  2. Dear Townians,
    i am about to go into a topic that most would find it awkward and uneasy to do so. Please bear with me k.
    Last Saturday our school had its biennial PTA AGM. I didn't attend coz went back to Kuantan for my obligations. One of the issues raised were the hot and stuffy classrooms of Block K ie. the one that David, Ricky, Siong Moh and Thomas entered in their recent visit on March 3rd. Due to the inclement weather[some blame Mr El Nino] for the erratic humidity of which our 6 classes of form 5 and 4 Pure Science are facing, the school is hoping to fix a heat insulator up in the rafters.

    Whilst every endeavour is made to address this matter immediately, Isabella and i had been toying with the proposal to make use of the gracious amount donated by caring pioneers. The parent-architect-pta exco member gave his advice after inspecting the condition in addition to a conservative estimate of fitting the insulator. The amount is around rm12k...
    We intend to write to the current crop of students' guardians to request for cash donation perhaps a meaningful amount of rm50 per child. Coupled with the earlier commitment, we hope to raise the quoted amount a.s.a.p.
    Though it sounds like i am begging in this blog but i am convinced that there are many Townians out there who would readily chip in for the sake of our kids, if not for the later generation. Fyi, there is no impending news about a new block to replace the other one hence, the discomfort of studying in the class under the sweltering heat for an average of 6 hours daily, is something we can all rally around to assist our kids yes... Believe me, i have taught in that block for the past 3 years and just being there for 80 minutes per lesson daily is fine with me coz i have an aircond sanctuary to run to upon finishing class. But our patient kids are still soldiering on in the microwave till 1310 hours...

  3. Hi Ms Poh Meng Eng...It is possible to publish an account number/ name the bank and whoever wishes to contribute towards the PTA fund can do so..to see you if they want an acknoledgement..or to contribute anonymously...you might be supprise at the contributions!! Anyone to second this motion?? Have a great day everyone!!!

  4. Hi, Main Committee, Anthony & Poh ME

    I'm in for your idea of the publishing of the school PTA account & name of the bank for the contribution to the heat insulator for Block "K" classroom in this blog.......probably that would help in the contribution......and for those who have not contribute during the BB17022010 can do so......!!!!!??????.....well!!!!just reduce the month's betting for 4D, TOTO or Cash Sweep would be good enough for the contribution.....OR any amount would do by passing your contribution to the main working committee of BB2010 to be handed to the PTA of the school......what say you guys of the blog administrators.....another COOKIE JAR!!!!.....OR any ideas besides mine

  5. Dear Townians,

    I am at wits end regarding the way to "cool down" Block K. I've been given all kinds of suggestions as to what can be done onlty to be shoot down by the next person as'"not effective". As such I appeal to any of you in this field to come in and have a look and advise us. Thanks.

  10. Slamat Sore, Anthony and David, and others too,
    Last week was a hectic week, minus Friday a public holiday for Sabah and Sarawak. Anthony in KL sure had to apply his own leave yes?
    Our school may go ahead to fix one classroom first, trial basis. In the meantime, we have thrown the idea of parents contributing for this one-off project to the students. Some can grasp the severity of the idea whilst some kiasu kids are hesitant; "why i must contribute? this year end i finish form 5 already mah.." [sigh... such kids... whose offspring?"
    Whichever way it goes, the heat will not disappear without real efforts, and sacrifice of RM/sen... Some may wonder why don't just fix aircond? Our edu dept has issued reminders for govt schools not to fix them coz the hefty electric bills eat into annual allocation. Moreover we have to be on an austerity drive in spending esp for govt sch.
    Will post the PTA account number after this. Need to chase after the custodian/teacher first... cheerio!

  12. Sorry I just came back from Sibu. Alamak! So quiet in this blog or just after the sunami kah.
    A sai mui can I just bank in my rm 100 to the PTA account or I pass it to you. Rm 100 is not much but at list it can buy a few block of bricks.

