I saw this guy on his stopover at Bukit Bintang, Kuala Lumpur. His big bike parked on the walkway do attract attention and for that reason I am blogging about him. Based on the map that he displayed on the wall behing him, this guy had travelled almost all over the world on his motorbike. He is Vladimir A. Yarets from Minsk, Belarus, Russia. His mission is to be stamped in the Book of World records like below:
Vladimir, 64 is a native of Minsk in Belarus is a handicap. He is deaf and determined to be the first person of this dissability to travel round the world on a motorbike. He is now on a stopover in Kuala Lumpur. He started his journey on 27th May 2000. Check his records HERE and the photo below.
At first when I saw him I thought he is was the blogger Raja Petra Kamaruddin on the loose. LOL.
Its quite difficult to communicate with him because he is deaf and mute. So communication is using the non verbal and sign language. however he has posters to help convey his message.
Suddenly he pulled out of his trouser pocket a note telling that he need donation for petrol. As a mark of support for his effort with the dissability, I gave a small token of Malaysian Ringgit.
