny has his freedom to post! dont be such a narrow/un-modern minded noob like ur grandparents.. pathetic oldies toughts lol!!
    to those who complain do u know what is happening to u now ? im very sure that u are either a kennysia.com fanatic or a jelous nerd who cant be famous
    im sure this what ur heart says “KennySia is my only source of entertainment.. he CANNOT post something Not funny and Disgusting.. So i must insult him and Complain.. i must spam his Comment Box becz his life is My Life so i should tell him what to do with his Blog too. SO conclusion is His blog is my Blog he sud post what i want” right ? kenny suppose to listen to u whinners right ? lol
    LOL grow up man! Its the 21st century newbies!

  651. wow! The negative comments here given… speechless. I feel sorry for you kena shot left and right. In life, we will never satisfy all the peoples needs, thoughts, opinions and point of view.
    Look at picture #2. Did the photographer help out?
    http://www.time.com/time/yip/2006/
    Yes! The photographer help out capturing the dreadful moments that happen that we didn’t know or might never seen before.
    I think u did a great job capturing the moment there and then let ppl know about it thru those pictures. I still see people came out helping.
    Pls don’t let those comments pull you down. Just look at the bright and let go. 🙂 God bless you!

  652. to TTK: yeah.
    “BOLD WORDS NORMAN, A PLOY TO SHAMELESSLY GAIN HITS FOR YOUR SITE? Shame on you. Why? Don’t have enough hits for NuffNang? They are not paying you enough? Let me give you a tip, learn to write proper English and sentences before you learn how to be the next celebrity blogger.”
    Correct. I’m not gonna defend myself. (:.
    F.Y.I: I don’t use NaffNang. And I’m not matured. Guess my age.

  653. Wah!! This is getting out of hand. I’m with Kenny on this.
    Like the tag of this blog, “When Routine Isn’t Exactly Normal” this blog is about stuffs that’s extraordinary in Kenny’s everyday routine life. So he has the right to blog about the accident. Cos it’s his blog.
    The pictures here are just pictures of a normal car accident you’ll get to see in everyday paper. To put it here is a good reminder to the rest of us to be careful on the road.
    The right to put these pictures here? If Kenny do not have the right to who will have the right to? You think the jounalist actually ask for permission before publishing those pictures in the newpaper? No they never do. Unless it’s an interview and they wanna publish picture of the person else it’s not require at all. Journalists dun have so much time.
    About what to do when you encounter an accident? Kenny did his best with during that state using good common sense. If you think you can do better well think again cos thinking and actually acting is two different things. Read it here on what to do http://www.wisegeek.com/what-should-i-do-if-i-encounter-a-car-accident.htm
    Gambate, Kenny.
    ps: Unlike certain ppl. I dun have so much free time so can’t write longer comment. ;P

  654. Basically, I feel that the need for Mr Kenny Sia to post up the pictures and highlight on this solemn event that took place was for us to sympathise with the victim(family) and if we happen to know them we will be able to contact Mr Kenny Sia for help. Also, as “bystanders” like us now, surely we’ll feel upset about this tragic accident, and of course, be more than willing lend a helping hand. If he hasn’t posted about this, would we even know about this accident and raise the alertness for people to help?I doubt so, unfortunately.
    Look, this post along has garnered say, 8oo+ viewers’ attention? Or maybe less than that since that chicken fella has been posting non-stop.
    Review all the comments, many said that god bless them, i’ll pray for them.Isn’t this a form of helping already? All thanks to Mr Kenny Sia.
    Kindness begets kindness, I’m sure all that prayers would do help.
    This story as posted also make us, yes every single one reading, to know life is unpredictable and we should treasure every moment out there. So stop reprimanding Mr Kenny Sia.
    rock on with this cool blog(:
    your avid reader.

  655. Please show some heart by removing this blog, it’s been in here long enough. Imagine if you’re a family member, relative or close friends coming across this blog…how would you feel? Please show some respect to the deceased and symphathy to the grieving family.
    Also, why don’t you contribute whatever $ you make from this blog to the family.
    Do the right thing Kenny.

  656. Kenny Sia! You are a really horrible person. I bet you are seeking controversy just to make your blog more popular. Don’t argue with me. I already know it’s true.
    Let me teach you should you should do, Kenny Sia. As Malaysia’s most popular blogger, you should go watch my favourite movie of all time… SPIDERMAN SATU! Got one scene there where his uncle is dying and he said to him, “Parker, WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!!!”
    Wah! That is like so inspiring ok!
    On top of that, I seriously think FAME must have gotten through your head!
    I tell you what, Kenny Sia. WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!

  657. shut the fcuk up lar you all. don’t you feel tired keep barking non-stop like that??? swtz. if anyone of you despise the way kenny handle his blog then just GET THE HECK OUTTA HERE. noone will give a damn bout it.
    dont just blah blah blah when you are not at the real scene. dont be so sure of everything and dont act like oh-i’m-great-but-you-are-not. it’s freaking irritating. i think kindergarten kids can think wayyyy more rational than you dumbass.
    STOP criticizing kenny sia for nothing!!!!!

  658. OI WTF
    U CRAZY PPLS
    WHY SUDDENLY TALKING ABOUT RACE NOW?! GILA KA.
    IF YOU ARE CHINESE THEN U MENGSIASUIKAN CHINESE LA.
    GET LOST LA!! BODOH!!
    Good Malays and Chineses and Indians and people from other races, ignore the the bodohs.

  659. condolences to the family members of the victims and may God bless the souls of those who didn’t survive.
    for the little girl who did : may you have the strenght to continue on living. you are given a second chance in life, i am sure your family wants you to make the best of it. pray to God (no matter which religion you are in) and He will give you strenght.
    i’m sadden with the news. the pictures and what kenny wrote was definately a wakeup call for us drivers. although some might think he shouldn;t take the pixs in the first place, i must give kenny the credit for not revealing the victim’s faces and the car’s plate number.
    at least he’s good enuff to do that! some ppl might even take the opportunity to reveal EVERYTHING and then post it vial email and spread it like wildfire (like the irritation forward mail/junkmails we always get).
    you ppl should count your blessing that he didn’t do that!!
    kenny : alto, it might be wise to limit the number of pixs u posted in, do hang in there. i could understand what u felt. my friend lost a friend recently, alto she was a trained first aider and an experienced climber and fairly a good swimmer, she was helpless when a friend drown in w whirlpool recently.
    things are different when u are there, at the scene. she did what she could do at the time, call for help and help do cpr when another person managed to pull the victim (victim was trying to save 2 girls from drowning). listening to her story and reading tru yours kinda made me understand the situation.(i helped a guy with a head injury before and i can say, it was hard too coz ppl kinda helpless on what to do – if they move the person, it might worsen the situation..)
    and you racist prick out there! shut up and keep your remarks in your own blog or make up your own racist page!
    although the goverment do help the malays a lot, maybe its time for you to brush up your history why its done.
    yes, sometimes its not fair. i admit some dont deserve the help. but its there, and in time, it might change. for now, just live with it. be happy that you still have the opportunity to do what you want to do and live in a peaceful country.
    if you don’t like it, leave. easy as that.
    btw, i’m a malay and i have lots of chinese and indian friends that i’m close with. the knowledge i’ve gained tru understanding their culture and religion is priceless!
    perhaps, thats what you should do : learn.

