REUNITED WITH THE EX-MANAGER OF UPM 4TH RESIDENTIAL COLLEGE

  23RD JUNE 2025   ~ I had a lot of time to kill before catching my flight back to Johor Bahru later in the evening. The last minute try was to contact Mr. Mustafa Abu Talib Jailani, the ex-manager of Fourth Residential College of Universiti Pertanian Malaysia who is residing in Serdang. I was lucky he answered my call and still had my contact number stored. The last time we met was back in 2020 when he came to Johor Bahru with his family [READ HERE].

So a reunion session was set and Mr. Mustafa picked me up at Serdang MRT Station. Then, he took me for lunch at Azzahra Restaurant. We wanted to go Chinese and there was a stall in the restaurant operated by a Chinese Muslim, called Sofia Lum's Kitchen.

After that, I was taken on a campus tour around the residential college area [which will be updated later in the blog]. The last time I visited my alma mater was last year with a friend [READ HERE].

Finally, he took me to his house and met Kak Ros, his wife. I stayed for a short while, had a short tour of the house, looking at his cats and house plants. It was time to bid farewell to the lovely couple, I was indeed glad I tried to call Mr. Mustafa and the unplanned reunion was a success. Thanks to Mr. Mustafa Abu Talib Jailani for playing host. Hope to see you again in December.
