A dose of youthful vitality


A BOUT of fever probably induced by the combination of heat and haze, followed by an annoying cough, caused (among other hits to productivity) writer’s block, but luckily, my colleague insisted that I meet a group of secondary school students from SMS Tuanku Aishah Rohani that is still known by the acronym SGS from its previous name, Science Girls School.

Indeed, I was present with Tuanku Aishah Rohani in 2017 when they changed the name of the school upon the site that was housed by another school named for a Tunku Ampuan of Negri Sembilan: Tunku Kurshiah.
