The annual dinner organised by the Sports Club was held at the banquet Hall of Chorus Hotel, the same venue as last year. A committee member told me that this hotel was chosen because the price of the dinner was the cheapest compared to similar class hotels elsewhere
I counted about 15 tables in the hall. However, unlike last year some tables were not fully seated. For example there were only 7 guests at my table (including myself).
The food served was the typical 8-course Chinese dinner. However the traditional sharks fin soup was substituted by crab soup. Generally the quality and taste of the food was acceptable.
For entertainment some members went up to the stage to sing karaoke songs and played some games. Naturally prizes were awarded to the winners.
Beside the singing and games other events of the evening were the usual presentation of awards to long-serving employees, prizes to winners of sport activities, speeches by the company directors, word of thanks to the outgoing committee and introduction of the incoming committee and two lucky draw sessions.
I didn't win any prizes at the lucky draw sessions. However at the door on registration our attendances the organisers gave each guest a Jaya Jusco cash vouchers worth RM220.00. The cash vouchers would come in handy as my wife is eying a Cornell induction cooker at one of the Jusco stores.
The dinner which started at 7.30pm ended at 11.00pm. On the way home to Kajang I gave a lift to a co-worker who has just moved her family from Ampang to Semenyih.
