Many stories are told, not written. The oral histories of everyday Malaysians is something that often gets lost, forgotten, if for nothing else, simply because we do little to record them. Intimate stories. Personal stories. The stories that make us who we are.  In conjunction with Chinese New Year, Umapagan Ampikaipakan speaks to Lt. Colonel Dato' Kam Yoon Sang,who lived through those days of the communist insurgency and served in the Malaysian Armed Forces for over 20 years. He tells us stories from his life - of his childhood in Kampung Pulai, of his days in the military, of how he met his wife.
