JULY 20TH, 2010UPDATE 6.30PM
IT SEEMS THAT A PLAUSIBLE EXPLANATION FOR THE PHENOMENON IS THAT THE "UFO" WAS MERELY A LENTICULAR CLOUD, I.E. A CLOUD THAT IS SHAPED LIKE A LENS. THIS KIND OF CLOUD IS USUALLY MISTAKEN FOR ALIEN PLANES. THE COLOUR CHANGE COULD BE DUE TO "IRISATION" WHICH COULD SOMETIMES BE SEEN ON THE EDGES.
AN EXAMPLE IS THE FOLLOWING WHICH WAS SEEN OVER THE BRITISH COAST FOR ALMOST AN HOUR IN JANUARY 2009:
OF COURSE THAT COULD NOT EXPLAIN THE "A MERE MINUTE LATER [IT] DISAPPEARED IN AN INSTANT," ALTHOUGH THAT COULD VERY WELL BE AN EXAGGERATION BY THE WITNESSES.
WHATEVER IT IS, THIS WONDER OF NATURE SHOULD NOT STOP ONE FROM DOING A PAUL VASQUEZ :-)
AFTER THAT FRONT-PAGE-REPORTED "UFO SIGHTING" BY NO LESS THAN THE MANAGING DIRECTOR OF SABAH PUBLISHING HOUSE DATUK CLEMENT YEH ON 11TH OCTOBER 2007, WE FINALLY COULD HAVE A REAL MYSTERY ON OUR HANDS.
DATE: 18TH JULY 2010 (SUNDAY)
TIME: AFTERNOON
PLACE: TUARAN BEACH RESORT
WITNESSES REPORTED A CIRCULAR, BLUE OBJECT FLOATING IN THE SKY THAT A FEW SECONDS LATER TURNED GREEN, AND A MERE MINUTE LATER DISAPPEARED IN AN INSTANT, ALL IN COMPLETE SILENCE.
THE FOLLOWING IS PURPORTED TO BE A PHOTO OF THE SAUCER - I KNOW, EVEN WITHOUT ALIENS FROM OUTER SPACE, THE PHOTO ALREADY LOOKS SPECTACULAR DOESN'T IT:
[PHOTO CREDIT: MOHD AZRONE SARABATIN - FULL SIZE]
ZOOMED:
CONVENIENTLY, AS EXPECTED, "SOME" MOBILE PHONES USED TO TAKE PHOTOS OF THE OBJECT "SWITCHED OFF BY THEMSELVES", AS IF THE CREATURE PILOTING THE ALIEN PLANE USED A UNIVERSAL REMOTE CONTROL COMPATIBLE WITH MANY MOBILE PHONES IN THE KNOWN UNIVERSE.
THIS PIECE OF NEWS WAS REPORTED IN HARIAN METRO AND NOT ANY OF THE MAJOR DAILIES. DOES THAT SAY ANYTHING TO YOU?
SOMEONE MENTIONED THAT IT'S MERELY A PHOTO OF A HELICOPTER AT THE LOWEST ISO SETTING POSSIBLE. SOMEONE ELSE SAID IT'S MERELY A CLOUD FORMATION. SOME WONDERED WHETHER THE PHOTO ABOVE WAS TAKEN FROM INSIDE A ROOM, HENCE THE OBJECT WAS MERELY A REFLECTION OF A LIGHT INSIDE - BUT PROBABLY ALL THE WITNESSES WERE OUTSIDE THE BUILDING, PERHAPS EVEN SOME EVEN LOOKED UP WHILE WORKING ON THE EQUESTRIAN APPAREL NEXT DOOR. INEVITABLY, SOMEONE QUIPPED THAT IT WAS A ZIONIST PLOT TO STRAY MALAYS AWAY FROM THE TRUE PATH.
APPARENTLY THE LAST TIME A BONA FIDE UFO APPEARED IN THE COUNTRY WAS IN 1999 IN TANJUNG SEPAT, KUALA LANGAT, SELANGOR. BUT ACCORDING TO GEORGE MATANJUN, A CATHOLIC LAY MINISTER AND A CATECHIST, HENCE "DOES NOT LIE", AS REPORTED AT UFOEVIDENCE.ORG, HE SAW A UFO ON 8TH OCTOBER 2005 AT TANJUNG ARU BEACH, KOTA KINABALU.
THEN THERE WAS THAT "FLYING COFFIN" OVER KOTA KINABALU AIRPORT THAT WAS CAUGHT ON CCTV AS REPORTED IN TV3'S MISTERI NUSANTARA IN OCTOBER 2002, WHICH ROSE NEAR THE SEA, FLEW "AT GREAT SPEED" OVER THE TERMINAL, THEN DISAPPEARED BEHIND THE ADJACENT HILLS, ALL IN COMPLETE SILENCE. THE RADAR STATION DID NOT PICK IT UP.
SABAHANS CERTAINLY HAVE A PENCHANT FOR EXTRA-TERRESTRIALS, FOR PROBABLY THE FIRST REPORTED UFO ABDUCTION IN THE HISTORY OF THE NATION WAS REPORTED TO HAVE HAPPENED NEAR TAMBUNAN IN FEBRUARY 2001, WHERE A MAN CLAIMED THAT A SQUARE-HEADED ALIEN WANTED TO "TAKE HIM AWAY," AND HE APPARENTLY DID DISAPPEAR FOR 11 DAYS, WHICH WAS VERY UNUSUAL - MOST "UFO ABDUCTEES" WENT MISSING FOR A MAXIMUM OF 5 DAYS. BUT CHILLINGLY, THE COORDINATOR OF THE CENTRE FOR MALAYSIAN UFO STUDIES (CENMYUFOS), AHMAD JAMALUDIN SAID, "THERE WERE SOME UFO ACTIVITIES AROUND KOTA KINABALU AT THAT TIME THAT COULD LEND SOME CREDENCE TO THE CLAIM."
CLOSE ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND, SABAH STYLE? PERHAPS HE JUST HAD ONE "TAPAI "TOO MANY.
