malarky

penah tengok documentari pasal secret service ni dalam nat geo ...lama dah.....mmg detail keje diorang nih...kalau ada lawatan president, diorang dah recce tempat kurang2 sebulan awal.....lepas tu kalau macam negara yang berisiko tinggi diorang ambik alih 100% total security....sikit pun tak caya ngan local security agency.....pernah diceritakan oleh seorang penceramah semasa kursus...najis VVIP mereka ni pun tak dibenarkan memasuki sistem pembentungan local...siap divert ke speacial tank dan dibawa balik ke US....alasannya...takut najis tu dianalisadan maklumat tentang kesihatan dan tabiat makan merekan akan diketahui oleh musuh atau unknown parties.
