Farewell Lunch for Wai Tuck

After visiting old friends in Johor Bahru, Wai Tuck was given a great farewell lunch at Jalan Badik's famous claypot rice kopitiam, at Taman Sri Tebrau, as he jet home to Australia. Of those who attended include Mun Soon, Eric, Gee Tong, Kai Ming and of course Wai Tuck. Bon Voyage!

Happy Birthday Cheam Heng Teng

The only one among us, whose birthday falls on a double-seven dated (7-7-2017). In fact, you can see there is another 7 behind the year 2017. Maybe a good idea to make him a big cake that looked like "77" in shape when he celebrates his 77th birthday.

Anyway, Cheam is preserving himself well, as you can see his youthfulness in the picture taken a week ago from this blog publication. We certainly looking forward to many more great years ahead, and wish him full of health, vitality and happiness with every birthday. Happy Birthday, Heng Teng!

Revisiting the SDJ School again in 2017

Three of our SDJ74 group members visited the school yesterday, and got a roaring welcome from the school's current principal, teachers and students. They were shown around the school by none other than the warm and friendly Principal himself. The students were made to line up and kissed their hands one-by-one, which of course is quite disgusting, but then its the latest fad in our new SDJ. Below are some memorable pictures taken by the team.

Later in the evening, they also had a re-union dinner at the New Lucky Restaurant for a holy great time. Most of us had not met Wai Tuck for 40+ years, so this is indeed a milestone dinner.

Happy Birthday to Master Woo Kim Liong

Happy Birthday to Mr Woo (right) 2nd July 2017

Mr Woo celebrated his Birthday this year in Singapore/Malaysia area. Together with his lovely family he managed to catch up with as many of his all pals as possible. The picture showed his having a durian session at the famous Sims Avenue durian street in Singapore.

Certainly a rare occasion to be able to celebrate his birthday here in Singapore. We hope to see him soon, and maybe who knows, be able to celebrate his birthday again here with us in South-east Asia next year too. Meanwhile, we wish him all the best in this new year of his, another fruitful year ahead! His birthday always kick start the beginning of the 2nd half of the year. What a day!

Catching Up With Some School Mates

If you haven't seen Ronnie Seah, Tay Meng Choo, Chee Miu Leng, Pang Kwong Tik, Woo Kim Liong, and Tan Jiok Saw, then here you can catch them all in one video having dinner, during Kim Liong's family transit via Singapore. Dinner at Liang Kee Restaurant @ Tiong Bahru, Singapore.

The outstanding discovery was that, our Tay Meng Choo has certainly grown younger and prettier than I last saw her. Hope for more such surprises from you guys in the near future!

Happy Birthday to Johnny Teh Beng Liang

Among our friends who never seem to put on weight, Johnny Teh Beng Liang must the champion. He looks as young as he was some 40 years ago. In this great day, let's hope he has got many happy returns, and maintain his youth while celebrating another year on planet earth. Enjoy your day to the fullest, Johnny!

Happy Birthday to Steven Chong

Happy Birthday To Steven Chong

Our Taichi and Kungfu master celebrates yet another healthy and peaceful year. With each passing year, this ever good looking gentleman seemed to be growing younger by the day. The secret had to be the Kungfu he is practising. 

I urge you guys who are still doubtful about Kungfu's benefits, to approach Steven and get a few tips from him. Or better still make his your Kungfu Teacher. It is certainly worth it, if you keep growing younger and younger after sparring with Steven. Enjoy!

Happy Birthday to Ken Wong

Another great year ahead for me! 

As long as you guys keep praying for me, I should be able to carrying on with this wonderful blog!

Meanwhile, thanks for all the wishes in the WhatsApp group, and all of you be healthy and wealthy as ever, if not more!

Happy Birthday to Victor Wong Kok Chee

Today is a great day for Victor, more to come!

As we know, Victor is the "Rambo" of the SDJ group,

his presence will drive away any evil from the group. And as always,

look like he is full of vibrant and energy still. 

Keep that up!

Happy Birthday to Yong Chin Fatt

Another year of maturity and experience for our old friend Yong Chin Fatt and his wife Lee Chin.

May you continue to prosper and grow healthier and fruitful with many grandchildren to come! Enjoy this great day!

It's Paul Wong 60th Anniversary on Planet Earth

Let's all wish him and his beloved family the best in the journey to his 80th birthday!

This photo tells a thousand words about Paul. He looked exactly like he was when in SDJ some 40+ years ago. And what a beautiful daughter he had. My God! 

Let's pray that he will always stay young and healthy and happy as he has always been.

Jiok Saw - Another Year Younger Today

Guys, hold up your glasses & cups, and give 3 cheers to Jiok Saw on this special day of his.

More Personal Contribution from Whang Nee's Photo Museum

These are photos taken by Whang nee, many taken during the English College era, sometimes called MSAB. If you don't know what is MSAB then, you are either not a Jaffarian, or your dementia is at a very advanced stage - possibility for all of us. BTW, drink more beer to rid of dementia.

Try looking for your younger self, you may find him.

This should have been the background for this website.

These are the basketball team of MSAB, most from SDJ.

Aspiring TV stars here. Most of them didn't make it to the big screen, though.

Rioting for a good cause.

Old memories came flowing back. Some lovely people here.

To be honest, I don't know why this photo existed. Got to ask Whang Nee

Remember Mrs Rajagopal? In the centre picture. Our lovely form teacher.

A contribution from Tan Wee Meng - next to him is Swee Leng of St Joseph's.

Next to Whang Nee is boyish Khoo Ban Tong.

Some meeting of old friends in the new year

A rare photo of Jafarian gathering from other Jurassic era. You know any of them? Frankie Lee and Chew Kong Huat are some names that came up when this photo was first posted on WhatsApp.

Tan Wee Meng found an old buddy roaming around Perth.

Simon Heng from St.  Joseph's.

Mr Chew Kong Huat 2nd from the right is the target of this photo, old jaffarian who is also our senior, of the SDJ-68 age. Many of us know him well.
