    to me


    Siva Prasanna Krishnan has left a new comment on your post "Teachers Ooohh My Teachers.!!!!":

    Hi

    I check the Batu Pahat High School page once a month or so and hope to find some familiar names. I found Christopher Reed who taught there. I taught in that school for about a year. I taught GP in the Science classes. I keep in touch with one of my ex students Kour Nam Ngam who is a pharmacist and resides in Tawau Sabah. Ng Yew Teck is a doctor in Penang i believe. I hope i can contact Mr Amarjit Singh. I wish you all the best. I taught from about April 1973 until June 1974 when i enrolled in spore u to do my dip-ed.

    to Siva


    Dear Mr Siva,

    "To Sir With Love" then......thanks for visiting our newly created blog. Just to update you....Dr Ng Yew Teck is practicing his O&G in Cheras (near the junction on the way to JJ Maluri. Mr Amarjit Singh (my favourite GP teacher, those days...."To Sir With Love" again!) now residing in Seremban (he told me it is a "pensioners' town!) and as I had mentioned in the blog that I was "unknowingly" lecturing a group of executive MBA students where one of them was Mr Amarjit's son! What a small world....and "what goes around, comes around" indeed! I'll let you know if I managed to trace back his son's call card (his son was with Marcus Evan so that I can get his dad's handset number.......sth like that!

    Thank you Sir and Cheers!

  5. Talk about overdoing nostalgia, but then why not when there were so much to be nostalgic about, more so if Tasik Y can talk. Is it still there - I haven't been back to BP for so long. Both your enthusiasms are catching, particularly after listening to all those down memory lane songs, Ahmad Jais's Bahtera Merdeka included (Aishah's version is not bad too). Syabas to DrIAJ and Datuk Mus for your high flying careers and particularly for providing this IT savvy meeting place for us to reconnect. It would be lovely to at last know how everyone is and what they have been up to, dah berapa cucu - Midah Baharum, Ruthie, Zainon etc. I believe theres also another Zainah in my class. I have also informed Rusdi through his wife Wan to check out this site. Both by the way have retired and from what I glimpsed on Facebook, indulge a lot in world travel. I have now and then met Najib and Fuaad (two 'a's?) courtesy of ZZ - they haven't change much. Zul and I of cos did not make it to happily ever after but no fear of awkwardness there, for with age and failing memories, we are now friends. Thanks again. Zainah Kamat.

  6. Thanks so much Ma'am!
    It is indeed good to hear from you with those "nostalgic" comments. I've not ZZ for umpteen years actually and missed him when he attended the wedding of Dato'Ahmad Zaidi's son wedding last year or year before last. Appreciate very much if you are still in contact the the "remaining members of the lost tribe" especially Rusdi, Midah, Khatijah, Ruthihan, Zainon, etc.........please ask cordially "nostalgically" to join the newly created blog. Yes you're absolutely right, it is indeed a good forum (non threathening and non-offensive)to reflect back on those days while we were in HSBP Class of 1972/73 Sixth Formers.

    Salam and warmest regards.

  7. Salam Zainah,
    Its Mush here. Hows your elder Sister, Cik Gu Hamidah Kamat?who taught me while I was in TIGS. Excuse me, my memory is failing again. Hope I got the right name. How is she? Pls convey my salam to her.
    I found Khatijah baharum while I was in London and then visited her while shes in Washington. Thats when we first met, some years ago. Khatijah Baharum married my husband's friend. What a coincidence!and surprisingly Khatijah Baharum now resides in Bandar Baru Bangi, where I am staying too.I am getting her in the blog.
    Its nice to hear from you. Rope in the other girls for the coming get together venue Tasik U, BP...I can recall that now!Thanks for those picture Ismail.
    Mush
