MNRA Newsletter - 2016 Feb

16th  February 2016

Dear Members

On behalf of the MNRA Management Committee, we wish  our members Gong Xi Fa Cai and may the Year of the Monkey bring us all Good Health, Happiness and Peace throughout the year.

We ended the year very well with an active Q4/2015 and we are pleased to give you a summary:


1) A celebration of friendship at Restoran Simpang Tiga on 22nd November 2015 –

Members in Northern Region (Penang and Ipoh regions combined) came together, joined by friends from Central Region. 

Mohamad Noor bin Mohd Taib remained as Chairman
– Northern Region whilst Chang Fook Weng was
 elected as the new Secretary for 2016.

We thank Jerry Lee Ooi Beng, outgoing Secretary for his efforts in carrying out his duties.

It is wonderful to know that members make the effort to come for these get-togethers. It is also a good opportunity to recruit new members and inform them about MNRA activities.

2) Steamboat and BBQ at Pak John’s  @ E-Curve on 28th November 2015 - 

A combination of  steamboat and Korean–style BBQ at Pak John’s makes our meals a lot more fun as we cooked the ingredients ourselves, the way we wanted or how we liked it. Surprisingly, a few of us had no idea how to use the Korean BBQ.  Looking to our left and right,  we soon learnt quickly how to cook our meat.

Pictures below epitomizes happy retirees amidst friends and good food.

It was so nice to see everyone enjoying themselves and to catch up with each other.

3) Sabah, the Land Below the Wind launches MNRA on 20th December 2015 –

At last we have the final region joining MNRA. Sabah was not going to be left out. At the launch, the President Leong Ming Chee explained the history behind the formation and the activities organized so far, plus assistance which can be given to Retirees.

Jason Chong and Thien Kim Siong were unanimously elected as Chairman and Secretary respectively.
One of the pioneer executives for East Malaysia, Mr Yapp Chee Hen joined for the first time and so did Jimmy Wong. We had the pleasure of Mr Raymond Teo and Salleh Ibrahim who flew all the way from Sarawak to attend the inaugural launch. Our Secretary Lau Phaih Yean also attended.

4) Ushering in 2016 and pre CNY celebrations –

Held at Chef Ismail’s Restoran Rebung located at Taman Botanic Perdana where over 105 people attended the specially prepared buffet by Chef Ismail and his team.



Smile, you are on candid camera. The group was too big for 1 photo.

COUNTING OUR BLESSINGS , MNRA ENDS 2015 ON A HIGH NOTE - Central Region

Food glorious food at Pak John Steamboat....

The sound of happy noises filled a special section of Pak John Steamboat at E-curve on a Saturday 28th November. Better than expected attendance with last minute participants turning up after being coaxed by friends. A nice arrangement where we had steamboat and at the same time BBQ the meats. Careful not to pile our plates lest we pay penalty for leftovers, many enjoyed the variety of foods available while others stayed on to chat even after the lunch was over.



It’s not healthy if you put too much oil

“Nothing stops me from attending” , says Chong Soon Fatt

The ole gang – any resemblance?                                        

Wah, have to wait a while before I can eat.

Hey guys, you should have come for the fantastic food

COUNTING OUR BLESSINGS , MNRA ENDS 2015 ON A HIGH NOTE - Sabah Region

Land Below the Wind Waits for No One

Not wanting to be left behind, MNRA Sabah was launched  on 20th Dec 2015 with the presence of  Leong Ming Chee/Lau Phaih Yean and  from MNRA Sarawak Raymond Teo and Salleh Ibrahim to lend support. Newly elected Chairman Jason Chong and Secretary Thien Kim Siong gave their every effort to round up all the Retirees. The Nestle Spirit of Caring carries on as both of them even provided transport to those who can no longer drive. It is wonderful to see them still having the Nestle Family spirit.

