23 Jul 2009 – Plus Visitors

John CHENG has left back to HKG after catching up with cousin David WONG, meetings in Port Klang & KL-Malaysia and family gathering at Leslie & Ivy.

At present John LIM is here from Melbourne for a job interview. The last time we met was when I had just moved into my HDB in 1999 when he was doing his architectural internship here. Has been a pleasure showing SIN off to him, a charming young man whose parents also studied in Dublin during our student era! Good luck to him and hope that he will be able to figure what he wants out of his life.

Looking forward to the opening of Hunters & Collectors at the ACM tomorrow night where artefacts will be exhibited from the stories about hunters and collectors from the islands of Indonesia to the jungles of Borneo.

Somewhere, and I can’t find where, I read about an Eskimo hunter who asked the local missionary priest, ‘If I did not know about God and sin, would I go to hell?’ ‘No,’ said the priest, ‘not if you did not know’ – Annie Dillard
