A reunion lunch of ex-colleagues of Angkasa Jurutera Perunding Sdn. Bhd. (AJP, which I joined from May 2, 1982 till October 31, 1986) was organized by Lee SE at 12.30pm, Gold Dragon City Restaurant, Taman Paramount, P.J.
The three most senior ex-colleagues present were Johnny Wong (85 yo, then Director), Chai Bui Lun (85 yo, then Head of Structural Engineering Section and my mentor) and Raymond Kok Hon Mun (79 yo, then Office Manager).
Others present were: CK Cheong (& his 27 yo son), Lee SE, Ching CK, Mack, Phang AL, MK Lim, CK Lee, Kenny Looi, Alex Lai, YW Lee, KK Ng, Steven Ong and Melinda Chia (the only lady). Total no. of participants was 18 taking up two tables.
The dishes were very sumptuous including: shark fin soup with crab meat, crispy chicken with Thai sauce, deep-fried spare ribs, butter prawns, steamed red snapper fish, braised mushroom with fungi and fish curd, Hokkien mee, sea coconut with soya milk and Japanese mochi.
CK Cheong was very generous for footing the bill for all of us, in spite of our suggesting to split and share the bill.
A large birthday cake was also brought in by the organizer for us to celebrate the belated birthdays for Johnny (April) and Chai (August).
The lunch ended at 2.30pm and we really had a very good time among ourselves sharing past and present moments of our lives!
