..everywhere I look around.





We attended another wedding dinner last night at Mega Hotel between the bride Suzanne Laong,daughter of Mr. & Mrs. Clement Etan & her groom Kevin Khoo,son of Mr. & Mrs. Khoo Teck Woon of Kota Bahru,Kelantan.Did Nik Aziz come? Nay,too busy. ha..ha.. Despite the rain,the ballroom was packed by friends & relatives who came from as far as Penang,S'pore & of course from Kelantan itself. The groom was all smiles when he saw such a huge turnout of his friends from his hometown & his work place in Miri who attended the dinner last night that he requested the photographer to take pictures of them together.





If I had not had the handshakes with the parents of the wedded couple at the entrance of the hall, the function could be mistaken for another church dinner because once we entered the hall,church members were at hand to welcome us & then followed by the emcee & mr. speaker. Like last week's dinner,it was the Taman Tunku's church members who helped out Alex & Rina. It is a good thing to give a helping hand to friends because this sort of occasion needs all the extra help for one never knows when one's daughter or son gets married,we may also need the help we can get. Right???.






Mr. speaker that night was Mr. Davis Jeram who went to great length to do the story telling about how & when the couple met. See whether I can summarise in two sentences...here goes:



They studied together at UTM,Skudai;cupid struck when a friend introduced Kevin to Suzanne to help her out with a project which needed somebody with mechanical engineering knowledge to come to the rescue. Like most people say, the rest is history....

4th September,2008

Parkcity Everly Hotel,Miri.



Motto: Towards Maximum Excellence



This morning,at the invitation of Ms. Florince Christy,CEO of Maxcel Institute of Management, about 12 committee members of SIDS,Miri attended the 7th Graduation Ceremony of the said educational institution. YB Senator Dato Sri Empiang Jabu came all the way from Kuching to grace the convocation ceremony. About 58 students received their scrolls this morning. The Dewan Usun Apau was packed by the graduating students,staff,parents & well wishers. After the welcoming address by Ms. Florince Christy,YB Senator Dato Empiang Jabu delivered her speech touching on the realities of life that the students would be facing once they're out in the real world. Be streetwise. Some may find that the course or the chosen field of studies they did might not be at all related to the job that they would eventually end up doing. She did some sharing on her experiences as a teacher,mother,wife & politician. She advised the graduates that though there're a lot of things that they know through their education,advice or rather words of wisdoms from parents should not be ignored. Parents should not be afraid to tell their children off if they are found to be doing things that they should not be doing. She also added, to go beyond 'one graduate per family'. The giving of the scrolls followed soon after that & then the photo taking session.

According to Ms. Florince,her students are well sought after by the service/hospitality industries. A few of the students could not make it for the ceremony as they were away working.If dear readers have children who are interested to be in the hospitality & management industires,please do visit the institute. They also have twinning programmes with some universities in UK & Australia.
