Humanoid Encounters in Malaysia
MUFON UFO Journal, No. 141, November 1979 (USA)
By Ahmad Jamaludin
UFO occupants or "humanoids" present themselves in
various shapes and sizes, as do the UFO themselves. Worldwide reports have from
time to time given rise to new types or species of humanoids, from small winged
creatures to huge hairy creatures. But from reports as early as 1897 it has
become clear that one type – the 4 feet-5 inches Oriental type – has been
consistent. They were seen widely in France during the great 1954 UFO wave and
continued to be sighted as recently as 1979 in South Africa.
While other countries have been experiencing close
encounters with humanoids of diversified forms, I would like to draw attention
to the reports in Malaysia where humanoid encounters have been confined to only
one type – tiny entities measuring from 3 inches to 6 inches in height. Though
reports of the other UFO categories bear similarity to the global sightings,
encounters with humanoids in Malaysia on the record so far are in a class of
their own. There has not been a single reported incident of encounters with UFO
occupants measuring taller than 6 inches in height. It is also to be noted that
there has not been a single case of a UFO measuring greater than 3 feet in
diameter landing on Malaysian soil. These observations constitute a puzzle, and
if any explanations can be given it is hoped that some relationship with the
global UFO landings may give a clue to the UFO phenomena.
The following alleged encounters, the full stories of
which are incomplete since the principle witnesses cannot be located are listed
below.
CASE 1. Johore Bahru, 1970
Four boys going to school one morning saw a small UFO and tiny 6-inch tall
creatures. The boys soon reported it to the headmaster and since it occurred
in the school premises, the news broke out and soon the whole school were
combing the area looking for the creatures. One small burnt patch on the
ground was found. The UFO was gone.
CASE 2: Gambang near Kuantan, 1973
Two schoolboys claimed to have seen tiny humanoids only 3-inches tall in
the school compound. It is said that one of the creatures was actually caught
by the boys, which attracted the attention of a teacher. He arrived in time to
see it before the tiny creature finally managed to escape.
CASE 3: Bukit Mertajam, 1973
A group of boys playing football in a school field sighted a small UFO
landed nearby. From it emerged tiny creatures which immediately one of the
boys tried to catch. A beam of light was fired at the boy’s hand. The UFO
flew away.
CASE 4: Ipoh, 1973
A small UFO carrying tiny humanoids landed in a school field. Several
schoolboys who sighted it excitedly called their teachers. They came just too
late to see the object speeding away.
CASE 5: Miri, Sarawak, 1973
Several boys saw a humanoid about 6 inches tall wearing a white suit
cutting a fence wire with an intense beam of light. They tried to catch it but
it was lost in the bushes. No UFO was sighted.
CASE 6: Miri, Sarawak, 1973
Several people on vacation along the beach sighted a group of tiny beings
wearing white suits. There were about six or seven of them. They wore no mask
and resembled humans except for their tiny size. This group consisted of
possibly males and females. The females were notable because of the long hair.
An attempt to catch them failed. No saucer was sighted.
CASE 7: Bukit Mertajam, 1979
A small UFO landed on a field near some boys. A boy tried to catch a
3-inch creature that emerged from it. It fired a beam that temporarily
paralyzed his right arm. The UFO then flew away.
There were not less than 7 reported
landings in Malaysia from the first known landing in 1970 through May 1979. From
these reports there were 5 cases of close encounter with tiny humanoids and 2
other cases and 2 other cases reported from East Malaysia but no UFO was
sighted. The creatures measured, in all cases, either 3 inches or 6 inches tall.
All were equipped with a type of ray gun. They were described as well dressed in
one-piece suits. Some had slightly larger head and round eyes. The 3-inch
humanoids sometimes had two antenna-like structures protruding from the head.
Case 1,2,3,4 and 7 occurred in West Malaysia, all reported by schoolchildren and
all landings took place in school premises.
There were 3 more probable encounters with tiny
humanoids in Malaysia, but unfortunately the origin of the incidents cannot be
traced. One recent case, a probable landing, occurred on May 26, 1979, near
Kulim where the witnesses, 3 boys and 2 adults, claimed to have sighted a small
UFO hovering a few feet above the ground perhaps in an attempt to land since its
three landing gears were already down. As the witnesses tried to touch the
object an intense light ray shone into their eyes which temporarily blinded
them. This shows that the small UFO was intelligently controlled from inside.
Considering its small size, estimated about 2 feet in diameter, the UFO
occupants if any inside would have to measure about 3 inches tall to fit
comfortably in the object.
Of the 9 reported landings or encounters with
humanoids, 7 cases occurred in broad daylight. Only 2 landings were known to
have taken place at night. There have been no reports of encounters with UFO
occupants after dawn. Almost all of the UFOs sighted close range on the ground
or hovering close to the ground measured on the average less than 3 feet in
diameter.
