OE1978 Classmates Gathering, Taiping 23 January 2016


It was suggested that we organised a gathering at Taiping on the 23 January 2016. The proposed venue was the Flemington Hotel and we were to meet there for dinner.

I arrived at the Hotel by 6.00 PM. After I got into my room, I took a short rest and a shower. Ban Heng was kind enough to made the dinner reservations. There were 14 of us who could make it for this gathering. Our former School Senior Assistant, Mr Thong was also present (Mr Thong is the father of our mate, Thong Chee Meng).

The guys who attended (other than myself) were - Teo Teck Boo, Azhar Hamid, Hasmi, Lim Meng Yew, Karunamurthy, Leong Kok Wai, Heng Gaul,Thong Chee Meng, Teik Eng, Ooi Ban Heng, Ong Seong Hock, Chin Chee Seong, Quah Tee Ho.

Someone suggested that each of us were to introduced ourselves and to tell what everyone had gone through since we left school. Teck Boo took the honour to start first. Then, one by one, stood up to share his individual story.

Mr Thong was happy to see us all. He appreciated very much that we still remember him. He reminded us to help support the School in any whichever way we can.

After dinner, we went up to the roof-top bar by the pool, to continue our chit-chat over drinks. By 12.45 AM, we decided to adjourn. Until the next gathering.
