Hi,
On Friday (17/7/09) morning , I called Victor Sin Ka Hiew in Sandakan and was told that Lawrence Chong Shui Lung and Robert Foo Ka Hung were flying to Kota Kinabalu that morning.
I contacted Lawrence Chong re arrangement. After his Saturday golf, most likely we could have a drink together in the evening. I had not met Robert Foo Ka Hung since we left St Mary's Form V in 1970.
After my Saturday (18/7/09) badminton games, I soon got a call from Lawrence Chong, asking me to join him, Robert Foo Ka Hung and Lawrence Chung Hee Meng for a drink at Upperstar Pub in town. I was keen to meet up with Robert Foo and Hee Meng (whom I had not met for years). Shortly after I arrived, Edmund Kwan Kar Choi and Albert Lee also showed up. Sim Kang Loong was also contacted but could not make it. Tommy Siew was again not in town and away in China.
We talked about our St Mary's happenings ......
Although most were approaching 60 years of age, we talked about our St Mary's days as if we were still in our secondary school years! But we all knew we were getting on and looking forward to the Old Boys Reunion in Sandakan.
Whilst Kar Choi and myself had to go back for our family weekend dinner at home, Robert Foo Ka Hung, Lawrence Chung Hee Meng, Chong Shui Lung and Albert Lee went on for a dinner in town.
When we met up, we treasured our moments together.....once we were all together in the same classroom as boys and now we are fathers of adult sons and daughters.

Dear Clement,
Thanks for the interesting news, as always. Good thing you left out the juicy/saucy parts or else you might be sued for defamation!
Next time, try taking a photo of you guys jumping up like we did at the Sandakan airport roundabout.

Dear Hubert,
I called Victor Sin after reading his posting on the blog. Its just coincidence that Victor told me that Su Lun and Robert Fu were flying over to KK.
The reason I called Victor was to ask him to post his old boy photos on the blog. I offered to ask my Harrisons Sandakan branch secretary to scan the photos for him.
On this coming Saturday (31 July)I am going back to Sandakan to attend Sabah Commercial Employer Association AGM.Hope to meet up Dr Frederick Ong and Victor Sin, time permitting.
Rgds
