GLORIOUS  DAYS  AT  APEX  PENANG 2011/2012 --President Mike

The Apex Club of Penang is ever at the fore-front to do  service projects for society at large.

In support of Apex’s National Project of  Go-Green through collecting wastes and to re-cycle items like old newspapers, clothing, cans and computers, Apex Penang’s Recycling Project netted almost RM3,000, out of which RM1,000 was donated to ETF at the Mid-Term Meeting in Ipoh Kinta.

Hurray ! We had cleaned up the neighborhood and filled our coffer 

During the Apex Service Week on 28^th of March 2012, Penang  Apexians  treated the inmates of Penang Cheshire Home to a sumptuous dinner. The occasion became more meaningful with the presence of PNPs of Apex Malaysia, Apexians  K. Thavanesan and T. Ganesan who brought along PNP of NSW Australia, Life Member Paul Gallagher  and Apexian Scott Hart, Apex Club of Allbury, NSW. They were also accompanied by their families and friends.

We are a familiar face at charity food fairs. Our Apexians have earned a reputation of selling chendol to support worthy cause. On 15^th April 2012,  Apex Penang answered a clarion call  and all proceeds of chendol sales at the occasion went to Mount Miriam Hospital for its cancer patients.

Our high-class cendol sellers, toiling for a worthy cause.

With more than RM50,000 in Apex Penang Education Fund, we had begun to reach out to deserving under-graduates. Our first recipient of RM5,000 was Ms Mun Yee, a final year student.

Apexians from near and far loved to visit Penang for the excellent hospitality of Penang Apexians.  Most, if not all, are warmly treated to the tasty hawkers’ foods and nostalgic  tri-shaw rides. We are adept at international relations, particularly with the NIRD 2011/2012 being  a Penang Apexian. The most recent visit was by Apexian Kate Huth, IR Director of Apex Australia. We took the opportunity to take her to the Sungai Petani Club’s installation Night , held on 14^th July 2012.
