Had a great rest after the SLC forum.
Made our way to Vivocity seeking a place for lunch and we ended, unfortunately, at Terra Cafe.
It was unfortunate because the mushroom soup was diluted with milk...

(Notice the words on the Tshirt)
& the pasta is.... really just pasta, without any other ingredients.
In the evening, I attended the Inauguration Ceremony for the Wu Dang Sheng Hong Health Preservation Centre. It is a subsidiary of the Lorong Koo Chye Sheng Hong Temple. Eunos grassroots leaders were invited as guests for the grand occasion.
Before the event, I chatted with a passer-by. He identified himself as a member of the Nanyang Wing Chun Fist Association. He told me that for just $12 a year, one can register oneself as a student to learn Taiji at the new centre. There is a morning session and an evening session everyday. Interesting!
The Guest-of-Honour is Dr. Fatimah Lateef, MP for Marine Parade GRC (Geylang Serai). The Special Guest is Mr. Yeo Guat Kuang, MP for Aljunied GRC (Aljunied-Hougang). Both of them are also Honorary Advisers to the Temple.
In her opening address, Dr. Fatimah Lateef spoke in Mandarin for one section of her speech. It was a sincere effort that was replied with thunderous applauses. Sheng Hong Temple Association donated S$100 thousand to President's Star Charity. Dr. Fatimah Lateef also witnessed the presentation of the Singapore Book of Records for having the most number of people practising Taiji at one time.

There was a Taiji demonstration by the students. Experienced Taiji masters also presented various forms of the martial art and displayed their skills with various weapons. It was an eye-opener.