  660. Kenny, why don’t you close this post, or remove all comments, or block anymore new comments? This post is already starting a racial war.

  661. TO shocked:
    :O
    I am just shocked that everyone is so sad about this particular girl in this particular accident. There’re lots of traffic accidents out there, I don’t see why all these commenters have to feel so sad for this one girl. Furthermore, I don’t think many of them know this girl.
    And, I am not being nonchalant about this. Seriously, do you read the newspaper about car accidents and write “My condolences” for every accident?
    And as for the Aids thing, donating money would help to raise funds for research for a cure for aids, so eventually, when there is one, lot’s of lives would be saved. In what way is that not saving/preventing loss of lives? And anyway, it was merely an example.

  662. and to all the racist commenters:
    Grow up, not all Malays are like that. I’m Chinese but I know tonnes of Malays with a good heart. Don’t generalise your opinions just on statistics. And if they can’t eat pigs, so what? Does it really matter? That’s their religion. Not yours.
    And you should know that not all Malays are Muslims.
    And what’s with the “lets have a race war.”?
    Take a look at your country’s history, there are grave consequences during racial riots. Read up on your history textbook or something. I’m only a 15-year-old kid, but I really wonder how people can get to saying things like that.
    Every race has it’s nice side. You shouldn’t generalise a race just because of one or two experiences.

  663. FUCK THE LOT OF YOU ASSHOLES!!! Hypocritic dick suckers!!!
    We Love Kenny Sia!!!
    Shit happens. Not his fault.

  664. you guys only noe how 2 talk all those stupid bullshits.
    you asked kenny why did he took all the picS?he DID replied u guys,and what did u guys do? shoot him more and more?
    scolding him )*&@*#&^@(#_@#)( aren’t gonna help any1.so fun meh to scold people like that?
    if let say 1 day u face an incident like this,then u post it in ur blog,just wanted 2 warn the public 2 drive carefully,den suddenly saw all these sibeh gao comments. u like meh?
    to the ppl who posted bad comments,instead of posting bad comments about why did kenny took the photos,why in d world didnt he offered 2 fetch the girl with his car to the hospital,why is he acting such a hero,and even “suck in ur stomach and show ur chest” (or something like that) , why don u guys just leave a comment like..
    “Deepest condolences”
    and leave?
    I’m saying this cuz i think its really sad,that, over 800 comments were posted, but can you guys really count,what type of comments were left the most?
    Condolences type? or bad ones?
    gawd…please la… *sigh*
    Last but not least,
    Deepest condolences to those involved in the accident.
    p/S: new topic? racism? *sigh*

  665. actually, i think, there is slightly too many pics.. and i dun think the picture of the little girl’s leg is very bad or anything.. it actually let us reli tink of such consequences of speedin or over taking. and yea, y blame kenny? i bet 75% ppl who pass by ignore it.. who would care to stop by and help? those ppl who talk as if theyre better, would u? sheesh la.sharing it wif us is not wrong cuz i tink more ppl read his blog then newspaper like me, thats how i come to noe it. it wud remind others la. so if u got nth good to say, dun tear ppl down. hav good manners lah. scold here that for wad.reli man.nth beter to do than to critisiz othr ppl blog. dun like dun read lor. nobody ask u to wad.
    as for kenny, mayb not too many pics. juz an opinion. do wad u think is correct before God.at the end of the day, u are accountable to God. dun ned to mind those ppl who only noe how to talk.
    =)

  666. Ok this is crazy! I felt pretty shocked that under this enormous 800 over comments, i see people feeling sorry and then there are people goin nuts. Hell, i thought it was all about the accident. And then came the race… what has race have anything to do with this article? So if you all are damn racist, don’t hau lien writing skills lar…aiyo… so only know how to comment about em’ on the World Wide Web. Living in a country that is so darn peaceful, you wish war could happen…
    Don’t let one stupid malay, whoever that is, to bring us all down. Oopss did say stupid? 😛
    Anyway, the whole point here is, there are the useless malays, good malays & clever malays. & it goes the same to all the other race. Be it chinese or malay or indian or whatever cheng you are….we are all only human & human tend to fucked up big time.
    So let em talk. Let em be a racist. So what if they started the racism & it hurt your eyes.
    I’m thinking this is coming from a typical 15-16 year olds who tend to think this whole lot is funny.
    It is all very not funny for us civilised chinese and malays!! This is the country your daddy earn big bucks to put u all through grammar school to be able even to read ABC.
    We all should be ashamed for all this comments. I’m 25 and im ashamed at my anger as well. I’m only human. I feel the pain, the disgust, the shock u all felt….
    So come on guys, we came to KennySia’s blog because we appreciate his talents not as a chinese,malay or whatever but as a human being. FYI, appreciate doesn’t necessary means like or love or adore. Im no Kennysia fan, yet i can appreciate his blogging. So why cause the blogger much difficulty and make him feel sorry for his pictures taken. All he wanted to do was share it with all of us….
    We all could debate all year long if we want to. But he could actually delete all our comments and pretend nothing happened & we’ll see how this will benefit all of us?

  667. 我发觉很多人都在责怪,但是换个角度去想想,只是学过急救,并没有临场经验的,换作是你在当下,我想,大多数的人也不知道该怎么给予援手吧? 然而那些责怪他的人,一百个人里面有多少个人可以做到?他没有袖手旁观,还是有拨电求救。他没有近拍车内情况,对于死伤者还是有一份尊敬。他承认他学过急救但是当下没办法给予援手,那些责怪他的人,你们又是否知道随便移动严重受伤者是会造成死亡。在最后他也道歉了,难道他爱莫能助的心情会不比你们这些责怪他的人更为清楚吗?

  668. seriously, all of us should juz shut up. how often u see someone in shirt and tie stop and help in an accident? those who actually help are those blue collars. so they might not even read this posting. all of us ‘uneducated’ white collars doing here is merely ‘zhi shang tan bin’ (talking war on a piece of paper = talk cock)
    btw, where is the racist post?

  669. Guys lets give him a break.
    People react differently to one situation.
    so lay it to the rest and move on.
    Kenny helped and thats important.
    Tc everyone

  670. Plzzzz stop all this and get a life!!!
    U guys are way too free to post those stupid comments here….

  671. Yet another accident involving the innocents. God bless.
    I am sure everyone on scene were shaken & did their best to help in every other way. I dont get the fuss for capturing photos. kenny is a journalist of his own kind- reporting and sharing with everyone basically. Maybe these photos can serve as evidence of some sort in police reports, and the generative blessings & prayers from all readers to the girl’s family are already a rare act of kindness from us all.
    I wished we could all instead fearlessly gather voices on national issues such as toll fare hike!

