Ino patalukile kakyombo ka Lightbearer, mutyima waunsansa paunenene Eric Ewins amba: “Frank, wanenene amba wi mutonge Siam (dyalelo Tailande) bu obe mwaba. Ye ako kotwakushiya. Pano, shilwila’ko!’ Mu bidyoma mwauntyumuka: ‘Ino ponadi ñimene nkyadipo ndyukile ne kudi kibundi kya Siam kwine!’” Eric walombola Frank amba ukafika’ko shi akekidile kudiye ku Kuala Lumpur, witwa dyalelo bu Malezi.
