Thanks 'The Hostel Boys' for the old photos.
I could recognised some of my senior.Srd.Idris Jamalludin for one the Discovery Nite 74' champion with the song 'Dunia Ku',Annuar Md.Nor,Allahyarham Srd.NorAzahari(Captain),Allahyarham Srd.Annuar Johari,Srd.Razak Hitam,Srd.Yazid Kassim,Srd.Halim Yackob,Srd.Norazam Yusof,Srd.Rosman Ibrahim,Srd.Nordin Ahmad.Sanny my junior, etc.
Yes,its a mixed brunch.I was at MHS hostel for only a year during my form 3.Form 3 was acrucial year.LCE examination year.Ayah was worried about my acedemic performance thus he dragged me to be in High School Hostel for that year.Form 1-2,I was at ABC.I was at home in year 4th and 5th.
Yes,ABC Hostel,some prejudism against the ABC Hostelite.
Some suggested that it was a Gangster Hostel for boys.
No,it is not true at all.Abang Abd.Halim Abd.Rahman,top Malacca and MHS student 1972 was an alumi of ABC ,so do our Dr.Baba,the famous mercy volunteer whom made the head line for being shot at the buttok in Kabul.
Its a mix hostel from boys all around Malacca and from various Malacca School.We blend together well.
However,you would find the ego trip among MHS guys against other school such GBS,SDHS,ACS,SFI ect.
Yes, in sports we were definately rivals particularly with SFI in hockey,rugger with SDHS.
Those guys come from far away as Machap Umbu and as determine and as able as any other MHS guys.This prejudism arise from lack of understanding among our own back yard.
Some hails from Jasin,Mesjid Tanah or Linggi or as further as my buddy Mong ie.Hamdan Hassan,Wan Shah and Nuraddin Wahab did fromBukit Senggeh,Selandar.
Srd.Hamdan Hassan.
(Has anyone knows where he is or have met him or his hp.number pleased contact Class Monitor pleased)
Thus,this social stigma are stick among us.
To some,it remain in us until today.
We were just ordinary boys hoping to achieve the best what the town could offered to us coz'
that was the first time we stayed and began to learn the town lingo.
Some of the boys whom stayed at MHS hostel during Form 1 has to move out to ABC to make room for the Sabah Boys.
Yes,I remember some Panggabion a/l Dusuggun from Kelait or Sandakan bah!
They were rich.
The Yayasan Sabah provides them with lot of cash.
We were penniless,meleleh air lior,almost every day those Sabah Boys bersantap satay at the hostel.Wak satay will be there sharp at 3 pm.
Some hot head lion, like Srd.Amran Latiff hails from Ramuan Cina Kecil,Lubok Cina will definately gives them a fling any moment even though fight does not occurs but the jelousy and aggrovation arise due to the extra material they had from their sponsor.
Best radio with player with cassette and being the pet of Cikgu Mat Sekeping off course!
That was the reason for the aggrovation,some boy just got to leave for ABC to make way for the Sabah boys.Moving to ABC means having to walk to and from for 1km.to school.While the MHS hostlite was having their lunch right after school,we were on our way either walking or cycling in the hot sun .Worst,upon arriving, the menu would be Nasi and Kari Ikan Jaws.
That is the reason why I could not recall 1/2 of the guys coz the other 1/2 is Sabahans.
