Update 28th October, 2009 from Francis Lim, 60 hrs to the Gathering
Okay for latest updates.
Loy Chee Yu has found Chee Keng Poh and Chin Loy Onn. Both Keng Poh and Loy Onn are joining us. Keng Poh will bring his wife and two children. I spoke to Loy Onn last night and he said he is coming alone. Mossadeq has found Azhar who will also join us . Robert Som Sai Cheong also confirmed Azhar is coming. Robert has volunteered to be the traffic warden so call him at 0193362443 if you are lost. Mohd Nor will bring his wife, daughter and two grandchildren. Anyone with great grand children? Joon Say confirmed Dr Yap Hock Kee will join us. Dr Yap just called me to ask for directions.
Roland informed Jolly Kiang is not able to take leave so he can’t join us. I understand Mok will try to locate Foo Pok Boo whose family house is just doors away from Mok’s house.
Isa regrets he still can’t make it and Joon Say has sent him a heart rending plea that we are all meeting because of him. He return last year, look up the telephone directory, found Joon Say and we met. That meeting spawned the idea of a reunion for this year. Koh Pah is also encouraging Isa to make it. Kim Meng maybe you can give a reply to MiSA’s great message to you and he may come just because of you.
Roland has reported that 7 teachers will join. Nellie Khoo, Gan Chui Peng, Audrey Lim, Ng Sin Min, Phoot Kok Long, Jee Kim Joon and Oh Kim Hin have confirmed. Michael Rodrigues will try. Peter Yong Swee Onn is leaving for the UK on the same day.
Sue Lin found Lai Sam Hoo but Sam Hoo cant join us. I called Sam Hoo on Monday night and he reconfirmed that he can’t make it. Lai Sam Hoo’s house no is +6567892339 and mob is +6597429316. Anyone can try to convince him to thumb a lift from Sue Lin to join us this Saturday?
Boon Siew is torn between joining us or not joining us. He says even if he cud join us he has to be back in Kiwiland by 3 Nov. Any of you can help to convince our Boon Siew to join us? Chandra and I have tried. There must be one of us who knows what can make him come. David Samuel Ong, can you?
Koh Pah met up with Simon Gan Chin Hock many years ago. Chin Hock it seems made his millions shortly after he left school but has his sad story to tell. Koh Pah is trying to track Chin Hock and if found we can hear the story from the horse’s mouth. Koh Pah has also narrated Sree Dharan’s sad story.
Melaka Hari Ini reported our event last Sunday. I understand NST will report our event tomorrow. Kim Meng is promoting the website for the alumni and he will sponsor it for two years. He is looking for our support in the form of financial sponsor and moderating the articles.
So the people joining will be:
Benny n wife(2) , Chandra n wife (4) , kohpah (5), pang boon (6),hionglim n wife(8), chiensiong (9), naim(10), mdnor n wife(12), kamal (13), prabha(14), chekmin(15), kimseet(16), sweekim(17), yewkay(18) Dr yap hock kee(19), william(20),ramly(21),david n wife(23), Joonsay (24), kimong(25),saicheong(26),
Roland has booked one room for Chee Keng Poh and his family (two adults and two children) and one bed for Liang Cheow (as requested by Sue Lin). I think Roland is also booking for Md Nor.
Lee Garden is a brand new café with rooms for lodging carved out of an old bungalow and is convenient for those who want to wine and dine and chit chat after which just walk to the room to sleep.
Still missing are Zainal Abidin, Chong Chin Soon,Law Hock Long, Lim Aun Wei, Juma’at,, Abdullah Hashim, Chan Heng Chuan, Bock Hong Chin, etc…..Its good the missing list is getting shorter. Folks we only have two days left to add to the missing list and to locate our lost friends. Please help to add and help to locate.
As this is our last lap, please let us know if the above confirmation are not correct. Also those who need accommodation to be arranged, please let us know.

Something useful when we are passing 55
Keep a syringe or needle in your home to do this... It's amazing and an unconventional way of recovering from stroke, read it through it can help somebody one day.
This is amazing.
Do take a minute to read this.
My father was paralysed and later died from the result of a stroke. I wish I knew about this first aid before.
When stroke strikes, the capillaries in the brain will gradually burst. (Irene Liu)
When a stroke occurs, stay calm.
No matter where the victim is, do not move him/her. Because, if moved, the capillaries will burst.
Help the victim to sit up where he/she is to prevent him/her from falling over again and then the blood letting can begin .
If you have in your home an injection syringe that would be the best.
Otherwise, a sewing needle or a straight pin will do.
1. Place the needle/pin over fire to sterilize it and then use it to prick the tip of all ......10 fingers.
2. There are no specific acupuncture points, just prick about an mm from the fingernail.
3. Prick till blood comes out.
4. If blood does not start to drip, then squeeze with your fingers.
5. When all 10 digits is bleeding, wait a few minutes then the victim will regain consciousness.
6. If the victim's mouth is crooked , then pull on his ears until they are red.
7. Then prick each earlobe twice until two drops of blood comes from each earlobe.
After a few minutes the victim should regain consciousness.
Wait till the victim regains his normal state without any abnormal symptoms then take him to the hospital.
Otherwise, if he was taken in the ambulance in a hurry to the hospital, the bumpy trip will cause all the capillaries in his brain to burst.
If he could save his life, barely managing to walk, then it is by the grace of his ancestors.
'I learned about letting blood to save life from Chinese traditional doctor, Ha Bu Ting, who lives in Sun Juke.
Furthermore, I had practical experience with it. Therefore, I can say this method is 100% effective.
In 1979, I was teaching in Fung Gaap College in Tai Chung.
One afternoon, I was teaching a class when another teacher came running to my classroom and said in panting,
'Ms Liu, come quick, our supervisor has had a stroke !'. I immediately went to the 3rd floor.
When I saw our supervisor, Mr. Chen Fu Tien, his colour was off, his speech was slurred , his mouth was crooked - all the symptoms of a stroke.
I immediately asked one of the practicum students to go to the pharmacy outside the school to buy a syringe, which I used to prick Mr. Chen's 10 fingers tips.
When all 10 fingers were bleeding (each with a pea-sized drop of blood), after a few minutes, Mr. Chen's face regained its colour and his eyes' spirit returned,
But his mouth was still crooked . So I pulled on his ears to fill them with blood .
When his ears became red ,
I pricked his right earlobe twice to let out two drops of blood .
When both earlobes had two drops of blood each , a miracle happened .
Within 3-5 minutes the shape of his mouth returned to normal and his speech became clear.
We let him rest for a while and have a cup of hot tea , then we helped him go down the stairs, drove him to Wei Wah Hospital . He rested one night and was released the next day to return to school to teach.. Everything worked normally.
There were no ill after effects.
On the other hand, the usual stroke victim usually suffers Irreparable bursting of the brain capillaries on the way to the hospital.
It is such a horrible thing to happen in ones life.
If we can all remember this blood letting method and start the life saving process immediately, in a short time, the victim will be revived and regain 100% normality.
