The annual
Michaelian Dinner is held every September. I attended this years dinner. I couldn't make the Chapel mass. Heard that close to 100 attended the mass. That was great.
It was threatening to pour
when I arrived which it did. But that didn’t dampen the spirits of the Old Boys. Typical of a
tropical storm it came fast and furious but then it blew over and then it was cool. Thereafter it was a
nice evening . The camaraderie was lively and jolly with genre age music and
flowing beverage. The night was ripe for an evening of reminisceing.

Malaysians... celebrate Merdeka together at OMPH Church
OMPH Church celebrated
67 years of independence with a Merdeka mass. Its celebrant Fr Partick Massang
was led in by an altar boy carrying the Malaysian flag and parishoners dressed in cultural dresses. It was a simple ceremony setting the theme for the mass though
it had an underlying tone.
.flag bearing altar boy ...
... followed my parishoners in cultural dress
Malaysia though attaining independence 67 years ago has some years to go yet especially for being the 2nd most racial country in the world after South Africa and for marginalizing its citizens. It would be beneficial for all citizens to be granted equal status and enjoy the benefits of being Malaysian.