  672. aiyoh…what did i miss…God bless him or her soul. most of the time we fail to see what reality is. it’s great that you’re showing us what we fail to know…
    and u’re popular enough to have ppl read your stuff, if your entries aren’t bold in its own way, nobody would bother to read and you won’t be msia’s most popular blogger. i don’t believe u’re capturing this just to sell a story to make urself more popular.
    there will be haters, there will be lovers!
    i’m a lover! 🙂

  673. KKenny Sia! You are a really horrible person. I bet you are seeking controversy just to make your blog more popular. Don’t argue with me. I already know it’s true.
    Don’t you understand?! As Malaysia’s most popular blogger, you should know that just like in that movie Spiderman One, “WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!”
    On top of that, I seriously think FAME must have gotten through your head!
    Let me teach you should you should do, Kenny Sia. As Malaysia’s most popular blogger, you should go watch my favourite movie of all time… SPIDERMAN SATU! Got one scene there where his uncle is dying and he said to him, “Parker, WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!!!”
    Wah! That is like so inspiring ok!
    I tell you what, Kenny Sia. WILL SOMEBODY PLEASE THINK OF THE CHILDREN!?!?!

  674. fucking kennysia, u have to watch out for ur fucking life, u will get kill one day, u think i am kidding with u, i am planning to kill some useless fuck like u that just bullshit everyday

  675. I dont care what anyone says I think the Ferrari 360 is a beautiful car.
    (who says i have to stay on topic)

  676. Some idiots really have nothing better to do. Why waste your time and effort to kill Kennysia la…his father dead already…kasi chan la…

  677. its not like kenny will get agitated by ‘you orang punya comment’…anyway, that’s alot of pic you have taken there.i notice sth thou.that only malay will help out during emergency but not other races.typical malaysian situation.

  678. Kenny, I m a 40 yrs old mom and I have been following your blog after a friend told me about a famous M’sian blogger, I thought well ok why not read and find out what’s 2day young blogger are blogging about and I tell you ever since then I was stuck to it. Your blog entertains, funny at a time, and at sometimes, make people chocked with laughters. Your work is good and you are creative. Like you say, they old and young even children are reading your blog. So keep up your work and all the best.

  679. why NOT take photos?
    those pictures can be a reminder to those who drive aggresively on road nowdays.
    what could really happen when u make the wrong judgement.
    i think kenny has done the right thing.. he called the emergency number, remember??

  680. you people are too free…
    this is kenny’s blog.
    he has his own set of objectives for the blog. dont try and tell him wat to do.
    dont like it, den just leave.
    dont judge him.
    because, your judgement just reflects how you see the world- cynical, opportunistic and selfish.
    and your cruel view of kenny, just reflects your own lack of cultivation and compassion.
    give him the benefit of the doubt.
    why do you all like to believe that he has ulterior motives…?
    he has always given his best to the readers.
    why believe in the worst of him just because you cannot see things from his point of view.
    Kenny, i think you are trying really hard… and i really feel for you… hope this will subside soon.. post more new entries so everyone can move on =)

  681. I’ve lost someone dear in an car accident before. Thank you kenny, for sharing experience like this with us.
    I dunno why the first idea that came out from certain readers was ‘WHY WERE U TAKING PICTURES?’ .
    narrow minded.
    不要以小人之腹度君子之心。

  682. Heartfelt condolences and prayer goes out to the family.
    There is a lot for us to learn from this tragedy, and how people react to it.

  683. condolences to the family members of the victims and may God bless the souls of those who didn’t survive.

  684. condolences to the family…
    Guys i dont find anything wrong with kenny taking the pictures and writing this blog. I believe there must have been good hearted ppl who have called the hospital or do something to help the poor girl and also the family. Thanks to Kenny for writing all this I’m sure the deceased feel grateful toward his entry. =)
    **Be mature and dont be so narrow minded**

  685. you guys are such blockheads.
    geddamnit leave this guy alone!
    you dont like the way his blog goes then DONT READ THEM. no one pays you to read right?
    SHEESH ROCK ON KENNY. PAY NO MIND TO THOSE CHICKEN HEADS

  686. Kenny Sia! You are a really horrible person. I think you are doing this just to look for attention. Don’t argue with me. I already know it’s true.
    Don’t you understand?! As Malaysia’s most popular blogger, you should know that just like in that movie Spiderman One, “WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!”
    On top of that, I seriously think FAME must have gotten through your head!
    Let me teach you should you should do, Kenny Sia. As Malaysia’s most popular blogger, you should go watch my favourite movie of all time… SPIDERMAN SATU! Got one scene there where his uncle is dying and he said to him, “Parker, WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!!!”
    Wah! That is like so inspiring ok!
    I tell you what, Kenny Sia. You write until like that. Not scare ISA come and catch you ah!?
    I mean… In Spiderman One, Uncle Ben is like GOD + CONFUCIOUS + OPRAH + JUSTIN all combined into one. He said… “WITH GREAT POWER COMES GREAT RESPONSIBILITY!”
    Wow. I just had an orgasm saying that out loud.

  687. Kenny,
    I didn’t realise that there were 800+ comments already when I turn to your Blog which your entry said 700+. Normally I don’t bother with the comment on your Blog, but this one is an exception. i feel sad for you as some of the comments was quite A ‘Kana Sai’ comment.
    I have been through your situation before and sometimes it’s quite difficult to know what to do when you are right there at that moment. The accident we[my friend & I] witnessed and stopped to help was not as bad as yours as there wasn’t any casualties [to my knowledge] and as a peviously trained and certified first aider by St John Ambulance SMKBL, there wasn’t much we can do as we were not the professional first aider. Besides, the first thing we were taught was to check for danger, then check who is still alive and preserve the life of the victim [using first aid] until professional care arrive. One way to preserve the life was NOT TO TOUCH OR MOVE the victim as the person who did it might cause more damage to the victim. But I know this can be quite difficult because some paliah people want to HELP and bring to the hospital a.s.a.p. Sometimes these people with no medical background [incl. me] don’t realise that during transit, we might have caused more damage. Telling you what i learn from my first aid course only lah, no need to bomb me sacarstically for teaching you 1st aid lesson.
    So the point/opinion being, Kenny has done nothing wrong by helping what he did, that’s all he can do anyway. By posting the pictures in his blog to get higher ratings or hits or not, it doesn’t matter to me. It’s information/news to me. I don’t think Kenny is so mean that he intends to make money out of this entry. Kennysia.com has been an informative site for me to relate to Kuching for a few times.
    So to those who just want be seen or heard by kenny’s 20K+ reader that he/she HATE Kenny by posting meaningless comments [I dont thinks its even a comment, its more like insults to Kenny], my friend told me once, his C.O. said this this when he was caught beign naughty in the NS: GIVE YOU A SLAP, TURN ONE ROUND AND GO BACK TO YOUR FATHER’S SPERM.

  688. Kenny…
    Ignore these CHILDISH , NARROW MINDED, IMMATURE jerks who only know how to criticize people.
    Instead of feeling angry or disturbed, we should feel PITY for them.
    PITY that they do not have a life to live such that the only thing they could do in life is to write silly heartless comments here to attract people’s attention.
    Why do they need this attention? Because they are super duper infamous in real life hence the only place they can attract people attention is right here in your blog.
    DAMN PATHETIC right?
    *tsk tsk tsk*
    I feel equally sorry for them and the victims of the accident.
    XD
    So, cheer up Kenny!
    I am always here to support you!
    Gambatte!

  689. I love kennysia.com! 🙂 Support you will the end of life!

  690. when i’m reading this blog at the same time i’m having my lunch…OMG..i just cant continue eating after seeing those pics…feel very sad to the family. i found that those pics taken from many different angle..why kenny still have such mood to choose nice angle to get ‘NICE’ pic??

