每一个新生的可爱的宝贵生命,都是造物主赋予父母最美好的礼物,他是父母相爱的证据,是父母生命的延续,倾注了父母多少无法衡量的爱。记得有位作家曾经说过:世界上的一切光荣和骄傲,都来自父母亲。双亲节本来只是一个纪念符号,其实不必太在意,它只是提醒我们,在忙碌的世界里不要忽略了年华已渐老去的父母亲,更不要忽视那份生命中弥足珍贵的亲情。
为了感恩这份浓浓的亲恩,翁氏总会第6届双亲节欢乐午餐会于2015年5月1日中午在巴耶利巴(千禧楼)举行,并同时举行第35届暨互助会第30届新理事就职典礼仪式,并诚邀本会名誉顾问、产业信托人烈强皇冠徽章宗长、海春PBM宗长为就职典礼监誓人。

The Recreation Committee of the Association organised a 3 days 4 nights trip to Penang, Kuala Sepetang and Ipoh. A total of 21 Clan members and their families signed up for the event. They assembled at the association in the evening of 18 June 2015, starting their journey to Penang at 8:30 pm by coach.
During the trip, the tour group travelled across the famous Penang Bridge, which is the 2nd longest bridge in Malaysia connecting Penang and the Malaysia Peninsula. The group visited the South East Asia's largest Buddhist temple, "Kek Lok Si" (极乐寺) and also went to the Clan Jetties, a century-old Chinese settlement of 6 jetties named after 6 different Chinese clans. They also got a chance to appreciate Penang Street Art during their stay in Georgetown, a UNESCO World Heritage Site.
At Kuala Sepetang, a small fishing village located off the Taiping, Perak state coast, they visited the biggest Charcoal production factory in Malaysia, followed by taking a scenic boat ride to view Matang mangrove forest, the largest unbroken expanse of mangrove swamp forest remaining in Malaysia. Over there, they observed eagles looking for food and visited the fish farm.
The group also had a relaxing time immersing themselves in the hot springs at the Lost World of Tambun in Ipoh. Everyone had lots of fun during their bike trip around the city, which gave them the opportunity to buy local food products and souvenirs. It was a rewarding experience.
The group also celebrated Father's Day, which happened to fall within the duration of the trip, and the tour members wished the best of health for all fathers on the trip.
This 3D/4N trip has not only allowed the clan members to enjoy the natural scenery and appreciate the cultural and historical beauty of Malaysia, but also fostered better bonds between fellow clan members, leaving behind beautiful memories for them.
