Certificate of Merit - K.E. VII School Band 1980

After MCE (Malaysia Certificate of Education) examinations in 1978, I came back to the school to participate and assist the school band. Those were the years the band did not have a formal music instructor, therefore, the seniors were responsible to help to coach and train the existing and new members. I also assisted the school's Boy Scouts during those years. How was that for multi-tasking?

In 1980, Mr Ng Peng Khoon put in a recommendation to the school Principal, Mr Long Heng Hua, that a Certificate of Merit be awarded to me. Since I was not a regular student, the certificate was awarded to me in the Principal's office and was witnessed by Mr Ng.

It was really an honour to receive the certificate and truly the feeling was most valueable to me. I still have the certificate to this day.
