Cambridge University

In the 1960's, Cambridge University was synonymous to quality education in many of the Commonwealth countries. This is because secondary school assessment examinations were conducted in collaboration with Cambridge University Local Examination Syndicate.

It was a dream come true to be able to finally step into the premise of this prestigious university. With two post graduate students acting as our guide, we managed to enter some of the colleges which are normally not opened to outsiders - Kings College, Trinity College and Downing College.

Introduced by Rachel, this lady was originally from Tawau Sabah. She was keen to meet up with Sabahans after leaving home for over 30 years. She now resides in Cambridge. As its turned out, I discovered that she is a sister of one of the directors of the 2001 Computer (M) Sdn Bhd in KK. Sabah is not that big after all!
