Suggest we establish a Chapter for each country affiliated to the MEHSA if provision available in the constitution. This will help to arrange get together on country basis frequently, and also promote locating old friends.

It is indeed wonderful to go through the website and to know about almost many teachers and friends from MEHS, Rangoon. I left Burma in July 1962. Did B.Sc. from University of Calcutta. Established family business (3 industries) in former East Pakistan, now Bangladesh. Settled in Karachi after fall of Dacca, losing all my assets left over in East Pakistan. Established fresh family business (textiles, madeups, trading, etc.)

Married Farida in 1969. Have two children. Daughter Sumera now 21 who got married last year. The second child is son Abdul Latif who is in college and is 17 years old. Presently, I am settled in Islamabad, the capital of the Islamic Republic of Pakistan.

I am working for Tabani group of companies and as a Resident Director for Northern Pakistan. The group besides having industrial projects and trading worldwide also operates the largest private airline "AeroAsia" in the country.

I welcome all my friends from MEHS who remembers me to visit the beautiful country "Pakistan", and also keep in touch with me on my email address: gaziani@apollo.net.pk

I was among one of the first graduating classes. I don't think we had any school colours then and I cannot remember the House colours. I cannot recall the school motto but the school song began with the words "Truth and Honor place we foremost...". None of your suggested school locations seem to be correct. The school I was in was located at what was then called Signal Pagoda Road. Would love to hear from any alumni who may remember me.

Please! Anyone who remembers me - I'd love to hear from you. It has been so long. I was in Std 6A in the year 1962-63 and left in May 63.

How very very wonderful to discover this site and so many names I recognise. I might have known the Teohs and the Hengshoons would be prominent in this - you formed a large and memorable set of families in our school (and I was a class mate of Yvonne's).

Your "Class of 64" photo, where we are all dressed in the "cheik" longyis etc. contains my sister Aileen (3rd girl from LHS, back row) and me! (last girl on RHS, middle row, face partly obscured). We, the Tha Hla sisters, were probably not as well known as our dear, infamous father!

Hope to see some of you at the reunion (if you'll let me come) and my very best wishes to Mrs. Logie whom I've never forgotten. She is very wonderful - what an achievement - to bind together so many people and generations across the whole world.

Love to all - May Tha-Hla

Hello fellow MEHSers. This website has brought back cherished memories of a worry-free and very happy childhood. Thank you for making it possible to look up old friends.

I was in the 4th Standard when we left Burma in 1964. The eight of us in the Nag family all attended MEHS while we lived in Rangoon. Pradeep, Swapan, Rene, Tandra, Sahana, Chumkie, Kabita and Pradosh. I remember piling into our Ford Prefect, squabbling and fighting for a comfortable spot and who should be made to sit in a forward position and who should be allowed to lean back. And the food in the school cafetaria was outstanding - Mohinga, Khau Swe Thot, Oh Thamin with Chicken Si Byan...mmm...delicious!

I was in class with Doreen Chen, Betty Hutton, Ria DeMeyer, Zita Hengshoon, Kabari Bose, Benjamin Daniels, just to mention a few. Gillian Hutton, are you related to Betty Hutton? Among my teachers, Miss Reid, Miss Brown and of course Mrs. Logie who used to call me Chumkie-Bumkie. Her black and brown dashchund, Queenie, followed Mrs. Logie everywhere. Life was very good in those days.

While I was living in Los Angeles, I talked to Zita Hengshoon very briefly in 1985. She was, naturally, somewhat preoccupied with her wedding the next day. Mutual friends, Neil and Yvonne Devalarez, gave me her phone number which I've misplaced.

I'd love to hear from my schoolmates, so I hope someone out there will get in touch one of these days.

Imagine (as in John Lennon's song), just imagine! I got emails from Kenny, Jenny Lim (Pradeep's classmate), Sadie Bebahanny and Victor Matthews, all just 48 hours after I last sent in a comment for the MEHSA web-site. COO-OOL, as they say in N. America. I haven't quite picked up the language, myself (as yet), as I've been here for just 5 years. But it does describe how successful this site is!! I would like to hear from Zulekha Soorma too. Any relative of Ahmed Soorma? I am forwarding the missing identities of the Girls & Boys of Class of 64. (I must confess that I did refer to the Graduates of 1964 photo - just as a Help though, since I recognized most of them.)

I found out about this website from my nephew Nay who in turn got it from my brother Clement. I migrated to Australia end of 1984 and has been residing for the past 11 years in Alice Springs with my wife Angelina and 4 year old daughter Yadanar. Currently working as a district medical officer for Remote Health Northern Territory/Royal Flying Doctors, this enables me to fly to some of the most remote and beautiful parts of Australia. Two of my previous classmates Cherry Aye Maung and Khin Maung Ko (Balu) moved to Queensland and West Australia respectively from Alice Springs last year. This is great opportunity to catch up with some long lost friends. As we say in Australia "GOOD ON YOU MATE!"

