Steward when you are in Kulim in September, should get Subramaniam to join in and you can show him this photo and perhaps he can
recognize the other Indians In fact Subramaniam stays close or next to the Kulim Inn.
I have the contacts of the following :-
Khee Son Lye is in Johor Baru but his phone did not respond, should be able to track him down Goh Chu Ting, Liew Chin Nam, Kow Ching Chuan,
Tang Siah Jin, of course Ron, Mah Sin Nam is in Cheras, KL with his son, will get him, Robert Lim Yoke Seng
Second Row
Need to work on many, but have Tang Siak Hock, Low Yuen Choy, Subramaniam
Third Row
Need more work but have following, Loh Kee Chiang, Auyong San Fong and through him will track known his cousin from Machang Bubok and Heng Boon Kwong, of course Chew Huat Guan and Low Chin Seong.
The total count so far is 23 and anthor 10 should be able, the rest have doubts. We have a number from other years that may like to join us including the teachers another 10. I think the numbers with their spouse / partners, we should be a total of about 70 to 80 and it is a nice number for a reunion.


Stewart, I may not be able to join you in Kulim this September, have a wedding which I must attend on 22nd Sept. But would love to see you in Kl.
If at all possible and my old place is available to you but it is BASIC as we are moving in the next two months. In fact I will be busy with the renovation work in September and October. We are moving into an apartment, just lockup go and leave it to the security concept, besides only two folks and a maid.
We had a program here on TV on fishing in the Kimberly which you plan to go August 8th next year. It is interesting . We have just returned from 10 a day trip to Alaska, the family, two boys (Men now), daughter in law, the two grand sons and of course Lily and myself. It is a different kind of holiday, The boys caught 4 halibuts and the average weight 12 pounds, each person with the license we were entitled to 2 halibuts.
Bye for now
Teddy
