The Greatest Wealth is Health - Fifians Reconnect

It was amazing that a group of friends were able to sit around the same sofa after a lapse of thirteen years. With a deep sense of gratitude and thanksgiving, I truly appreciate the meaning of the saying, "The Greatest Wealth is Health".

True to the saying, friends that last for a life time are those made in schools and university. Ever since we got to know each other in 1973 in the Fifth Residential College of the University of Malaya, we have not cease to meet whenever opportunity arises. Our last gathering (Read here) was in August 2015, just over three years ago.

At our age, there is no career to pursue and no assignment deadline to meet. We gather to talk about anything under the sun and we look for food that pleases our taste buds. We understand that we have the time but do recognize that time is fast becoming a diminishing commodity.

At the Visitor Centre, UMS

At UMS Jetty


A very short evening to be awed by Tanjung Aru sunset. Unfortunately, it was not the best sunset that Tanjung Aru beach usually offers. It was past 6.00 pm by the time we arrived and the sun had disappeared below the horizon. The usual golden orange glow was dampened by dark cloud that hovered above the thin strip of golden horizon.

At the Signal Hill Observatory to have a
bird eye view of KK by night.
Overwhelmed by the big bowl and Q taste of the
fish noodle at  Tian Yuan, Taman Khidmat.
The visitors too have high mark for our pau at
Kedai Kopi Chakitiam, Damai Plaza Phase 4.
Savoring Tamparuli Mee at Wun Chiap Restaurant.
Durian at Tamparuli Tamu.

At the Tamparuli Tamu, the guests had a chance to mingle with the local folks and be fascinated by the local produce and unique delicacies.
Fish noodle at Kuo Man Restaurant.

We all agreed that we have had a good time and we had thoroughly enjoyed each other's company. Even as they left for KL, talk has started about the next visit to KK!
