Selamat Jalan Romeo

Maziah's gone, Kaas's gone, Aiman's gone and this time we bid another farewell to our dearest friend, Zaifu. Zaifu joined SD in 2002 from Ericsson. I can still remember when he came for the interview with a drip syringe still stuck on his hand. He was actually warded in a hospital at that time when our HR called him and he requested a special clearance from the doctor to attend the interview. Unfortunately, he 'failed' the interview simply because I felt that he was over qualified compared to the job that had been offered. I later referred him to another suitable department according to his experience and qualification. Two years later, he was eventually transferred back to my department and had the chance to work together. Other than work, Zaifu has been with me in many other 'extra-curricular' activities, eg taking part in the 10km runs, weekly jogging sessions, TTS, mengulau and also karaoke session with me and my wife. Coming from the same home-state, he calls 'Yeop' which make me feels like an elder brother to him.

He is still single and hunting for his real love. Zaifu has always been a good friend to most of us in SD. This is proved by the number of farewell functions that have been organised for him... the first one was the official one from the company last Friday, yesterday we had a pre-farewell lunch at 'Big Plate @ Baywakwatch' and lastly at Cozy Restaurant Alamanda Putrajaya this evening.

Afu, thanks for everything. I also owe you many many things which I cannot mention them one by one here...."Biarlah Rahsia..."

We wish u the very best of luck in your future carreer with your former employer, Ericsson. We surely gonna miss u. Keep in touching and don't kill the animal bcoz the animal can kill u too, OK?

Tinggal kenangan - my 3 running buddies... all gone!
