Fwd: FW: THE PASSAGE OF TIME LEAVES OUT NO ONE !!!

Dear All,

This was sent by Richard some weeks ago which I should have put on our blog but never got round to doing it until now. I think this photo is really a gem, with all these young & handsome men. (Sad though, Lee Len Fook is not with us now in this land of the living).

Richard,

Was this taken in Sandy Beach (or whatever the name is)?

Ronnie 同学，晚上好，

英文写不好， 只好用汉文代写了。 我孩子从学校回来时告诉我"你哥哥子庆，说你上个星期在山打根时找过我三次，失望而归"。真是对不起，那段日子，我是在亚庇 Kota Kinabalu，和外孙，孩子，女婿一起过我六十岁的生日。

日子过的太快，一眨眼六十年人生路就过去了，这些风风雨雨的日子里，真体会到"人在江湖，心不在已"，我在想是不是还有很多的日子还没过呢。废话少说吧，还是怪老天爷在玩弄我们吧。

My god bless you always,

Phun

Hello Everybody,

I am trying to post on the blog for the very first time.

I am surprised to read that I have so much $$$$$ and I thought it was indeed a sweet dream and I don't want to wake up and also afraid to wake up to face the cruel reality of life..

Clement is too kind to me to tell you all that I enjoy such "luxury" in life and that was because he only saw one side of the coin ... seeing me spending all my $$$ in true Bumiputra spirit.

My philosophy in life is from "From Dust We Come and To Dust Shall We Return" and for every dollar I earn, I want to spend $1.10 if i could and I would .... I am a Born Free Man to live my full life in this world and do not want to have regrets in life later .... Amen!

I prefer my own life style - as we do not know what tomorrow will bring you. I want to enjoy and see this pleasant world whilst I can still walk and exist on this planet. This is my way of finding happiness and fulfillment in life...... I don't care what other people think of me as I do not owe anyone a living. As long as I earn a decent living, enough to lead my care-free life style and do no bad deed against my conscience, I will have peace in mind, here and hereafter. I am a believer of the philosophy of "Cause & Effect" meaning "You Sow What You Reap".

Whenever I am in a position to do so, I do charity and community work ... giving small donations and leading young people who are lost in their path and "coach" them back to the right track in their life journey - morally and physically - to find love again!

Even now, sometimes I am also lost myself and need to seek love and happiness before I sing Auld Lang Sye- that's the irony of life!

RONNY MET UP WITH KK SAPI GANG MEMBERS

Hi,

On Sunday (7 June) I got a urgent late night call from Thomas Siew asking me to join him to welcome our US returned and ex Sapi Gang Member flying in from Sandakan. Ronny Chung has not met Thomas for over 30 years and Thomas was most excited to see how he looks and how he talks .....

On Monday morning, before I could warm up my office chair, Thomas called me at 9 am to say that he was driving over from his Api Api Apartment but would want to go to the airport in my company car instead. This was to give Ronny a grand welcome! So we drove off but were early, sitting in the car waiting.... then Ronny in his Yankee cap walked out of the Arrival Lounge towards my car. I pointed to Thomas that he was Ronny but Thomas wasn't so sure as he had not seen his gang budddy for > 30 years. It was a warm meeting at the airport and we decided to adjourn to a kopitiam (coffee shop) for drinks and "catch up" chit chat.

I brought my camera for the occassion as the last mini reunion in Burger King in Damai KK was not captured in photos ............ We asked the pretty daughter of the coffeee shop boss to snap the shots for us. Now, you old boys can get a first glimpse of (you can view the ENLARGED photo by clicking on the photo above) Thomas Siew who is so fortunate to be blessed with lots of $$$$$$, a strong and robust waist (maintained in good shape with constant live exercises in bed) and so able to still enjoy his envious "happy go lucky life style" after all these years! Ronny was most keen to join Thomas on his next China "canon" trip but he was forewarned by Thomas that his heart must be large enough for more than one woman!

The meeting was not too long as Ronny needed to catch his 12 noon flight to KL where he would stay in his relative house in K Lumpur USJ Section 9 for two weeks. Believe that Ronny would squeeze the very best out of his stay in this most vibrant city. Ronny, without a middle age bulge, still looks 40s in his cap and therefore should still be in demand and much sought out by our Asian & China dolls (compared to the hugh Yankee/ African/Latino varieties in Texas or LA) in this truly Asian city.

Just before we left the coffee shop, a scuffle broke off between Thomas and Ronny as they tried to settle the drink bill leaving me as the innocent bystander.

We dropped Ronny off at KKIA at 11 am (Monday 8 June) and we treasured every moment when we were together chatting about "those were the days".
