Given my track (no pun intended) record with finding places and getting lost while driving, I was glad I eventually made my way to Ti Ratana Welfare Society, Desa Petaling. Even though there were a few block of separate buildings at Ti Ratana, it was easy to locate the 2T Keepers, I only had to follow the sound of friendly chatter and merry laughter, and that immediately brought back fond memories of the 3 days I spent with them at Cameron Highlands.

The project of the day was to help paint the building that was damaged in a fire. This used to house the girls before the fire, which was caused by an electrical fault. The 2T Keepers pooled their resources together to not only purchase the paint and equipment, but also offered their ‘painting skills’ to help with the renovation of the building. (I’m serious guys, I thought we didn’t do too bad a job)

Sim and Diana, our official hat makers.

Newspaper hats - in fashion and quite useful!

Caution! Men at work. Painting takes a lot of hardwork too you know.

Lots of other physical work besides just colouring the walls.

Energy booster! The food was a welcoming break from all the hardwork.

Tireless Keepers hard at work ensuring that every part of the shelter was covered in a new coat of paint.

Painting those hard to reach places.

It was so good to meet you guys again, and catch up and remember our pledges and the 8 Flames of Leadership, and the interesting things that happened on the highlands, especially the one involving a mild harassment case on our quest to the fireplace!

Good job Keepers!
