Welcome to this issue of our Newsletter.

However, I notice that we do not appear to have "new" things to report, or new articles. This i s where we look forward to members' contributions.

Therefore, please start writing an article or sharing your training experiences (whether in Malaysia or in Japan). A summary of what you believe are the highlights of your training experience, would help increase other members' knowledge.

A "back-to-nature" outing to Sg Chongkak Forest Reserve was successfully organized by the Social Sub-committee. I understand t h a t everyone had a good time in the cool clean river. We look forward to similar good response from our members for other activities (such as our tea-talks).

I wish all of you success in your undertakings, and great health to you and your family!