    ReplyDelete
  13. Hi Uncle Fatt Khiong...nice to see you are back....great gesture!!! cheerios!!! You play with bricks every other night..what is buying a few more bricks...ha ha I think it is the thought that counts...1 ringgit a day also add up to 365 ringgit a year...ha ha Bricks as in Mah Jong for you and real bricks for me in constructions...ha ha...we should do something with in our means... Definitely!!! Have a great weekend everyone!!

    ReplyDelete
  14. Dear Uncle Fatt Khiong,
    Tqvvvm for starting the ball rolling. Anthony is right, it is the thought that counts not the amount. Bricks in your mahjong, in A's construction, and in my gardening(don't know what else to use brick for except be a 'stool' for my flower pots); plenty of uses yes?
    Tomorrow the roof works will begin. Being a Sunday, there will be no kids around while by Monday the situation may warrant us to close down some rooms for safety purposes. Actually we have an understanding with the contractor ie. i-o-u basis coz the $ in hand is sufficient for 3 classrooms at the moment. So we tell the students the game is "1-2 zom,whichever class submits the fastest collection, will get the insulator earliest". An effective way to make those ngiau siau kids/parents to perk up and pay heed to their well-being.....

  15. Uncle Fatt Khiong,
    Forgot to reply you... Isabella and i can always meet you outside or perhaps you would like to come in to school, since you missed the bus to school last February hehe... Any time at your convenience, is fine with us.

  16. (LETTERHEAD of PIBG SMK BANDAR KUCHING NO.1)

    12th April 2010
    Dear Parents/Guardians,
    [Forms:5J/5I/5H/4J/4I/4H/3A/3B/3C]
    Your child/ward __________ in Form ___ is currently placed in Block K. Whilst the learning facilities and electrical fittings in the six classrooms are satisfactory, the physical condition ie. heat, is unavoidable. Our children have expressed their grouses about the unconducive classroom environment.
    In the Parents teachers Association/PIBG AGM on 27th March 2010, it was proposed and endorsed that the school should proceed with immediate action to:
    i) supply and lay Axis Insulation
    ii) supply and install twelve(12) units of 14" turbine ventilation.
    The total cost is RM12,000. We would appreciate a generous contribution from each family to enable us to carry out this project.
    Thank You for your kind understanding and caring.
    Sincerely,
    (CHONG NAM FAH)
    President, PTA SMK Bandar Kuching No.1
    >>>>>>>>>>> cut here <<<<<<<<<<<
    (reply statement)


    The above is a sample of the letter circulated to the parents of this school to contribute to the Block K project{and our fervent hope to draw Townians' attention to this short-term fund raising project. As Uncle Fatt Khiong put it, "got $ give , no $ can give strength"}

  17. Tony,
    By the way how is your son. We all pray for his speedy recovery. Oh talk about bricks, yes if every body try to donate few block of bricks, Iam sure we can help to rebuilt the burnt down classroom or even the great wall. So Ah kong, Ah mah, Unties and Uncles, the PTA need your bricks and support.

  25. Hi Guys and Ms Poh,

    Hey, I still do logon, but off late have been busy. This site is really Zzzzzzzzzzz. We have to start something to get all the Pioneers to log in again.

    Being overseas is slightly difficult for me to walk into a bank or drop in my contribution. However, I'm planning a trip back to Kuching, so I'll contribute then.

    I agree with David that we should publish the contributors. This would 'chia yu' for those potential contributors.

    I felt sad to see the school rather run down during the school visit. So, this is a good opportunity to give back to the school.

    David, are you passing the message to the gang during get-togethers?