  691. Hi Kenny
    When I first read this entry, I thought of nothing wrong with it
    Still think it is
    Support you

  692. It’s gonna be 1000 comments by tomorrow…
    more more comments, guys..
    I still read kennysia.com anyway.

  693. Fuck you mahai people. Talk so much for what?! Like la you can save them! Kenny is doing his right thing and stop complaining so much la. Kenny,no need explain to those dickless people wan. They eat until full nothing to do come and say something more saddening. In accident,you cannot blame anyone. He has already helped! If you heartless people see this kind of situation,I don’t think you’ll even call the police/ambulance but press ur oil and go! Stop giving those comment laa!
    Kenny has did the right thing. And that’s the fact already. Eh,the victim’s family don’t even mind about anything,and how come YOU ppl nothing connection with the victim still wan complain so much? Annoying la!

  694. good for you that you’ve managed to contact the family and was given consent to publish.
    that should shut up of those idiots above.
    my condolence to the family, hope all is good with the young girl.

  695. Camera used to take those shots = RM8000
    Computer used to produce the blog = RM2000
    A poignant, however disturbing entry = RM12.50
    Having so many idiots writing in irrelevant comments on a perfectly produced entry with good intentions = PRICELESS….!!!
    Somethings money can’t buy……for everything else, there’s http://www.Kennysia.com

  696. Condolences to the family and I hope that the young girl is well. (Am not going to read 900+ posts)
    And to all the people bashing Kenny Sia for just doing what any proper journalist would do, stop being self-righteous bastards and get your heads out of your asses. A blogger is practically an amateur journalist not bound by any traditional news corporation. He’s just doing what he should be doing. Contacting emergency is good enough. Leave the life-saving to the professionals – as said many many times already, moving injured people without proper training may injure them further and potentially cause complications further on.

  697. I think this post is a good thing. Maybe it will help improve the terrible Malaysian drivers. Every Malaysian driver is awful, expecially those that “think” they are good.
    Honestly malaysians are the second worst drivers in the world. Malaysians have the second highest number of people killed in traffic accidents per 100,000 people in the ENTIRE world according to the WHO (world health organization) Belize is the only country worse than Malaysia.
    Heres the chart on asia pacific region.
    http://www.factbook.net/images/Asia_deaths_per_pop.gif

  698. wow so many comments! felt sorry about the accident. what we can do is to pray for them. AMEN.

  699. Malaysians have the second highest number of people killed in traffic accidents per 100,000 people in the ENTIRE world according to the WHO (world health organization)
    wow … i learn a new fact today

  700. KENNY, why didn’t u ask for the victim’s husband’s permission in the first place b4 u snapped the pics?
    Kenny replies: Do you realise how stupid the sentence above sound?
    Isn’t that more appropriate compared to doing tat after u song songly snapped to ur heart’s content? I wonder how u would feel if u had someone taking pics of ur family members in a motor accident? Wonder how u would feel. Maybe u can tell me and the rest of your supporters abt that?

  701. stop with all this shitty arguments already..
    especially that stupid chicken..
    everyday keep giving stupid new comments..
    so free?
    go finish up your work and clean your underwear..
    you want to win kennysia so badly why don’t you go and buy a lottery hoping to win the 1.6million grand prize…

  702. it’s going to be the greatest record!! let’s be part of the history!! 922??

  703. I think this post serves as a wake up call for all of us to drive carefully. Kennysia is right in posting this up.

  704. hahaaa.. all the best to you lah kenny..
    “men cap siao yi lang gong ha mi” [hokkien]
    juz do your best..

  705. HE is very inconsiderate, tat’s the fact…y argue? there’s nthg to do on the scene doesn’t means u hv to take pictures of it…it’s jz to mean

  706. Photos are inconsiderate and insensitive? I would think not. No dead bodies or horror flick gore was shown, it was to show the crash. What is wrong with taking pictures to illustrate some of the most deeply stirring events happening?
    In Journalism one seeks the truth. Kenny seeks the truth to air before your eyes and show the situation at hand. Would YOU be able to step up and do anything? Or perhaps YOU would just be taking out your laptop, surfing kennysia.com, and criticising somebody for doing something you could only assure others of doing but not execute on the spot?
    It is truly a test of courage to be able to respond decisively. Also, as a witness of a crash, all photographic evidence is valued. Should we remove our camera devices when something like this happens, and pretend we didn’t see anything and not describe the situation or the scene JUST TO BE SENSITIVE and not pragmatic?
    Kenny, a blog is both private and public, it just really depends on where you stake your limits. This post is really one of the gray areas, but honestly, don’t let yourself be affected by petty, selfish people who expect you to cater to their needs and their rigid wants. You have your own principles, and we, your loyal readers, respect it!

  707. Some of you people are morons. In Kenny’s case this is an event that happened in his life. This is why you read someone’s blog and it’s the job of a blogger to report on daily events. In my opinion this is one of his better posts and one with perhaps a positive impact. It has made people more aware of the problems in Malaysia with poor drivers. Kenny may have actually saved lives with this post. I’m sure it has made more than one person think twice before overtaking another vehicle.

  708. its nice how you have time to take pictures when you’re looking at a kid sprawled on a seat bleeding all over the place.
    what a fucking humanitarian you are. douche.

  709. i believe kenny is not those kind of ppl who just ‘talk the talk’, he ‘walk the talk’. look at his resolution he made early this year, climbing mount Kinabalu was one of it, and he climbed up there! not only that, he also going to appear in a reality show! he accomplished some of his resolution b4 the 1st half of the year ends. how many of you did that? that’s why i believe that kenny tried his best to help the family in the accident cause i don’t think he just talk the talk kind of person. on top of that, he even wana try raise fund for the family in the accident! how many of you guys even cared? you ppl just talk the talk but never helped at all! shame on you!
    Kenny, don’t ever let those ppl who only talk the talk bring you down, cause you’re different from them, you walk the talk! be strong as there are still people who realy look up to you and care for you! take care!

  710. They are plenty of chickens and ducks here without names… Don’t because of 1 chicken spoil the whole chickens here… “I’m A Chicken With No Name. BWAK BWAK BWAK!” is the greatest supporters of Kennysia.com…. Long Live Kenny!!

  711. Hey Mr. Westwood…..how was your sea trip off Louisiana? Time to treat ur wifey good after leaving her for 6 months eh? DOn’t play too much with carbon fiber and cars cos speed kills. Remember this advertisement? JEFF JEFF I KILLED MY BROTHER@!!!!!
    Wa salla lu mai kong!

