NEW DELHI - Singaporean Ng Kok Choong, who died in a paragliding accident in India, had cautioned other paragliders about the dangers of bad weather on Sunday (Oct 21), just a day before he went missing.
"He was a very sweet and humble person. Just the previous day (before he is suspected to have crashed) he made it home safely. There was bad weather and he told other paragliders to stay safe and told them where to go on the mountain range," Mr Sumit Nurpuri, a friend and fellow paraglider, told The Straits Times by telephone from Bir.
