Happy Birthday Dec Babies!

Happy Birthday to KK and Weng May!  Our past president, who is always optimistic about life. He is a coach, who is passionate in helping young people achieve their dream in career progression.  Someone who walks his talk, that's KK.

Stay healthy and happy! Lots of love, from Taman Indrahana
