I am married to my loving husband for more than 40 years now. I am a mother to 3 beautiful children, until years ago when I lost my youngest son. Since then my life is forever altered but yet unbroken....

Another journey, a new story...

"Life can be a comedy or a tragedy, it all depends on how you look at it..."

In June 1980, I set out on a journey and I didn't have a clue as to how my journey will end. But that's all right…

It was indeed 30 odd years ago that I came nerve-wrecked to Investment Department on the 12th floor of block C, the only tower block of BNM at that time. 23 years later, and after a series of promotions, I moved to Currency Department at Block D. Had I known then what a roller coaster ride I was in for when I joined BNM, I might have shivered in my shoes even more or turned right round and headed out. But I was blessed with ignorance then and continued until where I am today.

Like I said, I am a person of few words, but I do want to tell everyone how much I have appreciated the experience with some of the major achievements, not to forget the disasters and issues befallen on us over the years that make these two departments so special – not just the business side, but the pleasure of fun and laughter we have had – to say nothing of the pressure and the long nights laboring away at last minute management reports and memos– I think that’s what I am going to miss most!

I am leaving but I will be watching the progress from far with interest and I shall indeed look forward to hear the success of the introduction of the new series. I am certain those left will all go the mile to achieve far better results. My wish is for all to do the best as one in comradeship, have faith in teamwork and an abiding passion for details.

As for me, what I leave behind is not as important as what I will be embarking in life. Time is my companion, it reminds me to cherish each moment, because when it passes, it will never come again...

  4. No, it is not the end of the road. You have reached another fork like the famous 'Road not taken'. I reached there, oh so many, many years ago, and I took one less taken. I thank Him for putting me on this one path and I would not want to have taken another, even the more lucrative one seen then. Good luck.
