Montfort Photos – 1976 & 1983
WOW!! It just amazes me that people from hometown Batu Pahat are working and living all over the world.
The following 2 photos are contributions from Paul Lim who is currently in Mongolia. He happened to surf by this website and saw the Montfort School postings. He wants to share these 2 pictures to the rest of the Montfort Alumni.
He took out his camera and snapped the old photos and sent them in. He notes that Mr Long looks the same in both photos.
Montfort Kindergarten in 1976.
Montfort Primary 6 in 1983.
So… did you see yourself in the photos? If you in the photo, and want to make contact with Paul Lim, drop me an email, I will connect you to him.
If you like to view the larger photos, visit the Forum Pages.
p/s. If you have not been visiting the Forum, there’s our resident know all person who wants to be known as Tigersden there. He is one of our BP resident staying there and knows lots and lots about BP. Thanks for his contribution to this website.

Had some of your Brothers visit us recently. Keep the flag flying.
Wow, I was the same batch with Paul Lim, this photo remind of the kids days. How can get contact with Pual Lim? He is in Mongolia, well
good memory, photo, later i post mine
I’m not sure about the 1st photo but the 2nd photo should be dated 1983. That was when Paul, Char Chin and I were in Darjah 6. Is it possible to send me the contact for Paul Lim? Many thanks!
Yep, the second photo would be that of the class of ’83 cos I’m from class of ’82.
OK. I think it should be 1983
I just updated the post to the correct date. Paul forgot which year he was in? hehe..
huhuh full of memories,Mr long (headmaster)… i miss u so much..~! come give me a spank with ur long cane~! ngee.~!
My atok , Cikgu Mohd Din, used to teach at this school
Mr. Long the great headmaster.. miss him loh…
omigosh, i recognize some people as being from the same year as I am, except I went to Convent and then to TIGS. I think I see Tong Mun Yee, Lim Eng Yong, ?Kor Cher Bann, maybe even Yap Soon Meng & Chin Huat and some others whom I’ve forgotten their names already. Philip, maybe you can message Paul Lim ( i wonder if i knew him ) for me and tell him i was in the same school year as him, and might have gone to the same tuition classes or something. Thanks !
Dear Friends,
Those were the good old days.
I still remember Mr Long sneaking from our back of the class, then giving those who were not sitting down a big smack with the rotan.
I can be contacted at paullim71@gmail.com, or +976 997-007-12 (feel free to contact me if you have business in Mongolia – haha!)
Signed,
Paul (Tua-Pau)

Ah, I met Choon Chiang one time when I was a medical officer,some time in 2002 or something like that. he had become a doctor too . I’ll bet he’s some kind of super dooper specialist by now, that brainiac.:)
oh, and Ling ( not the twins ) is probably Victor.
Hmm some familiar names there, though you people are my senior. Know a few of the names from church.
Mr Long! Omigosh.. that is so nostalgic! I finished my primary 6 in 1990.
lmao@mr long looks the same!!!!1…. he really does, doesnt he…. his youngest son was my junior in college here in fayeteville, AR….. took the opportunity to tell him horror stories about how his dad used to “abuse” us…lol…
Boys!! Pick up the paper!!
erm given that some members are overseas and can not access the papers here, jennson how about scanning what the paper is about and past it in the forum. =/
i think what jennson meant what mr long’s famous phrase…coz he always walks along the side of the street picking up trash and expects his students do to the same…lol
ah I see, i misinterpreted the statement cause i was never from montfort.
hahahaa… i almost didnt get it too until a little later…mr long and his infamous phrase…
Hi hi everyone. Gosh the pictures are so old. I can recognise a few of the boys. Paul, what are you doing in Mongolia?
sorry tigersden for my late reply..chin hong u got it rite!! he even appears in the local chinese newspaper lately as the ‘cleanest man’ in bphat!! Mr Long I SALUTE YOU!
Hi,
This is Boon How here… Lim Boon How…
I was standing next to Cher Ban in the photo
3rd person to my left was Jet Wei
Then infront of Andrew was Shuh Chong…
Great to see this old photo and some of the familar faces again…
I know most of these guys as they were my juniors in Montfort and SMKA. Any of you want to get in touch with me, drop me a line at lionel_yong2000@yahoo.com or +971 50 1461628 if you’re ever in Dubai.
the form teacher for 6B as you mention was Mr Koh Guan Hee. I still see him once a while and guess wat he is not a day older.
Gosh! You’re in Mongolia, Paul? What’s Phillip’s full name?
Mr. Koh, our ex-deputy headmaster looks pretty much the same. Mr. Long, I heard has passed away not long ago. Don’t know how true that is.
Anyway guys, I can be reached at my email ship1510@hotmail.com.
