9 June 2010 – Cash Flow
Many thanks Sunny!
Dropped by Brickfields Asia College…
After a hot blistering afternoon whilst on a journalistic fieldwork at Kampung Baru and at the American Embassy (…you know, the protest against Israel for attacking a Gaza-bound vessel in international waters carrying humanitarian supplies early on Monday morning. Israeli armed soldiers killed nine civilians on the boat.), Sunny Lim and Paul Wong dropped by at the college before getting back to their car parked at YMCA.
The student counsellor will be emailing to Paul, the teacher’s appraisal of Gnanam sometime next week. Will post then.
Lita does it again…with kind generosity.
Lita happened to visit Gnanam’s blog last night and chipped in another RM100. (On behalf of Gnanam, I would like to thank her again for her kind support.)
Sunny Lim and Paul Wong met up with Gnanam tonight.
Gnanam was in need of “office working” clothes (he texted Paul during the day. So later in the evening around 9.00pm we brought quite a bundle of clothes to his place. Gnanam is in the midst of trying to get a job; hope he will succeed.
“It has been a daily hectic schedule for me but I am impressed with the continued positive attitude of Gnanam to strive for the better, as he matures over time. So with my buddy Sunny it was worth the trip from our own distant homes.” — Paul
Meeting Gnanam on 20/04/2010
Today is 20/4/2010. I am disbursing earlier than expected the allowances for May 2010 to Gnanam. Presently he is not working as his last employer at the furniture retail outlet at Brem Mall, Kepong opted for full-time staffing instead. Prior to this he was working on weekends to earn a keep.
However Gnanam is hopeful to find some part-time job soon which can fit his study periods :
Tuesdays & Thursdays – 6.30pm to 9.30pm
His college lecturers were able to slot in additional study periods for Gnanam to catch up on his studies :
Wednesdays & Fridays – 10.00am to 2.00pm
If any one would like to offer part-time work to Gnanam, please contact Paul at 012-3799248 or email to lucifer_butler@yahoo.com
……………
Gnanam informed that YB Lim has written to the welfare office recently; I will get hold of a copy for record purpose soon.
……………
Gnanam also informed that his late father’s motorcycle has been located at the LDP police station. He hopes to get it back and repair it.I told Gnanam to ask YB Lim’s office to assist in this matter. If anyone can assist in this matter, please email to lucifer_butler@yahoo.com
…………..
An EPSON color printer was puchased by Paul Wong costing RM160.00 and handed to Gnanam today. At least he can optimise the use of his computer for his studies.
The ideal donation drive as highlighted below has yet to be achievable as of May 2010 as the respond has been low. Dear readers, if any of you could chip in from time to time, any amount collectively goes a long way to easing the financial burdens of Gnanam. I can be contacted at lucifer_butler@yahoo.com.
help on the way…
At 8.45pm, Wednesday, 7th April 2010, Sunny Lim a.k.a. dawningeyes and Paul Wong a.k.a. lucifer-butler took Gnanam and his mother to YB Lim’s office. Both YBs Lim and Murugeshu interviewed the two for almost half-an-hour and will be submitting recommendations to the welfare office and Ministry of Women, Family and Community Development (Datuk Shahrizat’s office) for some welfare aid.
Gnanam is currently concentrating on his studies and has stopped his job.