  712. Eay~
    If Kenny didn’t take those photos, how much of informations can we get?
    Remember, picture tells thousand words.
    Let’s us all pray to the victims and stop blamming Kenny…
    It’s something that I call it happens, and there is nothing much we can do…
    Kenny is a proffesional. He know what he is doing.
    So please be proffesional…
    Don’t make him Tulan… We don’t like him when he is Tulan…
    By the way, I know this is a typical Malaysian style of giving comment.
    My first entry lorrr… v^.^v

  713. It’s quite pathetic to see how Malaysians express anger and hatred by using foul language.
    It’s a shame that we do not know how to use proper words to describe and debate our points.
    No matter which side you are on, foul languages lowers respect towards a person. Points made no matter how relevant would be disregard.
    Above is just my pov.
    erin

  714. To all the losers out there that criticise kenny’s action of being a spectator and a “shutter-bug”,I truly only have one thing in my mind for u…
    GET A LIFE N STOP JUDGING HIM..I mean who the hell are you(possibly just a single-cell life amoeba living on dirt water) and what position are you in to justify your condemnning of him for being ‘useless’ in these situations…Mind you,if you really think(or hallucinate in that matter) that you are such a noble person and would have done better if you were to be in his shoes at that moment in time,kindly GO KILL YOURSELF INSTANTLY.In that way you will be serving the community directly n indirectly by decreasing the amount of oxygen consumed and also the amount of carbon dioxide generated.
    Stop being such a wuss and a lifeless retard who surfs blogs and leave mindless remarks,especially if you think you can do better than the bloggers themselves..keep all the ‘brilliant’ comments to yourself or to your family.You will never appear as a freak or mutant to your own gene pool.So there you have it-my one and only solution to this blog entry.
    P|S: To those that even have the slightest of intention to rebuke me or to defend themselves,SAVE IT.I’m unlike you useless piece of crap that participates in minor and meaningless debates like this,not to mention logging into a blog entry day in and day out to read all these bullcrap.Seriously,grow some pubic hair n get a real life(u can try bidding for one on eBay if u really dont have one then,RETARDS!!!)
    Kenny,dont let these low-life forms prevent you from blogging your mind out and keep on doing what you are doing.Cheers

  715. I’m gonna say, God bless you.
    It seems like a lot of ppl r targeting you for something, I believe most ppl would do if they were to be put into that situation.
    Those who condemn kenny, ask yourself first if you would hav been able to help, or worst, u’d just drive away!
    I took pictures too when I saw some accidents. I took pictures of policemen catching thieves, so u think i shud go b part of the thieves-catching team? and in this case, wat more could u do other than call the ambulance, direct traffic, n help in everyway he could?
    perform cpr? use ur sane mind (but obviously a lot of u who condemn r not), PERFORM CPR ON A CRUSHED PERSON? R U SERIOUS?!
    alamak. arent u taught u r not allowed to touch any seriously injured victims? HUH?! HUHH?! HUHHH?!
    haih, i pity u kenny… those who condemned u r probably jealous of u… in every sense…

  716. p/s: its really good to b able to read some local news from ur site when i’m away from home.
    do post ur thoughts on as many local issues as possible! reading ur blog is always a delight! cheers mate!

  717. Hey j a s o n, y ur english so weird one? I bet u talk better when u r not talkin’ la…But ur vocabulary so damn chun ah, wat retard la, low-lifes la, wat single cell amoeba, wat wuss….aiyo, u think u some homeless freak is it? haha…wat mutate? U talk to ur parent with tat mouth ah?

  718. I agree with Winnie.
    These stupid bunch of jealous hating mofos just don’t seem to get the point. Kenny doesn’t deserve this. I’m defending you, Kenny, for I believe that you were (and are)being honest and sincere in sharing your experiences with us.
    Regarding this,
    “Those who condemn kenny, ask yourself first if you would hav been able to help, or worst, u’d just drive away!”
    They would just drive away. After all, the accident is just too insignificant for their clever minds.
    And these were the people (a few, actually, that’s why they had to type long comments to take up more space, when in reality, it shows just how stupid and ignorant they are) who in their stupid, retarded minds dared to question Kenny’s intentions.
    And as for their all-out, forceful “efforts” to tell Kenny (they were barely advising) what is right from wrong, I question their intention, Kenny.
    What do they even bother? Had it not been on Kennysia.com, they wouldn’t even think about it (heck, they would just see it as “another story” in the papers).
    What were they trying to do? Manipulate the whole situation, take advantage of the blog’s popularity, and sabotage you (Kenny) by bashing ignorantly without even knowing any details???
    Obviously, they were.
    Full of logical fallacies and half-assed sarcasms, they were talking about ethics and creed bull, when they don’t even have any respect for the blog owner or even other comment-leavers.
    Not to mention their lack of manners.
    Anyway, thanks for sharing us your experiences and daily adventures. I appreciate that people who actually have a life like you are sharing your thoughts (in a polite and ethical manner). It makes the internet a more interesting place to surf.
    Keep up the good work on KennySia.com!
    Ethics my foot, you stupid mofos talk the talk, but you can’t walk the walk. Learn to use your brains next time.

  719. Hey man, dont u think u have milked it enough? How long do u expect to leave these pictures in here.
    Sad to note, u will only remove it when the father asks u to?
    Kenny replies: Leave me your e-mail address and I will forward you an e-mail I got from the husband of the deceased driver and father of the deceased children giving me permission to put up this entry. Be a man. Do the right thing.
    damn show some heart…the poor guy is grieving.
    i noticed u have blogs from 2005. i suppose yr masterpiece will be in here for much longer then that…how do u think the little girl that survived the accident will feel one fine day when she so happened across this blog!!!!!
    the newpapers u mentioned in yr defence have archieved it already.is it not?
    u still showing it…mate show some heart..QI so eloquently put..couldn’t have said it better…
    search yr soul, am i right?
    never an issue about charity, charity do not need publicity…good deed often goes unrewarded…never the intention if the deed is genuine n from the heart…
    milk this all u want, create controversy for publicity…truly…ifu want world wide recognition…jump off from yr favorite drinking hole..links isnt it…that would make headlines….maybe for one day..yr no kurt cobane
    Kenny replies: You jump I jump.

  720. Hey Kenny,
    Appreciate your blog entry. I’m sure it’s a sensitive issue but it is so real too. This happens everyday somewhere in Sarawak and only now when posted here on your PERSONAL blog that so many people are jumping up and down about these sort of scenarios.
    Even on one of the trips during last year’s BANDKUEST, the crew and I had to stop and help lift a car out of the drain somewhere along the Bintulu-Sibu highway. No deaths or casualties there but we did stop to help. However, if anyone had injuries to their necks or backs, i’d stay out of the way rather than try be a hero cos i may endanger them further.
    So in situations like this, we do what we can and know and stay the heck outta the way of people who now what to do.
    You’ve matured more Mr Kenny Sia. Keep it up! God bless.

  721. some of the comments here are TOTALLY ridiculous…
    its not like there was a fire in a building and he saw someone still inside and took photo instead of helping…OMG….you ppl are crazy.
    and you guys forget that in malaysia whenever there is an accident, EVERYONE stops and looks, so maybe kenny takes a photo to remember it better or to show people that it happened, what’s so insensitive about that ?
    in fact if he is able to change one person so that for that one day he drives more safely and therefore does not get into an accident, he has done some good ! much more that some of you can say..
    people only know how to criticize, but what have YOU done today ? and plz dont say at least i didnt do anything bad…..
    if you didnt do any good, then seriously….who are you to criticize and even if you did, please use your brains when commenting.

  722. Thanks for sharing and alerting all of us. Sadly, it often takes an incident like this one to wake us up.

  723. Sorry mate, no jump for me, besides i ain’t the one looking for publicity..also, I do not care to read the email,i’ll just take yr word for it…
    Hey, u ever thought of the little girl…how traumatic it will be for her to discover this blog..she’s scarred i am sure, why risk re-opening the wound….no regrets then.
    HOw many comments or hits do you need before u will remove it?? Give us the numbers, i will contribute in the hope you will remove those pictures!!!
    So whats the target??

