ANOTHER FAREWELL GATHERING FOR THE PRINCIPAL

This was a separate gathering organized by the male teachers and staff of SMK Dato Jaafar for the Principal who was transferred to another school, SMK Tun Syed Nasir Ismail. The session was held at Johor Steamboat on 29th July 2019. Only 2 colleagues could not make it to the steamboat dinner that evening.

Even though we are now not in the same school, we hope the friendship will always blossom.

PANGKOR REVISITED - DAY 3

SATURDAY, 20TH MARCH - SO LONG, FAREWELL...

just before leaving the chalet

Had to wake up as early as 5:30 a.m. as we had to catch the early ferry. With eight people staying in one room with only one bathroom, the timing must be right.

waiting for the 7:45 a.m. ferry at the jetty

We arrived in Lumut Jetty for our 9:00 a.m. bus back to Johor Bahru. So we had enough time for another round of breakfast before a long journey home.

I would like to thank Mr. Majed, an ex-student, who is now working in Manjung, for being kind enough to buy us the bus tickets from Lumut. By doing that, we could be ensured of our seats earlier. It was really a short meeting with Mr. Majed over breakfast but do hope to seeing him again. And by 9:00, we bade our farewell to Lumut and Pangkor Island - with definitely warm and wonderful memories which would last a lifetime.

And just in case, you are wondering, how much you will need for a trip to Pangkor Island from Johor Bahru, here is the travel expenses for the 2D2N stay.

And as for the group members, thank you for the good time. Really hope we can go on for another trip some other time in the future.
