Well, after a short notice and a simple preparation, we finally managed to gather at Taman Tasik Ampang Hilir.
We had Wan Burhan Wan Ismail (who arrived first and brought Nasi Lemak and mineral water), Zambri Mohd Tenang (brought karipap), Othman Ismail, Megat Hisham Hassan and wife (brought homemade kuih lapis), Abdul Rauff Sarail, Moslim Jaafar and his big family (minus one), Mohd Fauzan Mohd Nor and his family (who came all the way from Malacca, and of course our special guest all the way from Sudan, Osman Mokhtar El-Mubarak and his family.
Khalid Zakaria called a day before that he cannot make it at the last minute and there was no news from Mohd Saupi for able to make it and so was Wan Ibrahim.
What was interesting to see the family members and interactions among the 2nd generations among us. Though it was the first time for some of them to meet they were able to continue the brotherly relationship like their parents did.
Thanks to all who made the effort to come and meet our brother Osman whom we had not met for over 20 years!
Will write more and upload additional photos later.
p.s. – I do not know who brought the other container of kuih lapis – sorry for not giving the rightful credit.
Salam. Regretfully, I really have to apologize for not be able to be there with all my old friends due to last minute family matters. I was quite frustrated of not be able to meet with all you guys but InsyaAllah, we’ll meet again in the future. Please do keep in touch. I’m available on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/msaupi or skype (mohdsaupipauzi).
