Nothing much can be extracted from the primary school years. Since the Special Malay Class is in English Medium, you need to repeat year 4 again , losing a year there. Time is lost to travelling to and fro from your house to school. Once the school had an afternoon session, but not for long. You see..some need to travel 1o miles per trip x 2 that will be 20 miles daily, and the school bus.....oh sometimes stranded on the way.
The other option is to travel via the normal bus, walking approximately one mile to reach the station. Quite often we slipped in thro the broken fence of MCKK to take a short cut and 'happily' chased by the gardener....!! if I could retaliate then..
After completing std 6, then off to CSKK in 1965 until 1969, the arch rival of MCKK as what they had been telling, yes true to a certain extent.
Secondary school is where you begin to develop your character and formulate your ambition. Needless to say everything were stuffed into your throat including "treasure Island', 'Robinson Cruisoe' among others that contributes nothing to your character building as a Muslim !!
Some guys got lucky with the - all girl's school (GEGS) of Bukit Residen, managed to strike a few chords with them. Of course the girls preferred the MCKK guys. Some resort to a very unorthodox method of mass circulation of adresses, writing on pieces of papers and letting the winds doing their job, hoping to be picked up by someone.
Then came the School Certificate syndicated with MCE examination in 1969. Most were separated after this exam for as long as 30 years, until being reunited again by the effort of some classmates organizing a few gatherings. Thanks for the effort .
A few had gone.....Al Fatihah..
