Hey guys, I have been in Vancouver, Canada for the last 22 years, and accidentally bumped into Azim Bhimji who told me about the reunion a little too late. So keep in touch and keep up the good work. I hope to see the reunion photos. Do drop me a word to those who remember "the artist" Mehboob Dewji.

Please make a note: The underscore in my Email address appears as a space in the heading, "My Email," on this site. By simply placing the cursor over the blue underline, the correct address does, however, show in the status bar at the bottom of the brows r. Type an underscore between Aziz and Paku when sending Email, otherwise, the software will spit out an error. Thanks a bunch. With Ya Ali Madad, Paku

I am pleasantly surprised to see many familiar names of former A.K.B.S. students listed on-line. Back in Dar, I was the lead-guitar player and vocalist of a band called, The Satan Bugs. As some of you might recall, the band frequently held concerts at th school's fabulous music/theater hall, up until at least the end of 1969. Incidentaly, I still crank-up my guitar every now and then! Congratulations to the person responsible for brilliantly designing this site to help locate old friends dispersed worldwide after the Ismaili exodus from E. Africa. It would be my great pleasure to revive old friendships via E-mail, should anyone be int rested. With Ya Ali Madad, Paku

Reunion Comments:: 10weeks have passed but the nostalgia and feeling of spiritual elation still remains. Inshallah it will remain forever.
What would you like to see on our website?: News of our collegues and teachers and families.All kinds of updates.
How can you help with maintaining our website?: Using it of course.
Should we put personal profiles? No brag just facts.: Yes, sometimes it is difficult to stop people going overboard. A sincere appeal to everyone is to keep the objectives of the reunion in mind and try not to offend.
This site does not allow any advertising for personal gain: I beg to differ or at least throw in another opinion. If somebody has something to offer which will be of benefit to others, it should be allowed. We did some networking during the reunion and that should be promoted. A suggestion that full disclosure should be made. If anything is offensive or overboard, Mohamed Jiwa who is our gatekeeper to the site can filter it!

Comments:
Hope you won't the above too radical.

Unfortunately, only 6 0r with the teachers, 8 people have responded. We do know that everyone is really busy. It would be a mistake to let go of the special feeling that we were able to demostrate in Calgary. Life is too short and all of have to depart, w y not have something to take with ourselves.

Comments:
As I previously noted "WHAT A PARTY! WHAT A BLAST!!Ya Ali Madad to you all, I have had lots of fun in the last few years but nothing compares to the last weekend. I can not describe in words what I have been through. The emotions were running high, all the singing (songs from the scouts, jeshi, schooldays, etc.) - songs that brought back big memories, the joking, the dancing, Father Peera (we were all blessed - I hope for the better!), Zul's powerpoint presentation, Zauhar sharing his big time experiences. We all shared many old memories. Trying to sleep at night has become difficult as thousands of old and new memories race through the mind - but it is a great feeling. Thanks to the teachers, including your families for coming. I feel sorry for those who did not or could not attend. They can never appreciate what they missed. Once again, thanks from Navin, Rahim and myself to everyone who participated, specially those that came from outside Calgary. A special thanks to all your families who supported you. God bless you all."

Sincerely,
