MNRA Kuantan Region

Kuantan joins the ranks of MNRA Local Chapters
 by Chan Chiau Khiang

YES, on Sunday 13th April, I  took a little trip to my hometown KUANTAN where I was born and bred. There, I served Nestle as Branch Manager from 1981to 1985 at the time when our Prime Minister was then the Mentri Besar of Pahang.

It is only apt that I help inaugurate  a new chapter for MNRA. After a few months locating our Retirees from Kelantan, Trengganu and Kuantan we finally met on that Sunday. No doubt, it was a small group of only 8 people. Unfortunately, Kim Chew Meng and Wan Seman could not make it this time.

It was indeed nostalgic and meaningful  to catch up. We noted that  all are happy and doing fine --with Mamat bin Embong having already 7 grandchildren and Rosman bin Abdullah, a "towkay" now supplying goods to offshore ships. Well done. Others are happy homemakers with children going to universities. What more can we ask for.

The Retirees attendance were the following:
1.  Simon Toh ( Elected as Chairman)...............Kota Baru
2.  Halimah Bte Majid (Elected as Secretary)...Kuantan
3.  Mamat Bin Embong.....................................Kuantan
4.  Rosman B. Abdul Rahim.............................Kuantan
5.  Abd. Halim B. Mohammad..........................Kuantan
6.  Cher Ah Chat..............................................Kuantan
7.   Sum Kung Ping...........................................Mentakab
8.   Abdul Rahman bin Taib…………………….Kota Baru (joined later)



Very sadly too we spoke about a few who had left us namely 
1. Noor Musa.........................Sales Kuantan
2. Sulaiman bin Md. Yasin.....Sales Mentakab (driver- saleman and a good golfer)
3. Zambri bin. Yusoff...............FPO Kuantan
4. Kamarruddin Karim.............FPO Kuantan
5.Mat Nawi bin Yusoff............Van Driver Kota Baru
6. Adnan bin Md. Jali..............Sales Kota Baru
7. Mohd. Abdul Wahab bin Abdullah....FPO KB
In our prayers, we remember our dear brothers who had walked with us in promoting
Nestle and its products in the eastern corridor.


Welcome Kuantan and all our friends to MNRA.
