Shafee and I celebrated our 57th wedding anniversary in 2023. Our nikah (solemnisation) ceremony was held on June 12 1966 at the government quarters at 3420 Bukit Guillemard (now Bukit Ledang), Kuala Lumpur, and the bersanding (wedding reception) ceremony six months later at my father’s house at Jalan Mayang, off Jalan Ampang, Kuala Lumpur.

It was held over two days, on Dec 9, 1966 for relatives and on Dec 10 1966 for friends. We had by then moved out of the government quarters in Bukit Guillemard as my father had retired from government service.
