Rendezvous at Putrajaya
Friday morning 6th November 2009 saw me at the Public Services Department (JPA), Putrajaya. I was given a warm welcome, the crowd was receptive and gamely took part in the ‘role play’ session. Just before I went up on stage, the organisers (Biro Pembangunan Keluarga JPA) spiced up the program by showing two video clips — one from ‘Anakku Sazali’ and another from ‘Si Tanggang’. (Both were movies that portrayed what could happen when kids don’t turn out right.) What a great start! And to my surprise, at the end of it all, I was presented with a photo album … with my pictures taken throughout the session slotted in. As usual, my books were sold at discounted prices and feedback forms were distributed and collected. Special thanks to Datin Amy Lim (Head of Biro Pembangunan Keluarga JPA) and her husband, Dato’ Yeow Chin Keong (Director of Post Service Department, JPA) for making the event possible.
