IPOH: A group of youths made a giant Malaysian flag and draped it over the iconic "Ipoh" sign that greets incoming motorists at Simpang Pulai here.
They even documented their "feat" in a one-minute clip, which shows them purchasing the material, putting it together, painting the Malaysian flag, and placing it over the sign.
The flag is believed to have been placed over the sign on Saturday, in conjunction with Malaysia Day.
However, checks on the sign located at KM294.4 of the North-South Expressway near Simpang Pulai showed there was no flag present.
The Ipoh City Council and the police are investigating the matter.
Earlier this year, a group of eight youths had climbed up the iconic Ipoh sign perched on a hilltop that overlooks the Kuala Kangsar road, near the Gunung Lang area.
Police recorded statements from the group over their stunt, photographs of which went viral online.
It is yet to be determined if this is the same group of people who put flag up the flag.
Super8 Ipoh mengaku pasang Jalur Gemilang di papan tanda IPOH
IPOH 18 Sept. - Sekumpulan remaja yang menggelarkan diri mereka sebagai kumpulan Super8 Ipoh mengaku memasang Jalur Gemilang di papan tanda perkataan IPOH di tepi Lebuh Raya Utara Selatan dekat Gopeng pada Jumaat lalu.
Ahli kumpulan berkenaan yang hanya mahu dikenali sebagai Faiz Paeh berkata, tindakan mereka memasang Jalur Gemilang gergasi itu hanya untuk menunjukkan semangat patriotik anak muda menyambut Hari Malaysia yang disambut pada Sabtu lalu.
Menurutnya, mereka memasang Jalur Gemilang hanya kira-kira 10 minit untuk rakaman video dan membukanya semula sebelum turun dari kawasan papan tanda yang terletak di kawasan bukit.
"Saya dan beberapa orang kawan lagi naik ke papan tanda IPOH selepas solat Jumaat. Niat kami memasang Jalur Gemilang hanyalah untuk meraikan sambut Hari Malaysia pada keesokkannya," katanya ketika dihubungi hari ini.
Rakaman video berdurasi 60 saat aksi kumpulan tersebut memasang Jalur Gemilang di papan tanda perkataan IPOH tular di laman sosial hari ini.
Faiz Paeh mengakui dia merupakan antara kumpulan remaja yang memanjat papan tanda perkataan ‘IPOH’ di Jalan Kuala Kangsar di sini pada Januari lalu.
