Yep,

On bottom picture, L to R,

Saw Swee Leong, ?Suffian ?, Dominic, Cheah and Kwek?

Soo Kee is in Medan Imbi walking distance from Sungei Wang and Times Square.

Famous for " Sang Ha Mein " and "Ngau Yok Hor",

near Ho Hup office, construction executives like to entertain there.

Punch Gunalan = 3

Tan Aik Huang = 6
Ng Boon Bee = 8

Person 2nd from left was then team adviser

the late Wong Peng Soon.

Dont know who it is on extreme left, maybe a vietCong from the then Vietnam war?

**Bbn** · 09-06-2006, 09:09 PM

Seriously speaking it could be promising player of that time Lim Cheng Hoe.

Haven't seen him for 30 years so forgotten abt him.

Moe Ching Keat or Cikgu is a "father " to all the Thomas cuppers,

this era has no records but Moe can tell you all about them in his memoirs.

This must be the Thomas Cup team that least remembered by fans. The first ever team that came together for the 75/76 Thomas Cup competition, played first time in the Thomas Cup series and went straight to the Final in Bangkok. For those who are in the 40s and 50s, they would be able to remember them. From left, James Selveraj, Moo Foot Lian, Quek Chew Peng, Cheah Hong Chong 9CHC75/76), Dominic Soong, Saw Swee Leong, Pua Ah Wah and the most dedicated Camp Commandant, Mr. Moe Chin Keat.

**CHC7576** · 08-28-2008, 11:01 AM

Hi Bbn, you got the bit on Moe Chin Keat dead right. He is the greatest and most dedicated official at that time and we all were most grateful to him till today.