  724. NKMF>> don’t care for your opinion, just the little girl’s well being if she so happened to come across this blog..get it? duhh…
    Kenny replies: Leave me your e-mail address and I will forward you an e-mail I got from the husband of the deceased driver and father of the deceased children giving me permission to put up this entry. Be a man. Do the right thing.

  725. you must be a disgusting person in real life. Think of your loved ones and imagine what would happen if pictures of them in their smashed state appeared on some fat ass’s blog. I find it questionable that this woman’s kin allows the pics to be published on a blog of this quality. It’s popular, yes, but so is XX’s blog, for god’s sake. You neglect to consider that the victims themselves would probably NOT want to be featured, bloody and smashed, on a blog. Did that occur to you? Would you post a picture of your dad on his deathbed on your blog for public consumption?
    quite despicable.
    Kenny replies: Leave me your e-mail address and I will forward you an e-mail I got from the husband of the deceased driver and father of the deceased children giving me permission to put up this entry. Be a man. Do the right thing.

  726. I think you should not have taken the photo, but u can just post up without pictures, with pictures, u might scare others….Sorry for offending you 🙁

  727. I never realized how many bitchy little pussies read your blog kenny. That these little cry babys are able to leave their teddy bears and pink painted rooms and go out into the real world is a miracle.

  728. NKMG>>> You are not the girl’s father… You have no right to stop a free speech world…. Many accident victims loosing their loved one…. life must go on…. move forward… When the girl realised this blog, it could be >10 years already.. this entry already sinken deep under or maybe kenny already quit blogging or archieved or purged or etc… What’s your problem ? Be a man and do the right thing.

  729. In reality, this world is full with bad news: rape cases, accidents, human bomb suicide, etc. And the biggest bad news broadcasters are our local newspaper. Everyday, we read bad news in newspapers. Every bad news relate to someone as victims. BUT THIS IS REALITY. WE NEED TO WAKE UP.. There is nothing we can stop bad news happening around the world. Nothing to be scared of. Just move on… We can’t never escape DEATH. Only GOD knows! Good luck!

  730. Sigh, I am NOT going to read every single one of the comments but I get the gist of it.
    Kenny, I understand your good intentions and that you meant no harm. Rock on, babe.
    To all the outraged irrational people out there, pay attention.
    1. The family of the desceased KNOWS about this.
    2. They have given Kenny full permission
    3. Kenny meant to remind ALL OF US to drive safe
    4. Getting mad and abusive on the behalf of the bereft family just implies that you think they are wrong in giving permission or that they were idiots in doing so. Either way, you are insulting them in their time of grief. Respect their decision.
    Consider, the government approved images on cigarette packs that are meant to discourage smoking are far more graphic and disturbing
    Consider, the awareness Kenny raised for safe driving and how many people might have been saved.
    Consider, Kenny witnessed something horrific. Doesn’t anyone think he may have suffered also?
    I read this post once before and after re-reading it I still think there’s nothing wrong about it.
    Hey Kenny, do you think the sheer number of comments here give you any bragging rights over a certain pink, snowy, singaporean blogger?

  731. Kenny>> Enough have been said about why is there a need to publish those pictures in order to get a point across…it may or may not have been for profit and if it is, the likes of me may have even aided you in making it a “masterpiece”.
    The intention is not to help you achieve whatever target you’ve set but simply to do the right thing and in doing so, it inevitably there are “collateral damage”.
    No one can be forced, physically or otherwise, then again, that is never my intention…it is simply an appeal to your good conscience and what is decent.
    I may have caused you an iota of stress but these are just words without distressing pictures.
    I presume, the email helped ease your suffering a little and naturally, any human will continually use it in their defence but no decent human being would use it as validation to profit!
    The “Public Service Announcement” suggests you are probably aware of what “Nervous Shock” means and what it entails.
    Kennysia Blog is not the paper and neither is my argument a validation of any paper. I have always been disgusted and incensed with irresponsible papers milking such stories for profit.
    Is your conscience clear?
    I quote you: “Be a man. Do the right thing”. What!!!!!! You mean, read the email? No thanks.
    Afterall, it is an email addressed to you and for your benefit?
    NKMF>>> How appropriate the quote in your comments. The maker of the statement spoke of the effects such pictures may have on readers, who are not even relatives nor loved ones! Can you imagine how loved ones will feel? Are we to judge when or how long before it no longer matters?
    Kenny replies: Seriously, just leave me your e-mail address if you are really concerned about this issue so we can discuss it privately instead of over here. It’s just an e-mail address dude. I’m not gonna spam you.

  732. I happen to browse the blog today. Geez, what a sad story to hear. I also got involved in a car accident in Australia and now my car need to be scrapped as it could not be driven safely anymore. (too expensive to repair as the cost is able to cover me another new car)
    Anyway 18th of May, what an unlucky time….18 + 5 = 23?

  733. It’s fine in here.
    Afterall, you displayed those pictures in here and why not discuss it in a public forum such as this?
    Kenny replies: As most of us would’ve experienced, when two people attempt to debate in a public forum, what is supposed to be a civic discussion could easily degenerate into a name-calling flame war. When two people debate in public, there is a “face” factor involved that most of us would try to protect.
    The most intelligent discussion I have had are conducted privately and in many cases compromise can be reached and a better understanding on each other’s position can be achieved.
    I do not understand why you are so reluctant to provide your e-mail address. If you are so afraid I will publicly shame and humiliate you, please have my assurance that no I won’t.
    There is a reason why most bloggers prefer to have a civil conversation with non-anonymous commenter. You already know my full name, yet I do not know yours. You have nothing to lose, yet I stand to lose so much more. We cannot have an intellectual discourse this way, which is why I propose to continue this discussion privately via e-mail if you are so concerned and passionate about this issue.

  734. sigh nkmg, jus give kenny ur email add. getting tired of reading you lambasting kenny with your perspective on what’s right and what’s wrong.. (note: they’re yours and yours alone only, I do not share them)

  735. Look Kenny my intentions are obvious and clearly not for my benefit.
    Your other blogs have been entertaining, light hearted and often informative but i take expection to this particular blog.
    Remove those pictures please.
    BTW: No emails and it’s not out of fear that you will humiliate me, i know you won’t.

  736. THE CRUX OF THE ISSUE ISN’T WHETHER A RELATIVE GAVE YOU PERMISSIOn. I have no doubt that you do indeed have permission to do so, else you would have been sued off your sorry ass.
    what is repugnant is that you are deriving blog hits, comments, and advertising revenue from issues such as this.
    commenters aren’t being uncivil, they are saying that some things should be sacred.
    Your dad would be ashamed.
    Kenny replies: And who are you to speak on behalf of my dead father?

  737. Please stop all personal attack against Kenny!! Are you guys Malaysians?????? Be gentleman when you giving out your opinions. Not behave like barbarians!!!

