IEM Shout Out – Family Day

July 23, 2010

I don’t know how I managed to miss this. The IEM family day is  happening this Sunday, 25th July 2010.

  • Time: 9am to 1 pm
  • Location: Taman Jaya, Petaling Jaya, Selangor

I’ll be around, signing autographs for those who recognize me. Don’t expect my John Hancock to sell well on eBay, or lelong. com.my. I suppose I could get impromptu dunked if anyone wants to pay high enough… contact the organisers, ask to dunk Councilman Wata.
