On the 6th July
2012, our student Wong Choon Wah was one of the recipients of this fund. The cheque was presented in conjunction with IP Wayne A. Madden’s visit to Malayisa for
the Official Inaugration of DG Governor Chan Hoi. He was awarded RM5,000.00 a year for 5 years
for his Civil Engineering Course in Petronas University, Perak. We are very
happy for Wong and we wish him all the best in his studies.