UFOs that were sighted in the air were usually of large
size. There have been reports of a disc-shaped UFO was big as a house flying
over the hilly country in East Malaysia and a long elliptical object like a neon
light was also sighted high in the sky.
UFO sightings near or within school compounds have been
a worldwide occurrence. It is not surprising, therefore, that most of the
Malaysian landings occurred in or near the school area. UFOs, as suspected by
some researchers, have shown considerable interest in schools by the frequent
sightings recorded. In Malaysia the case may not be so considering the nature of
the land. From the air, Malaysia offers half a dozen types of landing grounds,
namely jungles, rubber and oil palm plantations, rice fields, tin mining areas,
and football fields. For a landing the thick jungles and rubber plantations do
not offer enough clearance. Rice fields and tin-mining areas are almost
isolated, and if there were any landings, most would go unnoticed (considering
also the small size of the UFO). The only landing spot that would attract
attention in the event of a landing would be a field.
Why do Malaysian encounters (the UFO and the humanoids)
come only in tiny sizes when compared to other parts of the world? Why do most
landings occur in the daytime when all other worldwide landing reports usually
happen at night? If deception is part of the UFO phenomenon then their tiny size
may allow them to easily escape unnoticed. Since there have been no reports of
encounters with bigger or human-size humanoids in the dark hours, then we again
ask, why do most landings have to be conducted in the day time?
It has been observed that UFOs were mainly attracted to
the fracture-zone areas of high seismic activity. In fact it can be seen that
earthquake-free areas or countries have fewer UFO reports compared to the bulk
of the UFO sightings reported originating from earthquake zones or areas that
have records of or have "felt" even the slightest earth tremors.
Malaysia is an earthquake-free country. The areas of
gravity and magnetic anomalies which UFOs may use to operate so excellently is
lacking in this region. Is the tiny size a compensation for the maneuverability
to land and take off on a magnetically stable area?
MINI-ENTITIES AT KUANTAN AIR BASE
A newspaper account of a bizarre
"believe it or not" CE3 case in Malaysia
by Ahmad Jamaludin
Sometime in 1975 or 1976 there was some excitement in Kuantan,
Malaysia, when a strange encounter with a 3-inch-tall man-like creature was
reported. The incident occurred about 9 miles from the town of Kuantan. And to
add to the excitement, the small UFO which ferried the tiny entity is said to
have landed right in the Royal Malaysian Air Force Base there.
There were three young witnesses to the encounter. The
third witness, not mentioned in the newspaper account below, is known to be
still schooling in Kuantan. I have tried to locate this witness and at this time
of writing have still not succeeded. The whereabouts of the other two witnesses
is not known and it is conceivable that they have moved to other Air Force
installations in the country with their parents.
Until the third witness can be located for the complete
story, I present below the newspaper report which was forwarded to me by a
friend and with the date of the newspaper report missing. It appeared on the
front page of the New Straits Times published in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. The
report entitled "Believe it or Not" had unfortunately omitted to
mention the UFO. I have tried to contact the reporter of this item but
unfortunately he resigned a few years ago, and is now working somewhere in the
government departments. Below is the short account of the incident as it
appeared in the paper.
"Kuantan, Thursday – A 3-inch-tall creature said to
resemble a human being, has become the talk of the RMAF base here since its
reported sighting, by a schoolboy two days ago. The story has also spread to
the town.
"Paul Lazario, 9, a pupil of the RMAF Primary
School said he saw the creature two days ago near a drain at the RMAF field.
It was stopping to drink water, he added. ‘I caught it but it escaped from
my grip and ran into some undergrowth near the drain,’ he said.
"It had two feelers on the head and held a
steel-like rod in its hand. A pistol was hanging from its waist. It was brown
in colour and looked like a man,’ he added.
"Paul said he related the incident to his
friends and in the evening three of them went to the spot near the field. And
according to schoolboy, Neo Lee Ann, 12, all three saw the creature moving
about on the area. ‘When it saw us, it ran into the undergrowth and
disappeared’ he said.
"A teacher of the school, Mr. Yew Kim Guan, said
when he heard the story he went to investigate. ‘There was no sign of the
creature in the area, but I saw a Red Indian-like wigwam beautifully weaved
out of grass. It was partly crushed,’ he said.
"He added he didn’t know whether to believe
the story,"
That is the end of the newspaper account of what only could be
described as a bizarre affair.
Comment
As far as humanoid encounters are concerned, there is
something strange going on in Malaysia. All the entities encountered have
measured 6 inches or lower. There is not a single reported encounter with the
UFO occupant more than 6 inches tall. To add further to this embarrassment, 90
percent of the witnesses have been schoolchildren. At the time of writing I have
documented 24 cases: about 50 percent of the tiny entities were sighted with
their little UFOs, and the remainder without the UFOs. If we reject these claims
as hallucination or hoaxes, then I can close shop with this UFO business since
there is nothing to report of significance. If we were to accept that the young
witnesses were reporting what they actually saw, then we have a very important
clue to work with.