  738. lolx. funny, how a post can stirrr up the whole population of msia. lolx.
    i dont think it matters dat he took the photos and post them up. its jus something dat he came across dat day, and decided to share with everyone. what is wrong with dat? hd did feel sorry for the family. why make such a big issue? the photos he took were just scenes, no faces of victims, just what happened.
    its like saying someone fell down, u snaped a picture and post it up. though i know dis is not just a matter of someone falling down, but still. i dont see why you guys are making such a big fuss bout it. they are just photos of what happened..
    Afterall,
    HE DID GET PERMISSION FROM THE FAMILY.

  739. OK… I am giving up… 🙂 I am going to leave here. Bye everyone.
    Posted by: NKMG at 28 May 2007 1:01 AM | Link to comment
    From your comments, I guess you have difficulty in coming up with another name, so here is a suggestion: “duh!”
    Please use another name!

  740. just shut down the comments section for this post. no point arguing or explaning yourself to idiots. they will never get it. never argue with an idiot. he will bring you down to his level, then beat you on experience.

  741. “OK… I am giving up… 🙂 I am going to leave here. Bye everyone.
    Posted by: NKMG at 28 May 2007 1:01 AM ”
    Giving up or defeated by reasonable views?

  742. i hate car accidents..they snatches lives away from us n young ppl should reli be careful on the road.

  743. will>>> It’s obvious you have difficulty with reading.
    This blog has just the kind of supporters that derive pleasure from human tragedy.
    It is just sickening, what a sad lot you are!
    Some shows on Astro have videos of horrific crashes and accidents. I wonder if you ever watched it.
    You ever wonder as to why they never show videos where the victims did not survive?

  744. Seems like the comments section still growing! Welldone to Kenny for making the first Malaysian Blog to achieve 1000+ comments!!! This is a new Malaysia records!!
    Some still arguing about taking photos or not taking photos blah blah blah…. Is there any LAWS govern photo taking in public area? The photos do not show any part of human face or car plate no. It’s a fact that accident happened. No one can prevent accident except GOD. Permission given by victim’s father. What’s the hell is this NKMG talking about…. Acting like a GOD, JUDGE, POLICEMAN, LAW ENFORCER, PASTOR, SINGALINGAM?

  745. All comments were valid and valued to each individual. CPR or artificial resucitation can only be applied by the actual helpers in situ. We cannot pass judgement on their behalf. They were there assessing the situation and made decision. If they were dead, very unfortunate especially to a young family. God bless them all. Equally, Kenny had done his part by using whatever time and tools he had to help publicise what actually happened and maybe the deceased family might want to know what happen and would also appreciate visual images. This might help to bring a closure to their grief. Thanks again Kenny.

  746. well, i just think that what kenny is doing here is to tell us about how he felt during the whole situation and stuff. whether he wants his blog to be more popular or whatever, its between he and god alone so dont blame him without proof. i feel sorry too about this whole situation, and about the race thing…i find it stupid that we rate each race with something and what one of the readers wrote was true that every race has its bad side and its good side. i just feel that kenny wants to share his story with us and its his blog he can do whatever he wants in it. he can post your nude picture,my nude picture and even his nude pictures so live with it. if you dont like it then just dont bother reading and commenting…

  747. As of the time of writing, I saw that Kenny Sia’s blog post entitled “an unfortunate accident” posted 18th May 2007 has had 947 comments in 7 days, from 18th May 3.20am up to 25th May 11.42pm. This could be a record for a Malaysian blog. Today after a week I check again the “an unfortunate accident” comment reached 1011…woww!! Malaysia Genies Book of Record!!

  748. yay! 1000+ comments and we’re part of it! haha.. don’t worry kenny! we’ll support you all the way!

  749. What is wrong with you people… by all means, leave meaningful comments but what the fuck are you ppl thinking….post #835 , #999 , yay ..#1000 post coming…. counting the posts.. its like those idiots that are commenting “Hey COol! i’m the first to post…” dumb fucks! people died here ok. show some respect.. if you don’t have anything to say.. shut the Fuck up!
    and kenny.. you traffic whore… what was the first thing that came to your mind when you saw the accident.. sure some sense of emotion came to you but hey… you managed to whip out your cam and take some photos…, “hey this is going to be one hell of a topic for tomorrow..,i wonder how much traffic will look like”…dun tell me bro.. but if you did, you have lost all respect as a human being….
    fine. you called the emergency services.. if you can’t help..(and you said you learnt first aid)the decent thing to do was to leave the scene.. how many times have we seen on malaysian roads that were jammed up by bystanders with nothing better to do… and the ambulance or fire trucks can’t get to the people in need.. wake up your bloody idea people.
    If you see an accident. and you can’t help, the best thing is to get the fuck out of there. no point jamming up the roads!
    Get a life!

  750. U said u are shocked? but u took loads of steady pics? WTF!! u chould have just do your job well and not by taking pics and blog about it!!! bastard!

  751. kenny,only you know why you did what you did.nuff said.btw,if this happened in singapore,there’ll be 10x more comments,because we all know how many pussies and whiners there are on that little piece of land.

  752. Hmmm… i think i wouldn’t know what to do too if i were you…
    No worries about that..
    But like many others… i just really wondered that do you feel awkward by taking so many pics?
    Like how the others look at you too.. Hmmm..
    Maybe one or two would be quite obvious which accident it is if you wanted to contact the deceased.
    Hmmm… never mind.. everybody makes mistakes.
    I still love reading your blog.
    Take care..
    *Hugs*

  753. Err… what’s this thing got to do with Singapore..?
    I love Singapore and Malaysia..
    but i don’t see any connection that Singapore gotta be involved in this situation.

  754. It’s funny how people think they know what happened during the accident better than Kenny Sia although they were not there at the scene. The thing is Kenny Sia does not owe an apology to his readers. Like it or not, this is his personal space and he can write whatever he wants. You, on the other hand, have the choice not to visit his blog if you don’t like it. Of course, you can leave comments but don’t expect a blogger to change his ways just because you hate his guts.

  755. I realise that you may be attempting to raise a little public awareness about safety when driving and that you don’t want to ‘back down’ as its not ‘manly’ but Kenny, if there were at least one photo you could delete from this blog post, please make it the one with the child’s legs showing.
    Imagine a family member and extended family member going through this years from now then seeing that picture?
    Trauma all over again.
    ps. A wise man once said’ “Only fools and dead men never change their minds”.

  756. to me, if u cant help, then leave….dun stay at the scene taking photos…it’s nt a jay chou’s concert or watever….if u r nt a journalist, and u cant help, dun stay there…pretending to be helpful would jz make matters worse…

  757. I dun understand why u guys are still fighting over this. it doesn matter anymore if it’s right o wrong bout kenny taking those pics. It’s over. Wudn it be better for u guys to see what else u can do for these victims? The brother to that driver is a close friend of mine. He’s painful enough going through this trauma and all u guys can do if argue over this stupid post. Darnheads.