Proud to have one of our pioneer executives for Sabah, Mr Yapp Chee Hen to join us. He fetched Raymond Teo from the airport and together with a few friends , we all visited Anna Shen at her very nice house with lots of flowers and plants.

A lovely view from Rasa Sayang Chalet at Kiansom

Jason and Thien brought Ming Chee and Phaih Yean to Kiansom and Kokol Hill to recce possible get together sites for future gathering. We found a nice “holiday place” with basic facilities up at Kiansom – Rasa Sayang Chalet , where we could stay overnight with our families and even have a BBQ or steamboat given the cool air up there especially in the evenings.

Come 2016, we shall look forward to an outing with Jason and Thien up in the hills . We also hope to organise a trip to Kinabatangan, Sandakan where we can participate in Project Rileaf planting trees along the river and estuary.

Zumba, cook and play at Stepping Forward Walk for Wellness 
By Leong Ming Chee

Close to 150 MNRA members and their families in their sports shoes did the zumba , dancing to the tune of New York , New York , songs from Mama Mia and many more . A cloudy sat morning on 8th Augsut 2015 was perfect for this event, joined by Mr Alois Hofbauer and Puan Zainun Abdul Rauf.

After the warming up exercise, we started the walk round the Taman Jaya lake  T followed by cooling down exercise and then breakfast served by MILO, NESTLE Breakfast Cereals and MAGGI sampling vans. Before too long, we had MAGGI Nasi Goreng contest where all participants tried their skills as  Masterchefs and telematches requiring accurate aiming, balancing, speed skills in order to secure some prizes.

It was a fun morning where all enjoyed themselves through participation, watching others and meeting old friends after a long time.

Our thanks specially to Nestlé Management and all the Businesses who contributed generously with their product samples for our goody bags.

MNRA Newsletter - 2015 Oct

23rd October 2015

Dear Members,

Aren’t we glad that we held our big event Stepping Forward Walk For Wellness in August and not now. The haze is getting to all of us and is most unhealthy. And now the outbreak of Typhoid in KL. I hope that we are all taking care of ourselves and our families – wear masks when going out, drink lots of water and keep ourselves clean, avoid eating in dirty public places, boil your water and home-cooked meals are always the best.

We are delighted to report to you a couple of activities held in the last 2 months.

1. Stepping Forward Walk for Wellness 8th August 2015

After a year’s absence, MNRA came back in full force at Taman Jaya. Close to 150 MNRA members and their families in their sports shoes did the zumba, dancing to the tune of New York , New York, songs from Mama Mia and many more . A cloudy saturday morning on 8th August 2015 was perfect for this event, joined by Mr Alois Hofbauer and Puan Zainun Abdul Rauf.

After the warming up exercise, we started the walk round the Taman Jaya lake, followed by cooling down exercise and then breakfast served by MILO, NESTLÉ Breakfast Cereals and MAGGI sampling vans. Before too long, we had MAGGI Nasi Goreng contest where all participants tried their skills as Masterchefs and Telematches requiring accurate aiming, balancing, speed skills in order to secure some prizes.



The young joins the seniors for exercise                        

 It was a fun morning where all enjoyed  themselves through participation, watching others and meeting old friends after a long  time.





Hello from all of us. Next time, you come too.

Make sure we pour all the water into the bottle

Balance , balance…….

Our thanks to Nestlé Management and all the Businesses who contributed generously with their product samples for our goody bags.

2. MNRA KUCHING held a get – together in MIRI on 25th September 2015

To ensure we get to see all the members, Raymond Teo- Chairman of MNRA Kuching gathered his team to organize a trip to Miri to visit two of our long time retirees – Mr Foo Shin Shui and Ms Brigette Law who were unable to travel to Kuching for the last 2 occasions. To make this a reunion of friends, they also invited our partners and friends from Jasra Harrisons and Harrisions  who travelled from as far as BSB, Brunei and Bintulu…what a  wonderful get-together in a homely and relaxed environment offered by Salleh Ibrahim.

