Bey was our 1st TA Company Boys' Brigade, Staff Sergeant in the late 50s.ronald kuan siew poh
This handsome couple with the infectious smile that will capture your heart a mile away.Since discovering that we have our alma mater dinners in peninsula malaysia he and wife julie saw to it that they would be part of it, no matter what. Bless their hearts.
In his own words, "...a rare joy to meet up with old friends...we are closely bonded... Thank God for this wonderful opportunity."
If Ronald and Julie could come all the way from south of the border, it baffles me as to why many opt to stay away.
Only you can answer that.

victor wong
Our drummer in The Boys' Brigade 1st TA Company in 1950s, who joined our 'band of brothers' after a lapse of 48 years. It couldn't have happened at a better time for him to be now walking in our midst.
God is at work; of that I am sure. Hallelujah, God be praised.
Why? For He has sent Victor,now an Itinerary Preacherman to reach out to show us the way to be saved. Amen
tham leong
Tham Leong has 'come a long way' since leaving ACS Teluk Anson in 1962. After completing his tertiary education he served as an HM in Kampar. Not the type to sit and rest on his laurels he aspired for more challenging things and became The president of the Boys' Brigade Malaysia, reaching the pinnacle of his success. Something like what you and I could only dream of.
He was bestowed accolades and decorations by King and country in his career path.
Blessed with boundless energy and enthusiasm to do good, he is now completely immersed in community work for his school and society. (A time when most of us would just contend to sit and watch the world pass us by.)
He is truly blessed.
We are delighted that we have a person in him who is 'larger than life' to call our very own 'classmate of ACS Teluk Anson.'
teoh seng cheak
I have his old school photo but would not be doing him justice to post it here.He was with us for dinner at the Golden Sun In OUG on 13.12.2009 and together with me and Rudy Lim Ooi Chai 2 weeks later at the pasar seni, kl where we spent a day together.
He was wearing a 'frenchcap' no I don't mean that kind. Don't be naughty!
It was to hide his thinning crown and receding forehead, that's what the man said. I can't agree with him more, coz I don a cap too for the same reasons.*Haha*
lim seow yang
Lim Sooo Young...sorry just punning. But really and frankly he did look young, very much younger than his age, our ages hovering between 63 and 65! *sniff sniff*When I saw him, I saw 'Happy Store' flashing before my eyes. a place we all went for our newspapers/magazines and stationery in those days.
The store still around? Forgot to ask him. check it out.
ong chu seng
He was always full of fun, confidence and rattling away whether you are hearing him or not!There are so many fascinating things I can say about this dude. but I think it wise and discreet to leave many things unsaid otherwise he will cook my 'goose'. *Haha*.
But I remember one hilarious incident, when he annoyed Mr. Manuel, our Geography teacher who admonished him and told him 'to climb up Gunung Tahan and plant rice for the people of Malaysia.' Haha
But having said all that, one cannot help but find this dude a delightful friend, for being what he was and is, I hope. *smile*
Note:All things are said in good faith and sans malice.
He and a few others were the bright sparks, with outstanding abilities, in our time. The office he held and his long list of extra-curricular activities during 
Know something? He and I worked in the same dept. for over 30 years. I was amazed when he told me he worked with TV Malaysia." You kidding me, dude?"...was I amazed.
dr,tan khoon leng
He reached the height of his academic career as Dr. KL Tan, practising in Ipoh. Blessed with a beautiful wife and 2 sons, life today is all glory rubbing shoulders with the elite of high society. Way to go man! His was a case of all brawn and brain who played and worked just as hard.
A crooner too for that matter to add another feather to his cap!
A dude of pleasant disposition and puts everybody at ease with his charismatic presence.
He has this to say, " Let me enlighten you all.Ask me who and who and I will feel in the blanks of their whereabouts,I mean ex-classmates." quips the walking Almanac.
Know something? He was always spot on!
poon juay cheow
He holds the record of the youngest ever ACS pupil to walk down the aisle.Many elders frowned upon it at that time in history and laughed at his foolhardiness.
But today he has the last laugh and the envy of all and sundry. Why? Coz he is now a grandpa many times over. All in good time too he will be a great grand daddy-o. Take my word for it.
He is now a medicine man. No I don't mean the kind that jumps around a campfire and screams ooh eee ooh ah ah.
He a towkay of a medicine shop in Town. check it out.
Written in good faith and sans malice.
fam hong lim
She insisted that she could not remember me.Can't blame her though because there were so many of us boys as opposed to only a few girls in class.
