-suffering a great entertainer-

Allahyarham Sudirman Hj. Arshad was stricken with a disease that was more of the spiritual kind rather than physical. In the Malay word, such illness is believed to be generated through black magic or witch-craft by a bomoh. Modern medical and specialist doctors (including his medical doctor brother Dr. Ruslan) couldn’t remedy or find the source of his ailment.
It is said that during his illness, while under the care of his sister, Datin Radiah, he would scream every time the clock strikes twelve midnight. And during those times, at his sister’s house, they would find some strange things like a dead rat or strips of colored papers and other unexplained items strewn into the house compound.
In the Malay word, the art of black magic is still alive although not as active as in the old days, and it is still possible to do misery to people.
He was rumored to have been dying from so many speculations from overdose drugs to even aids which was the disease of the day then.
Sudirman died at 4.00 am in the morning on the 22 February 1992, aged 37, at his sister’s (Datin Radiah) house, at Lucky Garden, Bangsar, Kuala Lumpur. He was brought back for burial in his hometown Temerloh, Pahang and was buried at Chengal Muslim Cemetery, Temerloh near the graves of his parents. His sister recently announced he died from a stroke also known as cerebrovascular accident.
