______________________________ 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.
Teh Kew San? = 1 Punch Gunalan = 3 Billy Ng? = 4 Tan Aik Huang = 6 Ng Boon Bee = 8 Thats all I know - can't match them to top though.

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?
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.
Photo of the 1975/76 Thomas Cup team members 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.
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.
We have not seen Lim Cheng Hoe for a long time. Has anyone able to trace him. I would love to hear from him.
That was how we looked like in the 70s. Long hair was the fashionable then. A pointer from the Great Wong Peng Soon at one ofthe Thomas Cup Training sessions at the Stadium Negara.
Ya, you are absolutely right. Foot Lian is on the right in the top picture and swee Leong was standing at the left in the bottom picture.
Yeah Moe Chin Keat (CIKU) is one of the most dedicated coaches of all time.. He coached us for FREE and he fixed our guts and also provided shuttles.. He took good care of all his students.. I've played with most of the players in the picture as they all come back to play with CIKU once in a while... I wonder who will comeby for this Sundays game with CIKU as its his birthday tomorrow...
