    The Nippon Maru was recently berthed in Port Klang, Malaysia for the Malaysian Country Program for the SSEAYP from 19th-22nd of November with the Reunion on Board on the 21st of November. Here are just some of the pictures from the lucky ex-PYs who managed to make it to Malaysia. Thanks to Jidulkristal (Hilman 06?) for the pics! If any one else who made it there want to show us your pics, just email them to me! :)

    The ship didn't stop in Brunei this year so a lot of BPYs decided to go to Malaysia for the reunion
