I went to the gathering of Malaysian Association in Hong Kong at JW Marriot on Friday night. They hv this gathering every friday night and if you happen to be in Hong Kong, you can drop in for a drink. The food is free. The drink is on you (about 80 Hkd -buy 1 get 1 free).

I arrived at a little over 7pm but I did not went in until 7.35pm. When I was there, I was a little frozen. I don’t know what to expect from them. Another thing, I don’t hv anything biz card. Nothing. Just myself. Then…I said…what the heck…let do it.

I walked to their table and asked whether this is the malaysian gathering and Kenneth introduced himself. Then he brought me to Judith (the chairperson of association) and told her I am there for the first time. After the brief intro with Judith and Kenneth brought me around the table to introduce to everyone, I felt a sense of ease. It’s was not that bad after all. Malaysian are a friendly bunch of guys.

I always felt I am out of place among malaysian but that night I felt and sees myself as being malaysian and accepted among malaysian.

I want to forward my thanks for Kenneth, Judith, Andrew Yeoh, Chris and Jaggu Singh (another first timer) for hanging around and chat with me.
