十年树木,百年树人
I have been making donations to NUS to help needy students for years, always making sure that my donations go to bursaries but this is the first time I am being invited to the award presentation.
Last year, I donated much more money than in previous years as I donated the proceeds from the many sessions of "Evening with AK and friends" I had last year as well.
"It is our honour to host this dinner to recognise our donors..." Professor Tan Eng Chye.
It is nice to be appreciated but I don't think I will attend the function.
Must go in office attire. I am so used to my comfortable shorts, t-shirt and flip flops these days.
Yes, I know.
Bad AK! Bad AK!
If we have money to invest with, we are probably more fortunate than most. If we can afford to help the needy, why not? ......