Salleh with his gracious wife cooked up a delicious meal which filled our stomachs, complete with desserts, cookies, fruits and of course NESCAFÉ.

As friends of Mr Foo and Brigette could not visit them in Miri, a special card with wishes and memorable photos plus a homemade  soap (courtesy of Lau Phaih Yean) were presented to them.

The function attended by Ming Chee and Ho Choy was made even more special when we made market visits with Shirley Teo –field sales executive in Miri, visiting Malaysia’s first oil pump up the hill and we were able to sample many different kinds of Sarawakian /Miri foods. Despite the haze worsening that day, all of us managed to arrive home safely in Kuching and KL . Terima Kasih to the MNRA Kuching team and friends who made this possible.

A real pleasure to meet all our friends – Nestle and Harrisions/Jasra Harrisons

Specially handmade soap and a greeting card from friends in KL for Mr Foo and Brigette

3. Dialogue with Nestlé Management

The dialogue continues with Nestlé Management. We are following up with them on a booklet for the Retirement Scheme and what are the benefits for the beneficiaries. As this is going to be a full and complete exercise which spells out details, it will take some time. MNRA Committee has offered to help look at the final draft and provide inputs.

4. Annual Nestlé Hi Teas, Dinners, Family Days organized by Head Office and the Regions

These functions are organized by Nestlé Head Office – Group Corporate Affairs. Many Retirees are confused that these are organized by MNRA. They are not!  If you have been left out in these functions or wish to change your location of joining , example change from HOU to Shah Alam factory,  you need to contact GHRD HOU Attention  Encik Meor Zulkarnain Abdul Tarmizi (email: meorzulkarnain.ahmadtarmizi@my.nestle.com  TEL 03 79656046) or Jamaliah Sharuddin Shafie. (email: jamaliah.sharuddinshafie@my.nestle.com  TEL 03 79656237).

5. Our Best Moments in Nestlé

We wish to call out to all Retirees to submit memorable stories and pictures so we can post on our blog http://mynestleretiree.blogspot.com. Mr Lim Hock Cheng from Penang was given a special award for submitting memorable pictures which are now posted in our blog.

6. Wellness Visits

We visit members who are not well with a small gesture of fruit basket, home made cake, get well card, etc. Recently, we visited Messrs Yeo Eng Seng and Wong Chi Peng. But both are okay now

BERITA BULAN OKTOBER 2015

Kita amat bertuah dapat menjayakan acara Stepping Forward Walk For Wellness pada Ogos dan bukan sekarang, memandangkan jerebu yang mampu menjejaskan kesihatan kita.  Tambahan pula dengan wabak deman kepialu di Kuala Lumpur.  Saya harap kita semua ambil langkah menjaga kesihatan kita dan juga kesihatan keluarga tersayang.  Pakai topeng (atau mask) jika keluar rumah dan minum banyak air masak, jaga kebersihan diri,  kurangkan makan di kedai-kedai dan terbaik ialah makan masakan sendiri di rumah.
Kami laporkan aktiviti-aktiviti yang dijalankan 2 bulan yang sudah.

1. Stepping Forward Walk For Wellness  8 Ogos 2015

Setelah setahun mendiamkan diri, MNRA/PPNM kembali dengan penuh semangat di Taman Jaya, Petaling Jaya di mana seramai 150 ahli dan keluarga mengambil bahagian dengan memanaskan badan dengan senaman mengikut rentak zumba bertemakan lagu New York, New York, Mama Mia dan lain-lain. Encik Alois Hofbauer dan Puan Zainun Abdul Rauf  memeriahkan lagi acara dengan dikurniakan cuaca yang baik.

Selepas  senaman memanaskan badan, kami mula berjalan mengelilingi tasik Taman Jaya, diikuti oleh sarapan sihat - MILO, NESTLE Breakfast Cereals dan MAGGI.  Pertandingan MAGGI Nasi Goreng diadakan dimana para peserta mempamerkan bakat terpendam Masterchef mereka.  Sukaneka yang mencabar diadakan untuk dimenangi hadiah-hadiah menarik.