  758. opinions are like arseholes – everyone’s got one.
    Getting personal about all this isn’t gonna change anything.
    Get over it…

  759. Considering the number of Posts, I’d say this blog was HIGHLY Successfull.
    So far the accident was caused by Bad-Driving though I’m still interested in what the Official Police Investigation concluded.
    Most posts centering on petty “Blame”,leaves me wondering whether the re-action is “Immature or Cultural”??
    How many will amend their Driving Habits and for how long because of this Blog?
    And MOST important: Will Politicians re-act with SAFER-Legislation which does NOT emphasise INCREASED Revenues.
    i.e: Mandatory child-seats,Free off-peak clinics where Police demonstrate PROPER Installation of Child-Seats,surprisingly many Child-seats are Not Properly Installed. From photos of the accident,rear seat was not crushed.
    Actually seeing the effects of an accident has more impact than being told 1000 times,for that alone the pics were worth it.
    There are programs where Bad-drivers have to spend time with the Injured as part of their sentence,putting a FACE on the victim makes it PERSONAL rather than just paying a Fine and keep driving badly.
    Driving is SERIOUS Business which could be FUN when done RESPONSIBLY.

  760. those who flame kenny for no particular reasons should find something else to do.
    clearly you peeps are jealous. ‘Nuff said.
    ‘its a comment box…no one will know me’.
    well..its your life.
    Kenny, nice post on the accident. although there were no gruesome photo but the ones posted were already bad enough. God bless their souls. Forget about what these jealous fucks have to say

  761. Its a bad accident but people really don’t learn their lesson. How can they drive carelessly when they are fully aware their KIDS are in the car?

  762. This blog post is to CREATE AWARENESS to us.
    Not for some of u who think u r the DEFENDER-OF-THE-LITTLE-CHILD to to leave some jealousy comments !
    Try to do something else MEANINGFUL to decrease the rate of accidents la. Don’t waste ur time TALKING SHIT here! Then u can save a lot of children, with their fragile hearts together. And the POOR family would NEVER sad too. You some STUPIDS.

  763. Dear Kenny,
    WoW! I’m a middle-aged teacher who happened to see yr photo in the Star and I just went into yr website for fun and read all the stuff about the ‘accident photos’.
    Fantastic-all those comments you managed to generate. Shows how many people fancy your blogging.Trust me,by putting the photos, you made a lot of people realise the vulnerability of humans;if we drive carelessly, lives will be lost. People’s lives are the most important things in the world-NOT photos, NOT memories, NOT opinions; so if we have learnt something from your photos, especially from the aspect of safety on the road and that we must always be alert and patient, then you have really done the right thing.
    Carry on your good work. No matter what others say ,you have really made a difference and you had the courage to do it despite you knowing that you were bound to receive a lot of flak!
    Warmest regards,
    Nonie Ang

  764. This is the reason why the public should urge the government to expand most big roads to 2-lane roads, especially those frequently traveled by trucks and cars. This way no driver will need to pass the slow vehicles in the front by driving to the opposite way. It’s extremely dangerous and never should be recommended. All these two-way roads were built probably 30 years ago, and yet they never improved.

  765. i think u have done a good thing to post this in your blog. people might not know how serious will it be to be driving recklessly. May the family rest in peace.
    I am sorry that u cant do anything at that time. It must be hard for u.

  766. i really wonder out of the hundreds or fewer people who dissed kenny for posting up pics would really go forward and offer a helping hand. i really wonder. and so what if he doesnt help by carrying the little girl? the other volunteers could have carried her earlier, so what do u expect him to do? snatch the little girl from them to prove that hes a good person who cares?
    pictures are the second best thing to do. but believe me, one is enough to show the effects of the crash.

  767. OMG.. Kenny is not to be blamed.. this is so sad.. so many young lives are lost.. anyway, you’ve tried your best.. though it has been quite a while, my condolences.. my hearts go out to the family of victims..You are in my thoughts and prayers..

  768. I do not understand what these motherfuckers been bitching about yo.
    Kenny, u did the right thing! call 911 (in this case 112) then get help or do whatever u can after assessing the danger…. don’t wanna get caught in a fireball.
    To the family, My Condolences. Life’s gotta move on though it’s hard. God bless em souls.
    To Anti-Kennysia.com supporters, fuck off and get a life. Else, i’ll foot-pound the poop outta ass.
    Kenny, they r bitching coz they r jealous of u man, dont have to give a tut.
    Kenny, i think by counting the votes, u actually won!!! so just em the middle finger….

  769. I do not think you did anything wrong as well. What you did was to give a first hand report on an accident that any reporter witnessed would do as well.
    At least you helped to call for ambulance.
    You did great kenny!

  770. this is so malaysia..the news is about the accident but still people pointing out the blame on the photo-taker..weird people..

  771. ur so damn true LOVE X .. btw saw some statements asks u to lear first aid and cpr.. freak accident like this are not like any of your ordinary accidents where u can jump in and hel by doing cpr and first aid.. what if those involved in accidents suffers broken rib or internal bleeding? u wouldnt know that for sure wont u? unless ur a well experienced doctor thats other case.. the best thing to do is call the emergency number and try asking for hel from passersby that might be doctors or knows how to help in this kind of situation.. pls excuse me for my bad engrish >_

  772. he did nothing wrong…if you were there with a camera or camcorder on hand, i think you might had done the same thing…should all reporters make a phone call to police or hospital before starts reporting or taking pictures? no way!

  773. One thing i noticed is that people are blaming Kenny for not using his “First-aid” skills. Seriously tough, in an accident, when severe physical trauma is inflicted, the victim should NEVER be carried out or moved out of his/her current position, UNLESS staying there will result in worse injuries. Lifting an extremely wounded person requires extreme medical care, something only Doctors are trained for. If not, worse things can happen – consider the weight of the body and baring the open wounds. The ONLY thing that should be done is to keep the child in a conscious state of mind till the paramedics arrived. If she’s not, no options are left but to wait.
    There, just stating a fact that was lingering in the back of my head as i read this blog, and part of the comments.
    Good job Kenny!!!

  774. EXCUSE ME PPL.
    there are many idiotic dirvers out there. MORE pictures should be taken and be stuck up their face to make sure they realised.
    My friend, shobaan passed away on the 10th of september because of his idotic friend’s driving skills. there was a You Tube video on the after-math. IT IS now police evidance. see how useful it is? the driver claimed he wasnt drving but in rea; fact her was!
    Btw, police guys are not gonna take picstures k? it is advised, one get the news and evidance of a fatal crash to help the police out. pls be considerate and stop fussing like girls.

  775. I happened across yr blog by chance when i was looking out for political news today…..almost two and a half years since i last read any of yr blogs.
    I am rather disappointed to find this blog again.

  776. U say u have better things to do but actually u have nothing better to say. Accept that u rambling nonsense. The author did nothing wrong. There is a difference between criticism and yak-yak-yakadee-yak-yak. Criticism is constructive. You just spreading ur hate.

  777. whether or not it was ethical to take pictures at the scene of the accident, i’ll leave it to God to judge.
    what i do know is that it really opened my eyes, made me rethink certain bad drivings habits of mine.
    as graphic and shocking as this post is (i cried when i read it), thank you for helping to raise awareness, at least in this driver.

  778. Hi Kenny,
    I came to read your blog after search on google. I did not go through all the comments.
    Anyways, just want to drop some messages to you
    Do not worry about what others think of what you have done, as long as you know you did it right. Kuchingite have been grown up in a natural discrimination culture and it was an intimidating fact for me.
    So, be yourself and thanks to your blog, I came to know what to do in the accident if I ever meet one in future. At least I know, being shocked is completely normal and I just need to be calm enough and plan things and rescue.
    Thanks Kenny.
