IPOH, June 7 — The woman hiker Jaslinda Saludin, 49, who was found safe after going missing for 14 days during a hike at Gunung Batu Putih near Tapah, recounted how she survived in the forest without carrying any food and water.
She shared how she scrounged up water from natural sources in the forest, including water from pitcher plants, to ensure her survival throughout her two-week ordeal.
“I had no food, I didn’t eat for two weeks. I drank water… dark water, brown water, water from pitcher plants. So let’s all be grateful to be alive,” she said in a short 32-second video shared on social media.
Jaslinda was found by Orang Asli villager Nazri a/l Bah Eng near Kampung Lubuk Gaharu, Pos Musoh, Tapah, at about 5 pm and was taken to Tapah Hospital for treatment.
In another video, Jaslinda shared how she repeatedly fell and struggled to survive each day in the forest after she went missing on May 24. — Bernama
