IIUM Reunion in KK (2 July 2011)


Prof Nasaruddin came down to see his kid here in Kota Kinabalu while he and his gang did their electives here. So we decided to hava little get together at a local halal seafood restaurant (No Pork Served!)

Yes, I'm the usual loyalist, always feeling attached to something I once belong too. It was nice to see my fellow graduates dining together here far from home (except for Jai), gathered again for a temporary reunion. There's a lot of us I realized and we are all scattered all across the country, east or west side. Aishah, Fateha and Saiful Ehsan were absent here, along with some of our IIUM medical officers in KK.

All of us have one thing in common: we carry the name of our university we came from, the university that trained us to become who we are today. I guess its true when they say we reflect how our uni had trained us. I am proud that I came from IIUM and I intend to continue to set a good reflection of our university, and hopefully do it justice for all the training and teaching I have received from our teachers. I hope others feel the same way too.

It was nice to catch-up with Prof whom we noticed have lost quite alot of weight (diet ka?). He told us that rarely will you ever see one table filled with Malay Muslim doctors during his time. He is happy that times has changed for the better and hopefully more improvement will come from this.

After lobsters and buttered prawns, we parted ways. Insyallah that might come another day when another reunion will occur, perhaps in the west, in the East Coast, and this time we have changed into different persons.
