                                             Ravinder as a successful businessman

We have not met since he left the airlines. His last position was Inflight Supervisor with Singapore Airlines (SIA). He left in 1983 and that was 38 years ago. Last December I had the good fortune of meeting him. He is Ravinder Pal and now a very successful entrepreneur.

Ravinder is the CEO of his own company. His company provides advanced technology services to hotels around the globe. I won't go into detail about his company.

Last year when Ravinder heard that I was leaving for Japan, he hosted a dinner for me and some of our ex-colleagues at his private club.

In 2019, Ravinder sponsored a get-together for former MSA and SIA crew. He generously foot the bill for the party which 140 ex-colleagues attended. I was not present as I was in Japan.

Crew discriminated against (animation)

 

Crew were refused food at arrival

 Some crew had feedback that they were turned away by a few food outlets at the airport Changi terminal   after arriving from flights. The food outlets refused to let the crew buy food on the grounds that they have not been swabbed after operating their flights even though the flights were turnaround flights.

Their action tantamount to discrimination. In fact, the crew had received their vaccinations.

Walking one of my favourite dogs

 

Billy was a cute and adorable Yorkie. Whenever his "Papa & Mama" travelled, I would be asked to look after him. Billy loved his walks. He was a lovable and cute little "boy". 9 years ago at aged 5, Billy died of kidney failure. Not only was his "Papa & Mama" sad but my wife and I was sad too. This animation was done in remembrance of "Billy Boy".
