Yesterday I received an email from Alfred KK Wong sharing that he had just met with another of our old classmates Dr Chong Chi Nai in Vientiane, Laos. The last time they met was 34 years ago, probably back in the Form 5Sc class at St Joe. CCN works for the Asian Development Bank (ADB) and has been based in Manila prior to his recent move to Vientiane.
Here's an excerpt from AW's note
"I was on a short break in town and managed to catch up with him at a nice restaurant fronting the Mekong River and overlooking Thailand on the other side of the mighty river. We caught up on the good old times and must really say that time has been good to him as he really looked well and fit. He even offered to give me a tour of the city by driving around personally even though he has only been posted to Vientiane for a month.
Thank you , Dr Chong and hope to catch up with you real soon.
Also thanks for your pledge for the school desks. I will pass your pledge to BC when I fly home next week.
Alfred Wong, Form 5 Science 76"
Many thanks to Alfred for sharing about this reunion. Best wishes to both gentlemen and their families.
