Longest serving SIA cabin crew

 



Ng Yak Keng was a low profile crew but all of a sudden he is in the limelight because of his retirement a few weeks ago. He is 67 and had served SIA for 46 years.

Soon when the crew retirement is extended to 70 years, he won't be the longest serving crew with SIA.

Crew served pork to a Muslim pax on a New York flight

 Recently our crew served a biz class Muslim pax pork or more specifically  prosciutto. The pax did not order Muslim meal but he did ask the crew whether prosciutto in the salad was pork. The answer was it was not pork and safe to eat. Later the pax found out that it was pork. He complained and the news spread like wildfire. He refused the compensation of 30,000 Krisflyer miles. SIA is in contact with him and trying to find a solution.

Back from Singapore

 Back from SG few days ago. Strangely I didn't enjoy much of the food except for  curry fish head at Apollo Banana Leaf.

Weatherwise, it was similar to the summer months in Fukuoka. I met up with my schoolmates and friends. Still missing SG as usual!

Sunny Kam and Hiyashi chuka

 

 


This hiyashi chuka, a cold noodle dish which the Japanese eats during the hot summer. This dish brings back memory of Sunny Kam who passed away recently.

It was 1988 when Sunny who was a cs then that I flew with him to Fuk. We had a few days in Fuk. 

One afternoon we ordered hiyashi chuka for lunch. When our orders arrived, Sunny was shocked to find the noodles were cold. He called the waitress and complained that the noodles were cold. Little did we realised that the dish was supposed to be cold. There was a commotion as we could not speak Japanese and the waitress could not speak English. Sunny was angry and demanded the staff replaced the cold noodles with something hot. Again due to both parties unable to understand each other there was chaos. Some customers tried to help but to no avail. To the Japanese there was nothing wrong with the cold noodles but to Sunny noodles should not be served or eaten cold.

After much frustration, we left the restaurant. Later we found out that there was a misunderstamding.
