The Guest of Honour for our Installation was our District Governor, Datuk Danny Ooi who was accompanied by various members of his Cabinet.

Kuantan Welcomes Our YE

On a hot afternoon on the 12th of August, the Lions Clubs of Kuantan City and Indera Mahkota made its way to the Kuantan Bus Terminal to welcome five youth exchanges (YE) arriving from Kuala Lumpur.

The YEs were from Finland (2), Italy (1) and Japan (2). After much waiting the bus ferrying them arrived, as usual much later than the scheduled arrival time.

On hand to meet them were Members from our Club and Indera Mahkota, as well as the host families. After various pleasantries, the host families took the YEs back with them.

The YEs spent ten days in Kuantan with their host families. On their last day, Kuantan City and Indera Mahkota invited the YEs to their Joint-Installation Dinner at Restaurant Mexica.

Day of the Leos

The Club’s project for the month of August was the organisation of an Information Day for potential Leos on the 1st of August. The event was organised by Lions Karen Kwok, Wendy Yap and Philip Yen.

The event was held to provide information and better understanding on being a member of the Leos Club. This is to allow interested participants to gauge for themselves the positive values of joining the Leos Club and ultimately to graduate to the Lions Club level.

Various Members of our Club gave talks on the advantages of being a Leo.
The event saw the attendance of ten school students who were interested in setting up a Leos Club.
