The Biggest ESQ 165 Training in Malaysia-5 to 7 June 2009

This morning i decided to join the ESQ 165 Executive Training at the Putrajaya International Convention Centre, which is only 5 minutes away from my house.
It would have been unbecoming of me if i did not go.
More so that this will be the biggest training numbers in Malaysia.
I arrived at about 8.20 am and just as i was entering there was Pak Aminul coming down from the Escalator...which was a coincidence because i was hoping to see him this time and was thinking about it before going there.
Well gave him my trademark 'Salam Gajah' as opposed to 'Salam Semut'...
Did not want to detain him and wished him well...
Then i waited in line for registration for Alumni.
I can see a large crowd gathering and entering the hall...
As i was about to enter the hall, as another coincidence i bumped into Puan Marhaini...well was glad to see her and she enquired about my second Umrah...
As i entered the hall, i was ushered to the front by the ATS who thought that i was one of the VIP Guest!!!.. and i was just in time to give my 'Salam Gajah' to Pak Ary who was just finishing his salam to the long line on the front row...well he was telling Pak Yani Karangkraf that the salam gajah is here.Was pleasantly nice to see Pak Yani too...

The record participants of nearly 1000 is history in the making.
When i attended the first training in April 2006, we had just more than a 100..or maybe about 200.
And this is the 34th training in Malaysia and on record more than 34,264 members are Alumnis and the total Alumni is 684,803...
Alhamdullillah.

I stayed on till about 5 pm till tea break and i had to go off a bit earlier..
Will try and attend the 2nd and 3rd day session and the Preview.
I know that there will be more Alumnis coming on this two days..
I did not meet any First Alumni gang, sadly.
Most were surprised when i mentioned that i was in the First Alumni..
I wanted to volunteer as an ATS but was told that they had more than enough already.
Maybe next time....