Pagi yang sungguh menyeronokkan dan membolehkan ahli dan keluarga yang mengambil bahagian, menjadi penonton dan juga bersiratulrahim dengan rakan-rakan.

Kami ucapkan ribuan terima kasih kepada pengurusan dan penaja-penaja yang bermurah-hati menaja program ini melalui pensampelan dan saguhati kepada kesemua peserta.

2. PERJUMPAAN MNRA/PPNM KUCHING pada 25hb Sep 2015

Bagi memastikan kesemua ahli dari Sarawak dapat hadir, Raymond Teo selaku Pengerusi MNRA/PPNM Kuching uruskan perjumpaan di Miri untuk membolehkan pesara Encik Foo Shin Shui dan Cik Brigette Law hadir bersama. Kedua mereka tidak dapat hadir dalam 2 perjumpaan yang diadakan di Kuching sebelum ini. 
Untuk memeriahkan lagi majlis ini, mereka juga jemput rakan niaga dan sahabat-sahabat dari Jasra Harrisons dan Harrisions yang sanggup datang dari BSB, Brunei dan Bintulu.  Perjumpaan yang sungguh meriah dan santai diusahakan oleh Salleh Ibrahim dan Soraya, isteri tersayangnya di kediaman mereka.  Soraya menghidangkan masakan enak,siap dengan pencuci mulut, buah-buahan dan kuih muih.  Majlis diakhiri dengan minuman NESCAFE.

Sebagai tatapan pada kenalan dari Kuala Lumpur  yang tidak dapat hadir pada perjumpaan ini, sekeping kad ucapan disertai dengan gambar kenangan telah dihasilkan dan Lau Phaih Yean juga menghadiahkan sabun mandi buatan sendiri untuk En Foo dan Cik Brigette.

Majlis yang dihadiri oleh Leong Ming Chee dan Lim Ho Choy ke Miri menjadi lebih bermakna dengan lawatan kerja bersama Shirley Teo (Field Sales Executive Miri) ke pam minyak pertama di Malaysia yang terletak di atas bukit.  Kedua mereka juga berkesempatan merasa berbagai makanan Sarawak dan Miri.  Ribuan terima kasih kepada MNRA/PPNM Kuching dan rakan-rakan yang telah menjayakan program ini.

3. Dialog Bersama Pengurusan Nestle

Dialog bersama Pengurusan Nestle berterusan.  Kami sedang berusaha untuk menghasilkan sebuah buku kecil Skim Pesaraan dan manfaat untuk waris.  Memandangkan bukukecil  ini akan merangkumi kesuluruhan initi pati melibatkan pesara, ia akan mengambil masa yang panjang untuk disiapkan dan  AJK MNRA/PPNM akan membantu dalam hal ini.

4. Minum Petang Tahunan Nestle, Makan Malam Dan Hari Keluarga (Annual Nestle Hi Teas, Dinners, Family Days)  Kelolaan Ibu Pejabat (HOU)  dan Cawangan (Regions)

Kesemua majlis  diatas dikelolakan sepenuhnya oleh Hal Ehwal Korporat Kumpulan (Group Corporate Affairs) Nestle Head Office.  Ramai pesara yang keliru dan menjangkakan ini semua adalah kelolaan MNRA/PPNM.  Sekiranya anda tidak dapat jemputan menghadiri majlis-majlis ini atau ingin menukar tempat majlis, seperti tukar dari HOU ke Kilang Shah Alam, anda perlu hubungi GHRD HOU, Untuk Perhatian Encik Meor Zulkarnain Abdul Tarmizi  (email : meorzulkarnain.ahmad@my.nestle.com atau telefon 03-79656046) atau Puan Jamaliah Sharuddin Shafie (email : jamaliah.sharuddinshafie@my.nestle.com atau telefon 03-79656237).
