This route was named based on a 16th century novel in china-
Journey to the West, a main charater called Sun Wukong, also known as the Monkey King. In the novel, he is a monkey born from a stone who acquires supernatural powers through Taoist practices. After rebelling against heaven and being imprisoned under a mountain by the Buddha, he later accompanies the monk Xuanzang on a journey to retrieve Buddhist sutras from India.
And the name "Sun" was changed to "Soon" as suggested by a pioneer Penang climber to appreciate Soon’s efforts who have contributed, setup and bolted the additional new routes in Jesselton’s wall and included the hardest and the first ever 8a grade route(arguable) in Penang.
(Remarks :
For Png climber : 8a with limited hand & foot hold access which marked in white color paint)
Each person, at some stage in their life, has had a dream or fantasy of doing or becoming something. To climb a 8a route sound impossible and hard
to imagine for me ever since I started climbing. However, until I setup and bolted this new route. Everything seems possible and reasonably doable.
It was my mind holding me back all this while. So, let’s live our dream today and "I'm-Possible !" - Soon.
