      Journalist writes book on Bigfoot

      JOHOR BARU: A book on the much-talked-about Bigfoot, written by a journalist who covered sightings of the legendary creature here, will be out sometime this month.

      Sin Chew Daily journalist Lee Hoy Chin began work on the book, entitled Johor Bigfoot: The Beginning of the True Story, after covering eyewitness accounts on the creature. The book is a compilation of newspaper reports on Bigfoot and other details not published in newspapers.

      Soft launch: Lee and Sin Chew Jit Poh photographer Edmund Lek (left) with the book in Johor Baru recently.
      “Many people are searching for the truth about Bigfoot and I hope this book can help them learn about the subject better,” Lee said.

      He said he hoped to help promote tourism in Johor via the book, particularly its forests, which were a tourist attraction.

      The book also touches on issues like the environment and culture.

      “Many may argue that Bigfoot is just a superstition but I hope this book will pave the way for more research on the topic,” said Lee, who has written several other books.

          文學角度探討野人課題
          《柔佛野人真相》推介面世
          updated:2007-04-29 14:43:19 MYT

          (新山訊)第一本野人之書終於面世,這使一直爭論不休的野人事件,進入一個新的階段。這本書仍然沒有野人存在的直接證據,但是它以大量的人物訪問、腳印、柴窩、毛髮,和文化歷史證據,來說明野人由來已久,而人們對它的瞭解竟是如此的微少。

          《柔佛野人真相》是由媒體記者完成的一項工作,它厚156頁,附有100多張彩色相片,記載了近一年多來柔佛州人民追蹤尋覓野人的故事,也旁敲側擊談到社會大眾對野人的思索的方方面面。

          《柔佛野人真相》將在5月6日中午1時,在新山寬柔中學舉辦一項推介禮,由地不佬國會議員鄧文村主持推介禮。推介禮舉辦單位南藝讀書會會長蔡詩河週六(28日)在新聞發佈會上說,南藝讀書會將從文學的角度評述這本書,同時將演唱兩首森林歌曲,即中國歌曲《大森林的早晨》和有300多年歷史的意大利歌曲《綠樹成蔭》。

          保護森林保護野人

          協辦單位柔佛野生動物保護協會創辦人魏保欽、秘書鄭定華、理事魏獻來,彩虹出版社董事經理沈鈞積,南藝讀書會代表劉欽宓、沈美華,熱心人士鄭志文,該書漫畫創作人蔡順光,責任攝影陸家明,都出席了上述新聞發佈會。

          鄭志文表示,野人的存在是不爭的事實,他早年在美國唸書的時候就聽聞有野人。他深信,野人是人類進化過程中的一個階段。我們一定要保護森林,才能保護本地的野人。

          蔡詩河說,南藝讀書會的活動,包括協助本地寫作人出書時辦推介禮。本地創作和讀書風氣仍差強人意,有賴民間團體群策群力共同推動。該會以多元化的呈現方式,向觀眾講解書本的內容,協助寫作人推介創作。

          耗1年時間收集資料

          該書作者李開璇表示,他花費了1年時間,收集和撰寫這本野人之書。他曾參與尋覓野人的隊伍,在山間住逗留好幾天。並有三、四次前往野人出現的地方視察、拍攝和訪問。他也和本地科研人員周國球、洪美發、達蘭依斯邁教授等人常有聯絡,並吸取有關的知識。
          他說,本地有一批對野人興趣濃厚的人物,對他寫作此書有很大的幫助。這批人包括魏保欽、江為平及他們的伙伴們。
          《柔佛野人真相》是以報告文學的形式出現,通篇有一個尋覓真相的主題帶動,有一段4張照片的曲折故事、有森林的散文式描寫、有野人現象在現代人心目中扭曲現象的描述。

          李開璇說,這裡寫的主要是文學的野人、傳統的野人、記憶的野人,文化的野人;而文學的野人比科學的野人先一步走進社會,是合理的現象。文學的野人是大眾化的東西,而科學的野人則能使它進入官方的殿堂,取得世界性的聲譽。

          重新整理野人報導

          他說,他寫這本書並不是為了賺錢,其實它並沒有給他帶來多少物質上的回酬,主要的目的是因為散亂的新聞報導,使野人的真面目難於呈現,這導致官方至今未曾對野人事件有個明確的宣佈,也無意制訂任何保護性措施和條文。這樣下去,柔佛人民很有可能在森林的大量採伐下,喪失這個具有非常意義的物體。

          他說,目前世界各地的野人研究都有低沉的現象,主要原因是研究人員無法與活體的野人交往,而柔佛州這一片森林得天獨厚,竟然保留了至少2種野人,這是非常令人驚歎之事。

          他說,野人之書推售後,民眾間的回響令人鼓舞。有致少4位人士表示,他們本身或他們的親戚朋友見過野人,其中包括比高大體型的野人更接近人類的矮種野人的故事。這本書的發售,取得了拋磚引玉的作用,並且使野人事件從零散而逐漸完整,從針鋒相對而互相認同。本地的研究人員現在重新萌起研究這個課題的興趣,並將在不久重新開設野人網站。 (星洲日報/大柔佛‧2007.04.28)
