Visit and visitor 探访及访客

From left: Mr and Mrs Lok, Karen


Our KL friend Karen and two of us, went to Port Dickson to visit her eldest sister and brother-in-law Mr. Lok. 

Mr. Lok (85), retired secondary school headmaster, is a internationally well known Malaysian Chinese calligrapher/painter.

We were honoured to be welcomed into their home by the couple.

Mr. Lok patiently explained the content of his latest book, a collection of his calligraphy and paintings. I learned a lot from this session.

Later we were treated to a lunch at a nearby restaurant which served delicious food.

We left after tea at about 3:00 pm.

Upon reaching home, I was surprised to receive a call from a Singaporean friend whom I had not met for the past 40 years.

Chow was here in KL for the weekend to attend a relative's wedding function.

I brought him to my house, and later to a Satey dinner, spending some time reminiscing our days together in Singapore more than 40 years ago.

今天早上,我们陪同吉隆坡朋友Karen, 到波德申探访她的大姐、大姐夫。

大姐夫陆磊先生(85岁)是一位退休校长,也是一位闻名国内外的书法家、画家。(观看光明日报新闻

我和太太非常荣幸的能够到他的『听涛局』一坐,也受到他们热烈的欢迎。

陆校长很有耐心的向往这名门外汉讲解他最新出版的一本作品集,我也学习到很多。

过后,陆校长及太太请我们到附近的一家餐馆吃午餐。

我们在大约三点钟,午茶过后就向他们告别。

回到家后,很惊喜的接到一位四十年没见过面的新加坡姓周的朋友来电,告诉我他正到了吉隆坡。

我去把他接载到我家一叙。四十年可真是一个很长的日子,但能够再见面,真是天主的恩赐,佛家人说有缘!

时近傍晚,我就带他去品尝著名的“到加影必吃”沙爹。

四十年,这真有说不完的故事。。晚上八时左右,我们就告别,把他送回到蕉赖亲戚朋友的家。

后会有期!
