Late Uncle Pakam was the enigma of comparative extremes in expression of incidences in a humurous way. Somehow, I still treasure the various words and sentences that were released from the mouth of the man..the engima himself. You dont joke a xxx joke in a aaa joke. I will have to recall in the exact way it sounded and the way it was spoken.
1. His traps were reaped by someone gone earlier in the jungle that morning. Looking very annoyed he came along.
2. This plougher, an Israeli (converted) happens to plough out some eels (nga gul), which he could'nt eat as his Israeli faith doesnt permit him.
" Hungo Hungo He Pakam, nga gul kakhoi doh e hung kilah o !!!
" He katijo, ASSSSSSS kaki pah valle, khoi khoi jinlang ahithei leh VOHCHA jong khoi doh go in lang ei pe kit no..."
His description of the "Shaktiman truck" which was felt quite powerful in climbing up steep slopes on the mountains and carry heavy loads......
" Saap te in Shaktiman hi jong lhaa lo na a aneiju hichu........"
Description of the lady who was actually quite ugly...
" Hiche nu khu hiche kal valla ahoimo je umlouva ahitai. Hiche kal valla ahoimo be leh hung le hoi doh ding ahitai".
