Foong Yee was a 24-year-old probationary police inspector when the May 13, 1969 riots broke out.
Fifty years on, his experience driving through the blazing and lawless streets of Kuala Lumpur remains fresh in his memory.

Along the way, he experienced a brush with death when he drove into a group of army personnel by accident.
Seconds from death, he recalls feeling the muzzle of a gun on his temple.
