NZ Times

Many of our friends spent a number of years studying and working in New Zealand back in the 70s and 80s. Let's see how many you recognise in the photograph below (courtesy of LC).


If anyone has stories and memories from those youthful Kiwi days, do share them ... If any are in possession of photographs from NZ (or Australia or other country) you may have spent your early years in, do send them in to me (jslyong@hotmail.com) and I'll add them to the post.

  6. This pix is taken outside Malaysia House on Riccarton Road in Christchurch. CM, CS (COME CLOSER guy) and JN were down from Wellington for the annual Malaysian game among the Malaysian student in NZ. The year was 1979 in autumn and that's why CM still can afford to walk around in his slipper.
