My two sons; Zaid and Anwar, my daughter Hanaan, my two nephews; Safwan and Sufian joined my wife, my sister (the School Senior Assistant), her husband and me to Setapak High School this morning to play a few games of Badminton. We played in the famous Setapak High School gymnasium (one of the few non-boarding public schools in Malaysia that has a gymnasium). Setapak High School's had a very colourful and long history (you can wiki it here Setapak High School), however the condition of the gymnasium when all of us came in this morning was deplorable. It was nothing like I could remember when I was there 26 years ago. So before we could play, we had to sweep the floor for 30 minutes, but since the dust had settled on the parque flooring for so long, there was not much we could do. Seems to me the gym had not been used for years. Watch this video yourselves.
After plenty of sweeping the floor, we skipped the warm up as we had already warmed up :-) and played for about 3 hours. We will back next week God willing, same day, same time.All of us then had our lunch at Restoran Haslam at Jalan Pahang.
p.s. calling Setapak High School Form 5 Sc 1-1981 (see photo below). Email me if you are reading this posting. We can plan a reunion and find ways to help our former school.
guess which one is me, the right guess wins you a voucher...

We hostelites,used to play basketball in the gym at 2am until the HM, Mr Hermann de Souza told the jaga to stop us playing at this odd hour - that was in 1965.
It was the 1st week of the 3rd term holiday and food was still available and some of us chose to stay back. One 'bright spark' suggested the basketball game.
I left at end of 1966 after LCE to join Royal Military College, Sungei Besi,
My form teacher (3A) was Mr Chin Peng Weng. The Senior Asst was: Mr Cheah Hai San.
Those were the days!
