Greetings Stanley,

First and foremost, I wish you well and in the pink of good health.

I am Choong Sum, please call me Sam for short. Do not really know for sure if you can still remember me, I was with CMMSB from 1990 to 1994 Reporting to Mr Foo & Cheng Sue Yueh
Heard from Noraini that you have started a blog, and a an ex CMMSB virtual community.

So here I am, writing to seek answer on how to become A part of this community.

So hope to hear from you soon,
Many Thanks,

Best Regards to you.
Sam


And so, I replied Choong Sum.

Hi Choong Sum (Sam)

So good to hear from you.

Of course I remember you. You are the smart handsome one who married Gwendolyn Mak. I remembered once during a Canon function when both of you came wearing similar color outfits.

You wrote to me using the canonmalaysians.com address. You could have visited my blogsite already. Anyway the blog is sited at
www.canonmalaysians.com. Please visit me now and then, and hope you do not get bored too badly.

The blog will also link you to a my photobucket account where there are hundreds of photos of people you know. If you have older photos featuring you and the canon colleagues, plse send them to me for uploading. If your photos are analogs, I shall scan them. If they are digitised already, then you can use
www.drop.io my account. Or you can too send by attachments, or in a thumbdrive, a cdr, etc. I think about 30 photos would be a good number.

The blog also will link you to a registry where you can contact long lost previous colleagues. Your name is in there already now.

If you too maintain a facebook account, then Patricia Lee has a Canon group that you may want to join. Not much actions there yet though.

We can do lunch or have a drink one evening if you have the time. Gwen too. Incidentally, I shall be having a drink with Malani this friday. Care to join? We have not fixed the place yet.

Can I have a current picture of you soonest, if you are okay with it?


Cheers
stanley


Last Friday, we managed to catch up. You see, I was scheduled to meet up with Malani Cumarasamy on an issue. I invited Choong Sum to join us and he did. Choong Sum is now with Panasonic. Johnnie Tan is also there, in case you don't know. Do you remember Germaine, Johnnie's wife? The one with the loud sounding high heels shoes? klok, klok, klok, klok, klok.

Another photo?
