One of the proudest, nostalgic and memorable event for my Royal Military College Intake 1978 was held yesterday. It is to place our Intake '78 commemorative plaque in our alumni corner in our Alma Mater the Royal Military Collage (RMC). It was also to revisit with deep nostalgia the place where we were taught, trained and grew up during the formative years of our life. It was a hard place and none can understand except those who has walked in the doors and experienced it first hand. It is a place where we were bonded by brotherhood of pain, as some would put it, mentally and physically but all to bring out the best in us and to mould resilience, initiative and responsibility in each and every one of us. If you don't cut it, the doors open to quit and leave. To make men out of boys and develop future leaders as our archways into the college bears testimony.
Prouder still is that my Intake '78 has produced some of the most outstanding individuals that served the nation directly as servicemen. No other intake or batch no only in RMC but I'm very certain in the whole country can claim to have 3 serving Chiefs in the Arm Forces coming from their years batch. From RMC Intake '78 we have the Chief of Defence Forces Malaysia OP Gen. Tan Sri Affendi Buang the No.1 man in the Malaysian Armed Forces, OP Gen. Tan Sri Zamrose the Chief of Army Malaysia and OP Gen. Tan Sri Ackbal Chief of Airforce Malaysia. We also have Vice Admiral OP Dato' Aris Adi Tan who is the Commander of the National Task Force. All four are current serving serviceman from my Intake'78. They've made the Intake outstandingly proud!
It's been 42 years since we entered RMC at the age of 16 yrs old but the bond is strong everytime we meet thus our slogan "Beyond Brotherhood". Once a Putera always a Putera be it an OP (Old Putera).
Brovo and Syabas OP Intake 1978, also a heartfelt thank you to the events organizing committee for undertaking an excellent job organizing. To my batchmate brothers ada rezeki dan umur panjang, inshaaAllah kita berjumpa lagi, Salam & take care!
