Malaysia’s Covid-19 situation is still not looking too good. The total confirmed cases as at today stands at 33,339. And 251 deaths.
Strong recovery numbers have again pushed the number of active cases down to below 10,000 – 9,968 to be precise.
The hotspots are still Sabah with the most number of new cases today (503) and the Greater KL Area comes in second (157).
We have to accept that breaking the Covid-19 chain requires discipline and a strict observance of the SOPs – but that's about all we can do, methinks. We must acknowledge that a stricter regimen of rules and procedures will only break the fragile economy. And we cannot afford that.
As I have said, time and again, coronavirus is here to stay – so we must live with it!
Simon O’Rourke is an environmental artist from Wales specializing in wood sculpture.
The story goes that the tallest tree in a Welsh woodland known as the Giants of Vyrnwy had been storm-damaged and was due to be felled. Natural Resource Wales, who were in charge of the site, wanted to commission an artist to carve the tree – and O’Rourke vied for the job and got it.
It took him six days of intense work using chainsaws and grinders. And he fashioned a giant hand, symbolizing the giants, and the tree’s last attempt to reach for the sky! Stunningly staggering!
Apparently, if you’d like to get a personal sculpture like this one, you’d have to pay around $12,000!