    ReplyDelete
  26. Joo, Anthony, David, Fatt Khiong, Siong Moh, et.al.,
    As i type this i can't help shedding tears of gratitude and appreciation of your enthusiastic efforts to assist our school.
    I BELIEVE IN ANGELS... before this week, Unc Fatt Khiong began his commitment. Yesterday i got sms from Anthony after trip to bank; today David with some info. Not long after, Siong Moh walked in to my room for a chat, and hey, presto, i also received a new roll of nursery netting to replace the shabby and torn piece for our arboretum@plant nursery. This evening, Joo's clarion call makes it even more memorable and sweet; THE SCHOOL IS PROUD OF ITS SONS AND DAUGHTERS who have rallied around with financial, material and moral support... i am overwhelmed by your sincere magnanimity!!! Reckon i need to stop awhile and reflect, and give thanks to God[and also to wipe my tears]

  27. Hi PME...don't be so emo lah...ha ha KTGSS is our beloved school too!!!....everyone is already ZZZZZZZZZ ...now you make everyone ZZZZZ and teary too...ha ha The support will come as revealed in the recent BB2010...just keep your fingers crossed...no tears pls!! have a great Day!!! You look great smiling....Tsuyoshi San..ha ha my new Japanese name!!

  28. Haid!! Arigato gozaimas, Tsuyoshi-san,
    Sounds tastier if "Sushi-san"...
    Cannot help being emo... so overwhelmed by the many pioneers and friends chipping in for the school. Reckon that we should ask, or make known our wishes, let GOD do the rest... by sending angels, like u all, to make real the plans for our kids' welfare.
    Perhaps, as Joo suggested, we will post the names of contributors here. And for those who bank in, could do like what Anthony did, give me a sms or a tinkle, so that i can add to the list too.

    Tsuyoshi....look east policy??? what a laugh!!

    ReplyDelete
  34. Moshi moshi Tsuyoshi-san and pioneer friends,
    Seems like Anthony suddenly has gone ga-ga over anything that is Japanese...
    Today is a truly hot day. With clear blue sky and fluffy clouds, it is a sure sign that the hot weather is here to stay. I went to the Block K at noon, and my! the heat is felt on the cement floor of the walkway. Fortunately, the internal situation has improved. The students seemed looked quite fine, no sweaty faces nor stinky odour pervading their classroom like before without insulation and ventilator tops.
    They cheered when i made an announcemnt that u pioneers are moving matters; in fact faster than these kids' parents are doing. One or two had already went into my Facebook to link with Anthony. Another asked me if Unc Fatt Khiong has a fb, coz he said his mom's sis is married to Unc; Clement Liew is my 5th former. U guys wouldn't mind if i told them bits and peices of the BB reunion, pioneers' trip back to the past, your blog etc?
    O yes, Siong Moh brought in a roll of netting for the arboretum. The young plants that we propagated there will surely thrive and grow,plus the magic potion we use......

  35. PCK,
    i didn't forget u. Long time we didn't do spelling test hoh... Tqvvm for your contribution! David and Siong Moh are making a date with us in school some time soon. Isabella and i are in the process of getting the school bell plaque hung up at the original spot[remember your suggestion?]

    I got the fb but sorry I seldom go to fb cos not familiar. I still prefer our blog. Let them join us at our blog. oh yes Clement Liew's mum third sister is my wife. About the BB for me, I think is ok just tell them and show them our photos and how naughty the pioneer are. But dont follow our naughty ways. Tell them to put in more effort in their studies. ok bye

  37. Brother Tony,
    I think this few days I want to put in rm for the MILO TIN again cos last wednesday I didnt buy the 4D, TOTO and sweep cash. So the rm I save should go to the MILO TIn. I think my mahjong bricks will send for auction like your red wine. Every time play, every time kalah.

  43. Hi, Friends.......something for you guys to spell backward to release NOISNET

    The Moment you are in NOISNET
    You will lose your NOITNETTA
    Then you are in total NOISUFNOC
    And you will feel NOITATIRRI
    Then you will spoil personal NOITALER
    Ultimately, you won't get NOITAREPO-OC
    Then you will turn things into NOITACILPMOC
    Then your blood pressure may raise NOITUAC
    And you may have to take NOITACIDEM

