I have been asked by Whitney Stewart to be the managing editor/copy editor for a second edition of her book related to Burma. I am seeking good quality photos and other information that could be used in the book. If you are interested in this project, please get in touch with me for additional details, rfuller@neb.rr.com

Yes please. I really want her address. Yes she used to live in Ma Kyee Kyee St. His uncle's name is U Kyaw Thaung. Maybe you can look up in the directory. Please do me a favor. I would also like to have her contact phone number. I really appreciate your help.

I'm responding to Tee May Thein's inquiry on Teacher Daw Kyin Kyin. She's always at our Sayakadaw Pwe. Understand she is living at Daw Kyee Kyee Street, Sanchaung. I do not have the full style address, but if Tee wants it, I may be able to get it.

I would certainly like to get in touch with anyone who remembers me. This is a kind of nostalgia mingled with unforgettable childhood recollections of the kind of life which cannot be recaptured ever again and which will remain a dream forever.

Love to all.

I am still looking for Daw Kyin Kyin who used to teach the fifth standard, afternoon school. Does anybody know anything about her? Any news about her would be highly appreciated.

I wrote here one year ago after discovering your website a few days earlier. My first impression remains unchanged. Your website is really GREAT. Congratulations to the founder and the MEHSA committee and also to Kenny for his excellent work to administer, maintain and provide informations to all former students and their friends of this prestigious Methodist English High School. My sincere thanks to you again.

With the help of the informations available from the website, during the course of last year, I have re-contacted most of my former MEHS friends with whom I have lost sight for almost 40 years or more. They are Cecil L. W. Wagstaff, Richard Soe Aye (Kyee Soe), Edgar Wun (Oak Thar), Eddie Swe (Thein Swe), Eugene Sio (Thein Swe), Shirley Nyunt (Dr. Yi Yi Myint) by the kind courtesy of Dr. Lynn Aung Thet, Dr. Pamela Marshall (Pamela Soe Nyunt), a dear friend of mine now living in the US Capital, and last but not least, my dear old friend of my Yankin College days, Winnie Tun Tin with whom I communicate regularly by E-mails or phone. I have also renewed contacts with Jeannie Lim (Jeannie John) living now in Canada who wrote to me after reading my article "Burmese abroad with several names" in the "Reflections" page.

I have heard that you will be having a big school reunion (Third International MEHSA Reunion) next January in Bangkok. As I have been invited by a friend, I will certainly attend the reunion as a guest. I look forward to meeting all my former friends and hope to make new acquaintances. Anyone wishing to write to me, please do so. I will love to read from you.

Please! Anyone who remembers me - I'd love to hear from you. It has been so long I was in MEHS till 1964-65. It's really wonderful to know this site and so many names I recognised. You formed a large and memorable set of familes in our school and I was a classmate of Sheila Patail, Fareeda Patail and other friends who were with me in the same class. Well, I left Burma early 1969 after the marriage and settled down in Karachi, Pakistan. Travelled abroad to different countries with my husband Mr. A. H. Moosajee, who was posted in different countries from Pakistan International Airlines, as Station Manager. My e-mail address....saljees@hotmail.com

Wishing all my classmates and friends of MEHS Best Regards.

Hi Bob Fuller,

My mother Nina Bose was at Methodist Girl's High School and left during WW2 for India in 1942. I wonder if the lady you mentioned as having graduated from there in 1941 remembers either Manu Bose or her sister Nina Bose.

Cheers

Daw Khin Khin Myint, 1941 graduate!!! I was recently in the Twin Cities for an Aung San Suu Kyi event and there I met Daw Khin Khin Myint who was a 1941 graduate of the Methodist English Girls School... the last class to graduate before WWII. She had Mrs. Logie as a teacher! We had a great conversation. She and her husband, Prof. Jensen, had returned to Burma as Fulbright faculty members in 1961. Their stay there was cut short by the coup.Her present email address is jense003@umn.edu and she uses Khin Khin Jensen as her name in the USA. I'll send the MEHSA website a photo of us from that meeting.

Cheers!
Bob Fuller

I have just discovered the web site and have found it most interesting and also brought back a lot of memories. Our family sadly left Rangoon in 1960 and came to the U.K. There are two photographs of me without a name in the year 1968. The first one is in Mrs. Middleton MKG. 1st. row 1B. and the other is in Mrs. Franklin STD. IIA third row 3J. My name then was Sandra Wallace.

Yours Sincerely,
Sandra McLauchlan

How nice to see this site, and to see the name of an old dear friend, Edith Mariano. I see where Lyn Andersch got in touch with her back in 1999. I wonder if the contact still exists, and if I can get in contact with Edith as well.

I am now a full time artist after working for the BBC World Service (London) for more than 22 years. My latest works can be seen at the MOMENTUM III exhibition, Menier Gallery, Chocolate Factory, London SE1 (near Tate Modern) 9th July to 14th July. I will be very happy to contribute my art work images to the MEHSA 2008 calendar.

With all good wishes,

Please check out the reflection page where Mr. Thomas Manton has written about his parents (Dr. & Mrs. Manton) and there you will find that the school had to be rebuilt after the war. The Methodist English Church under the leadership of Dr. Manton rebuilt the school and most of the funds and fund rasing efforts were driven by the church. For accurate records you may contact the church in Rangoon c/o Bishop Zothan Mawia. If you need contact info, please email me. Hope this helps.

