As Salaam,After a lapse of one month of Nowruz celebration in Iran, this month's ALC Coffee Morning was kindly hosted by our gracious Malaysian colleague Madam Jakkiah Basran at the Malaysian Residence, on Sunday April 17th.
The morning gathering began with the host's usual welcome speech, preceded by a introductory remark from the outgoing ALC president, Mrs Angkana Sirivat. It was also a farewell occasion and to bid 'bon voyage' to one of our dearest, active and dedicated members, Mrs Hajah Norsinawaty, who will be leaving Tehran very soon.
During the morning meeting, Mrs Siti Timah Mamat from Malaysia, was unanimously declared and appointed as the new ALC president to succeed Mrs Angkana for the new session.
The highlight of the morning was a cooking presentation of delectable Iranian cuisine by an expert Iranian lady. There was also a mini bazaar showcasing of beautiful Malaysian handicraft and products, a raffle draw, and finally followed by a late morning breakfast of the well-known Malaysian 'nasi lemak'.
A great occasion to remember and to catch up with one another after a month-long hiatus.
Wassalam.
