Yusof Lateef: 'I flew our PAP flag at Everest Base Camp'
Yusof Lateef, People’s Action Party (PAP) Marine Parade Branch Secretary, recently accomplished a remarkable feat by trekking to the South Base Camp of Mount Everest for the second time. Twenty five years earlier, he had marked his first successful trek by carrying a Singapore flag to Everest Base Camp.
At the Base Camp, he commemorated his latest accomplishment by flying the PAP flag and the Marine Parade 50th anniversary flag. He left both flags at a friend’s trekking lodge in Gorakshep, on his return trek down. Read and watch.