Sheldon & Wendy Battle have advised that there is a possibility that the school was existence in 1905. If it was, that would be awesome!... It would mean that it would be more than One Hundred Years old. Thanks Sheldon & Wendy and, Everybody, Anybody, please contribute information.

Thanks.

Please assist us. Edwin Tin Tut, Harry Taw & myself, are trying to find out the exact date the MEHS was first founded or established. A note dated 28JULY2001, from our website archives from a delightful 'young' lady, a Ms. Pat Lin Magdamo, states that she was in the school when War came to Burma out in December of 1941 etc., that Mr. Logie was a teacher then, and that it was 'All Girls' School at the time. It would have to have been prior to 1941. Would anyone know the date? If you do, please, please, please give us this information, either via the website, or direct to me at my E-Mail Address which is: cecil@wagstaff.id.au

Thank you.

Sincerely,
Cecil

My nee name was Pal. My family repartriated in the year 1963. I was then in Std IX and was only 13 yrs of age. My father was a well reknowned Eye Specialist Dr. P. K. Pal. I have a sister too, her name is Sandhya. We both studied in Methodist. We have such fond memories of our beautiful childhood at the school and I am trying my best to recollect all the names of my friends. I am absolutely elated to discover this Website and never thought that one day I will come face to face with my school all over again. Young as I was, I still remember the building and I feel tearful that life has gone past so swiftly and so many loved ones we have lost. If anyone remembers me and wants to get in touch with me, I would be too happy to stay in touch and can email me.

Love to all MEHS

Have just returned from a most enjoyable and a most productive meeting with Harry Taw & Edwin Tin Tut, in Bangkok, to progress a proposed MEHS Endowment Fund. Edwin please post full details on the Website to advise all MEHS Alumni for their information and to seek their involvement. Thanks.

Sincerely

Thank you MEHS committee for all your efforts and brain storming for the founding of MEHSA, especially Edwin Tut. Looking forward to our next reunion in Bangkok and perhaps Rangoon. I am still trying to get in touch with Ann Greenwell, Brenda Stutes, Carol McFarland, Sterling Kerr, Nancy Bosack, Jeannie Lucas. We used to sit on the banks of the Rangoon Yacht club and watch the Rangoon University hunks practice their rowing skills for the next match. Some of them even got their fathers to extend their tour of duty in Rangoon. I want to tell you I did graduate with honors from the University in the USA! and am also pleased to inform that after paying my dues of 27 years to the Probation Department I retired in 2004.

Dear alums:

I had great pleasure being in Hong Kong April 11-21, 2007. I saw my long lost friend and classmate Dr. Lina Ong and enjoyed her company - exchanging thoughts and events of our own lives. She is a well known and successful surgeon and she has been there since 1969. My pleasure was immense since I have been trying and so was Bob Fuller in trying to re-establish contacts that we first made in 1960 during our activities at the Science Club. Bob was our mentor - I, the first President and she, the Secrtary-Treasurer - during our great days at MEHS.

I remember there was an enquiry on location of a Burmese Restaurant in London. I found one! It is called Mandalay Burmese Restaurant and is at 444, Edgware Rd. Here is a website link http://www.mandalayway.com/ showing location. This place is run by Waji Ally and his family. He also owns a Hotel nearby.

I was so excited to come across our MEHS web site. I would like to hear from my friends - Aurelia Ling, Rita Chung, Wenlin Lau and all my other school mates.

I recently attended the 12th Asian-American Heritage Conference at Northeastern Illinois University in Chicago. The conference focused on Burma. Additional information about that conference is available from Dr. Hamid Akbari. I was very pleased to hear Daw Kyi May Kaung speak. She was a 1959 graduate of MEHS. Some of you may remember her. She wrote the descriptions of her VIIC and VIIIC classes for the Swaying Palm yearbooks of 1955-56 and 1956-57 respectively. She is now an artist, author and political commmentor in the DC area and has her own blog at kyimaykaung.blogspot.com

It is very exciting to read comments related with wanting to meet friends again or get in touch with friends and classmates again. One of the best line: "Anyone who is out there, would like to get in touch, please email me". At our age, as long as we are Alumni, friends and families of Alumni, we can be great friends too. Many great friends, not necessarily classmates are ready to treat each other wholeheartedly, warmly and become new friends; one will not be left out... we promise you... So, in nine months time... Please come to the 3rd. International MEHSA ReUnion in Bangkok, Thailand on 12 January 2008. Thank you for your time.

April 2007. I am so happy to say it was a great excitement when I called and talked to Joann Mclean (now Mrs. Stanton). We both graduated MEHS togather. OH what a joy to go down memory lane. I am so happy I have found a friend who I can share those happy "good old school days" with. Anyone who is out there - would like to get in touch please email me. Thank you.

I was a student of MEHS. There was a very small prayer in the hymn book. Thank you God for birds that sing, and the last line was Thank you God for everthing. I shall be very thankful and grateful, if you will send me this prayer. Thank you.

I just want to get in touch with my old MEHS friends and classmates.

Dear MEHS Alums,

How about us getting together a list of Burmese restaurants around the world, so as we travel around we can get some authentic Burmese food?

Some of us live many, many miles from the nearest Burmese restaurant and would like to be able get some authentic Burmese food for a change!

What about Chicago? As far as I can tell there is no Burmese restaurant in the Chicago area.

Cheers,

Bob Fuller
