We drove up the winding roads to the top of the mountain range and join the other guests for the special lunch at the great entertainment Hall....At half pass noon the lunch start with the usual performances of the traditional Chinese lion dances and other traditional performances...The Host, the grand old man himself arrived with the pomp and splendor and so are other VIP's....It was a large buffet lunch with varieties of Malaysian food spreads...As usual at a function like this one get the opportunity to meet some old acquaintances and makes new friends...I did met an old classmate that I had not met since we left school in nineteen fifty seven....What a great surprise... He left to join army and then left the army and now he is one of those top executives with the Genting Group that managed this resorts on the top of the world...Then I met my cousin who happen to be another CEO of a company that is also part of the Genting group...Of course I met others that I had not met for quite sometime...The meeting makes my day for not only the lunch was great, the meeting of old friends that was out of sight for such a long period...was indeed a bonus at this golden age..., where friendship means a lot...... A young businessman with a kid join our table...and eventually, he a stranger soon became a friend...So the list of my friends began to grow...we exchange cards and promise to communicate later...We chat as we enjoy the meals and as with buffet we would leave the table for a while to sample more of the other delicacies and in between would meet the other guests as well...
