NGO Dinner

Last Tuesday we represented our Rukun Tetangga (Community Center) to participate in a dinner hosted to bring together all the NGOs (Non Governmental Organizations) based in and around the vicinity.
The venue was the spanking new Sinchoiwah Restaurant which is right behind the Kepong Tesco, a few minutes from my place. I've always seen this magnificent restaurant while driving by it but never had a chance to dine in it.
The main ballroom on the 2nd floor was big enough for 1000 people. The place was packed and we were led to a special vegetarian only table. The food was good accompanied by classical mandarin songs.
The guest of honour was the Malaysian Chinese Association president Datuk Seri Dr. Chua Soi Lek. The MCA is one of the key members of the leading coalition governing Malaysia. Politicians are always in a hurry so getting a clear shot with a camera phone was close to impossible.
