THE REUNION THAT HAPPENED IN ALOR SETAR

   22ND APRIL 2025    ~ I was in Alor Setar Kedah as I was attending a symposium there [READ HERE]. Puan Sharon Taty Mokhtar, who is residing in Changlun, was in town because she had to attend a briefing. Puan Hanna Sheikh Mokhtar and her husband were on their way home from Hatyai, Thailand, but decided to see me to pass to the food items I asked her to buy. While Puan Fauziah Abdul Rahim, went home from work in UUM to Jitra, and asked her husband to drive her to the city right after. Then, the reunion of four friends of UPM TESL Class of 1993 [and someone's husband] happened in Simpol, Alor Setar, Kedah.

It was just a short gathering over coffee and pastries but to get four friends from different places at one time in Alor Setar was something unexpected.

Puan Sharon Taty, Puan Hanna and I initially met up at Albukhari Mosque earlier, but I did not the the time to explore the place. I now have a reason to get back to Alor Setar again.

Thanks to everyone for the short meeting. I am indeed blessed to have friends who are always excited to meet up for coffee, other and kinds of food wherever I go.