Memories came flooding back as I browsed these pages. Names and faces that had meant (and always will mean) so much, smiled back at me as if we were transformed to that time in space, when we were all together - it was indeed, another world, altogether. Thanks so much, Sally Joseph, for sending this "Trip Down Memory Lane " to me. It is as intriguing (if not more than) what you had said it was!! Yes, Nargis Mookerdam, I remember you, your sisters Salma & Sarah, her sister-in-law, Maria Myat Than, and Rita Ohri, too. I would like to keep in touch with all of you. Lily Chen (who is dreadfully prompt about replying to my emails), Lillian Wu, and I have been keeping in touch with each other. I call them off & on and we chat for hours. Mra Htun forwards very interesting thoughts, and thanks to him, I got Cecil Wagstaff's email address.

When I called Sheila Patel, she was "Ngayauthee htaung nay de, lay", getting dinner ready for her family. Literally (& merrily) pounding away as we tried to recap and pack the last few decades into half an hour. I would like to know where Moira Hla Baw is now. Could someone please let me know where she is? Mrs. Logie, Miss Rosair, Mr Crane, Mrs. Evans, Mrs. Hein Tin, Mrs. Myat San, Mr. Iliffe, Miss. Tin, Miss. Sen, Mr. Henderson, Mrs. Brindley, Mrs. Chan, Miss. Gale, Mrs. McLean, Mrs. Watson, and all my teachers of MEHS, thank you for giving me all that I have today. My brother, Swapan always says that everything he knows and applies in his work today, is what he learnt in Burma. ie., MEHS, Rangoon and Kingston, Kalaw.

I would also like to thank all those of you from MEHS, who went to visit my brother Pradeep during his last few days with us. You brought him great comfort. And I would not have been able to express all this had it not been for this web-site. Please write to me at rene.chaudhuri@canwave.com

I should suggest that we check these comments regularly, because new people discover this website and we read about alumni that we have lost touch with. I have since met with Shirley Lal, and her cousin June (Rajh) Larden in San Jose. Lucy (Chen) Herbert drove up from Los Gatos to join us. June has since returned to Kent. Next week I shall pick up Shirley and drive up to Fremont to meet with Alice (Kazarany) Tabatabayee who has just returned from visiting her daughter in Rangoon and is on her way back to Houston. I also received some photos from Canberra of Pat (Thoung Sein) Kin Oung's family. Her youngest son graduates from University in December. I know this is small talk but it brings great joy to me especially now that I am retired. I am certainly looking forward to the reunion in July.

Due to a coincidence, Leo Tan managed contact me and informed me about the MEHS web site. I feel totally out of touch. I left Burma in the summer of 1966 quite suddenly and didn't have much opportunity to say goodbye to my friends other than a few. I finally lost touch with Si Si Saing and Katherine Ba Thike many years ago. My memory of my years at MEHS is rather patchy.

I have been living in South Wales since 1974 although the majority of my family are still in London. I have two children. My daughter is a doctor in Cornwall and my son a freelance musician. I'm planning to attend the re-union so hopefully I can catch up with some of you. But in the meantime I would love to hear from any of my old classmates.

Hello MEHS friends,

We've been living in Australia since 1988 after eight years in England. Really love to hear from you all ASAP.

I have been living in Michigan since 1962. Attended Alma College, Michigan with Hansen Yuan. Robert Fuller's brother taught Physics at ALMA. I have been working in Hospitals since 1965. Started as a medical technologist and after completing engineering school became a Biomedical Engineer. I got married in 1967. We have four children, the first three girls are all graduated from college and are married now. The youngest is a boy and he is still in college, will be 21 yrs this September. We have one granddaughter and expecting a grandson end of May. We intend to visit Ireland after the reunion because of my wife's roots. I went back and visited Burma only once (in 1980). My son was only 4 months old at the time. I see many of MEHS classmates everytime I go and visit my sister Sheila, in LA. I found John Thwe Moung after 40 years. I also foung Michael Chan on CNN one day. Still stay in touch with Hansen Yuan once a while. I will send the web site to them.

Dear old school friends

Please get in touch with me. It would be so wonderful to hear from you guys again, especially my classmates right from kindergarden to the last year at MEHS. Whoever and wherever you are so long as you belonged to MEHS do drop me a line.

This is simply amazing. I finished High school at MEHS in 1962. Graduated from R.I.T. at Gyogon. I am looking for Pamela Myomin daughter of U Myomin, Tin Win Maung, Aung Kyaw Nyein, Melvin Hein Tin.

I have to look up all my friends and class mates from the group photo.

Saya ne Sayama aalon ko gadaw ba thee.

Didn't even know we have our MEHS web site. It is sort of nostalgic and great to see names who are much senior than me but due to my cousin Khin Khin Win (known to me as Lay Lay Win) and my elder sister Sandra Sway-Tin, I always hear familiar names such as Ma Ma Janet Aung and Teacher Khin Khin Thein etc.. Please kindly keep me posted on the MEHS events because I've lost in touch with everyone since returning back to Burma after living in the States for seventeen years! Let me know if I can be of any help from Burma or Singapore side. Great site!

Many grateful thanks to the dedication of the Teoh family and those who took the effort to put this site together.

Seeing the photos of our old alums in the web site and their comments brought back warm and wonderful memories. I must say "Those were the days", when we were young, happy and carefree and I cherished the experiences as among those of the best.

To all my friends, I wish you all my very best and please write me should you come across my name and remember who I am.
