CONSULATE BAZAAR

Consulate Bazaar is a yearly event organized by the Consulate Wives' Club in order to raise fund for their charity activities. Consulate General of Malaysia's wife, Puan Tahariah was also involved with the bazaar and called some Petronita members to help as she didn't have enough staff to run the bazaar. She knew that most of the ladies were busy with the Sports Carnival preparations etc...

"Sleeves up ladies..!!!! Frying keropok (fish crackers) time...!!!" Others will have to pack into sealed plastic bags while these 2 ladies did a good job frying the crackers..
Some Malaysian companies did their part to contribute their Malaysia products to be sold at the bazaar... "We just have to arrange OK..."
Taking a shot just before the yearly event bazaar was open to public..
"Wallaaa ladies... don't just smile in the picture, smile to others who comes to the booth too...OK.!!!
Puan Taha was so grateful with the ladies for their help and treated them to a lunch at Satay House... it was just a social and friendly work that the members did.. we care...!!

FAREWELL COMMITTEES...2005

Petronita Members consist of Vietnamese and Malaysian, staffs and spouses of various group of companies in Petronas. Most of the Vietnamese members are working, and thus most of the Malaysian ladies were given the responsibility to lead the committee in Petronita. But the Malaysian ladies will not be around for a long time as they will have to follow their husbands, once he has to be posted somewhere else. Saying farewells has been a difficult time for all, as we have been doing activities together and lived so close to each other, being so far away from family members in Malaysia..

Madam Ha has been prepared with her words, but still having difficulties to say it.. saying thank you and goodbye to members who have been dedicated to the association was not as easy as everyone could think..
This is Sharifah's second trip to HCMC, to accompany her husband together with her adorable kids.. She left us early November 2005..
Madam Normah presenting a small gift to Sharifah... a souvenir from Petronita for a dedicated member as Head of Business Committee..
Last but not least, a memorable shot together..
These four sweet and charming ladies (from left: Zainon, Anida, Zaleha and Siti Sahana) also left us during Summer School Holiday in August 2005..

We organized a farewell lunch at Amara Hotel.. to gather and to express how grateful we were, having them around all this while, as friend and sisters...

Souvenir to Siti Sahana.. an active & supportive member.. very good at sports & singing..

A souvenir to Zaleha too, been selected to receive Chairlady's Award during AGM this year..

To Anida.... the sweet, kind hearted and helpful member..

A souvenir to Zainon... who has been very informative, innovative and creative, to share her skills in arts and charity works..

Sad moment to all.. just couldn't share a smile huh...

Together forever... we shall all cherish those sweet moments wherever we are, wherever we go...
