Richard Ee is 3 to 4 years older than CCP

Based on what the regulars told me, one hang himself in his room but told the mess boy earlier, to go to his room at a certain time. The other happened in the toilet and was very messy. Very sad cases. They said due to failed investment

I heard that CCP was probably due to losses on the stock market, but did not hear the details about Richard Ee.

The school field. May I now pay credit to some of the Rugby players who brought glory to the school in 1969/1972 : Ho Lin Meng, Wong Chai Kee, Tan Geok Ser, Tay Eng Kiat, Lim Kim Nguan, Cheong Wai Hin, and Peter Chan. I sort of remember one giant named Derek (?) and someone called Charlie.....

Derek Cheong. Peter Chan underwent a triple bypass I heard and has retired .

Anyone know a Wee Ban Chiang?

The same. But most have good words for CCP saying he was from humble beginning and a nice guy.

Then there were the ladies of the 60s and 70s....

RI re=admitted girls to its Pre-U classes in 1970, having banished them for a long long time previously......

I remember not being able to take my eyes away from Phobe Neo, a real teenage beauty of a Prefect.

Then there was the brainy Pamela Loke, surrounded by her gang comprising Yeoh Lay and the very cute Low Poh Heng

Then there was the attractive Susan Lim from the medical class, always with a handsome guy with the skin problem....

Lee Wei Ling was there too, with her tom boy hairdo and lady bodyguard in the background.........

Ashok Kumar died after the explosives he was handling exploded in his hands. Someone said some radio waves from some transmission interfered with the triggering mechanism..... poor guy

Fatty Loo was a Judoka black belter back in the 70s. I lost to him in the national school championship then.

He must be at least 5 or 6 years my senior because I do no know of him at RI, notwithstanding that he is financially wealthy and successful.

I know of him, and saw his hand, after the accident, but just cannot recall his name.
