I opened the door, to my horror, a few skeletons lay there, chained on the wall.
Okay, time to recap. I and my friends, Jack and Peter, were playin around an old, abandoned mansion. !e weretold that no one was allowed to enter. "owe#er, curiosity o#ercame us and we picked the lock, rantin us entranceinto the sacred lair of the unknown.
$t the siht of the skeletons, the three of us were completely stunned. Our %aw hun wide open for a few minutesbefore we came back to our senses. &y si'th sense told me that somethin was about to o wron, so I ured the
other two to back out of the mansion.

!e #entured deeper into the mansion. /he desin looked like some sort of torture room, or a prison. E#en thouh Iwas afraid, I was eaer to disco#er more. /hrouhout the lair, we did not lose siht of skeletons or spider webs./hese were at e#ery corner, at e#ery turn. /he occasional howls from a distance made the hair on our backs standup straiht. !e finally arri#ed at a lon hallway. Jack picked up a piece of wood and lihted it up with his lihter./he flame seared at first, but after it simmered down, I was able to see the walls clearly. /here were ancientwritins, the kind we usually see in an Eyptian ra#e robber mo#ie. $s the e'pert in history, Jack tried his best todecipher the car#ins. &eanwhile, Peter leaned towards the wall to catch his breath. $t that #ery moment, a coldchill went down my spine.
(!atch out0+ I shouted.
efore he could react, that portion of the wall he was leanin aainst flipped, trappin him on the other side. $ll hecould let out was a loud shriek and he #anished behind the walls. I pounded aainst the wall, shoutin his name.
Only then did I know what real terror felt like. "owe#er, the chance of rescuin him was bleak. I sank to theround, desolated and hopeless.
(Let*s et out of here, we ha#e to inform the adults0+ suested Jack.
I ot to my feet swiftly and both of us sped throuh the buildin. &y heart was racin. I knew that daner may bewaitin at the ne't corner.

In a split second, my head turned 167 derees. $ iantic marble pillar fell on Jack. I mustered all the strenthfrom e#ery sinle cell in my body, tryin to lift it up, to no a#ail. &y eyes were watery. I was completely out of
ideas.
(8a#e yourself, lea#e me, please,+ muttered Jack, with a weak tone.
/his was certainly a touh decision for me. $ll the moments we had spent toether flashed throuh my mind. "owcould I lea#e him now $s the fire was close to sealin my only e'it, I knew that I had to be rational. I di#ed for my
escape route.
/ears rolled down my cheeks as the mansion erupted into flames behind me.

8eperkara lai, satu daripada lankah3lankah untuk mempromosikan sektor
pelanconan neara ini adalah denan menadakan kempen /ahun &alaysia &alaysia
denan lebih berkesan dan melibatkan lebih banyak penyertaan. /ahun &elawat &alaysia
ialah kempen untuk menalakkan pelancon datan ke neara kita denan lebih besar
bilanannya. Gempen yan diadakan sepan%an tahun ini menyediakan pelbaai acara untuk
menarik minat pelancon datan ke neara ini. &isalnya, pelbaai acara kebudayaanpelbaai kaum dipersembahkan untuk para pelancon. Penyertaan pelbaai pihak

pelanconan di neara kita.
2slub dan minha% yan lain ialah menhapuskan atau menurankan cukai belian
baranan di neara ini. erdasarkan rekod Perbadanan Pelancongan Malaysia %&'(,
pelancon asin yan datan ke sini bukan sekadar untuk menikmati keindahan alam
semula %adi neara, bahkan %ua untuk membeli3belah. &ereka inin men%adikan percutian

kayu penukur untuk mereka datan ke destinasi pelanconan yan men%adi pilihan di hati
mereka. Gita tidak seharusnya lupa denan elaat seelintir masyarakat yan menambil
kesempatan ke atas pelancon. Oleh itu, )nit *eselamatan Pelancongperlu ditubuhkan
untuk membantu pihak polis menanani %enayah ke atas pelancon. Ge%adian3ke%adianrool, mencabul kehormatan, menhendap, peras uut, rompak dan tipu harus ditanani
secepat munkin. Ini perlu dilakukan aar pelancon asin terus berkun%un ke neara ini.

menuntunkan. Oleh itu, usaha mema%ukan industri pelanconan bukanlah terletak atas pundak
pihak berkuasa semata3mata kerana bertepuk sebelah tanan takkan berbunyi. 8emua pihak

&alaysia sebaai destinasi pelanconan yan hebat, bak kata pepatah kalau tidak dipecahkan
ruyung, di mana akan mendapat sagunya. Jika tidak, seala keunikan dan kehebatan budaya
pelbaai kaum di neara ini akan sia3sia dan tidak dapat diketenahkan untuk dinikmati oleh
pelanconan tempatan dan mancaneara. Ger%asama dan kesunuhan daripadasemua pihak yan
