MFN Farewell Party

1

Dear Friends,

As most of you would have heard that the Malaysian Fishing Net aka MFN will be closing by mid February 2012. Most of us fishos had a great time there for the past 12 years. For those who were there from the beginning saw the introduction of Malaysia’s first Catch and Release pond at Tow Foo, the lengthy and often fiery debate on the introduction of the Peacock Bass in Malaysia, the inaugural U series , etc, etc, etc.

To most, MFN remained a wealth of information on the various fishing disciplines, a place to meet fellow anglers and place to hang out and call “home”. MFN was the place where we got to rub shoulders with the likes of Aznir Malik, UBob, Mejor Ismail, Chris Tan, etc and last but not least our very own Elvis Malaysia; Mr D!

It made the angling world smaller as we arranged trips to destinations that would have otherwise been impossible to make on our own. It brought about camaraderie and solidarity where race and ethnicity is a foreign word. We shared the sorrow and happiness of fellow forumers be it in a birth, death or anniversaries but most importantly we shared it as brothers and sisters.

This MFN Farewell Party is not for sorrow and heartache but to celebrate the 12 glorious years that we shared together!

It has been decided that it would be a BBQ/Steamboat buffet dinner. Details as below:

Guys and Gals,

Please be reminded that the cut off time is on January 30, 2012. You have exactly 19 days from today; that’s plenty of time to confirm your participation. We need a cut off time to confirm the number of pax to the caterers

With this place, we can:
a. have proper tables and seating
b. unlimited buffet spread with ice cream and drinks
c. give a “roasting” on Vincent
d. bring along family
e. no up-front payment. You pay the restaurant.

That’s Junglebum @ El Schnicko, plus MamaJeay and 4-year old JungleJim.

I’ll probably get a whipping from Mr Beh Sok and Mr D, for being a Towfoo absentee for 2 whole years[B)]

Unker Thomas: You MUST come!!! Then we can talk about MFN Journal.

Prince Vince: Maybe some techie in our group shud do a ppoint presentation on the colourful history of MFN, for us to enjoy at the dinner. Just a thot.