    Instead, understand the NOITAUTIS
    And try to think about the NOITULOS
    Many problems will be solved by NOISSUCSID
    This will work out better in your NOISSEFORP
    Don't think it's my free NOITSEGGUS
    It's only for your NOITNEVERP
    If you understand my NOITNETNI
    You will never come again to NOISNET

  49. Moments ago Anthony sms-d to inform he made 2nd trip to Maybank, KL. Methinks that Anthony's and Unc FKhiong's wifeys must be elated that their hubbies are going to the bank more often rather than go pay homage to the toto-magnum-sweep. On the other hand, the chaps there may be cursing KTGSS for enticing away their regular patrons.haha...
    Anthony, very cannot sell Honda Cub lei... That is a nostalgic memento right? The vehicle that allows much privacy for u and wifey[no kids can tag along], ultra-handy to zip around and park easily when u need to pop in the sundry shop, or just a silent reminder of being at your service for years eh.
    David, walao, your spell backward advice comes in handy for my colleagues and me to share with our kids esp in English lesson. You won't mind if we ciplak it, and also to put it into the twice-yearly school bulletin?

  59. Nowadays hard to find anything made anywhere else other than 'Tiong Kok'!

    That is why the acronyms OPP, MPP and HPP for the low to high end products. Opp products for display only; if it last 2 years, you are lucky.

    Just out of curiosity, is there a surge in the hit for this site lately. I have emails all the pioneers that I can get my hand on.

    Uncle Fatt Kiong, Anthony, PCK, David and Siong Moh, thanks for taking the lead. God bless you.

  65. Unc Fatt Khiong,
    It is indeed a memorable gift of love to our school. May GOD shower you with many blessings on your birthday!! And our best wishes for keeping our sch close to your heart!
    Anthony,
    methinks that David will post pix here in the blog... i only know how to play fb so will post some pix there k.
    PCK,
    The multiplication 9 table is fine with me but the other hotel room, dunno lei. Reminds me of 2 sch inspectors in the 70s, i think, who had just reached the lowlands after a strenuous trip up in the interior of our state. Upon entering the first motel, they asked the receptionist "Ada bilik kah?" but unluckily for them, none. So they lugged their bags and files to the next lodging and on to the next coz then being a season of some celebration in that small town, the rooms were all occupied. Finally they entered the last one. Being exhausted and fatigued, they walked into the foyer and asked an old lady staff sweeping the floor. One of them barely managed to utter "Ada kah?"to her and she looked, giving a toothless grin, "Ada, tuan... murah empun, aku kediri auk"!!!!! {beyond this point, cannot print out anymore coz the blog admin may censure and censor me for good!] Hope this can make some laugh...

  69. Happy Birthday Uncle Fatt Kiong. We need generous people like you. Save on 4D to donate to a good cause.

    David, please post the photos after the tour. See what we can do to help. If everything goes to plan, I should be in Kiching for a few days at the end of Sept. Anthony, I'm counting on the good Kueh Chap.

    Miss Poh, love your jokes. Keep this blog very entertaining.

    PCK, you ought to be working as a Actaurist. By the way only a couple of dozen of them in Asia.

    Deepest condolence to Law Chai Hoon and her family.

    God bless all of you and have a great week.

  76. Hi All,
    Good to see the connection is kept alive although by a minority. What happen to the rest - the Chair, Mr Thomas Koh, not a word since BB! Still recovering or have moved on to another Chair & happily forgotten us ? Very pleased the 1st project for our old school is underway & funding is coming through. So sweet of Anthony & Fatt Kiong to forego their weekly itch ! Will do my part when I am next back & probably re-visit the old school.

    David, saw your note on the demise of Law Chai Hoon's late father. Plse convey my deepest sympathy to her if you do see her again. Let her know I have been trying to be in touch.

  84. I am from the class of 75' and have had my own children pass through KTGSS. Lots of money is being collected for various projects. This year my niece tells me that the PTA is collecting money to build an amphitheatre. This blows my mind. Why spend money on such extravagant structures when a shade to shield the students who get wet in the rain can be cheaper. BTW where is the principal? Is Ms Poh the one?
