Dear Fellow Ex-BBians and Friends,
Upgrading of Dr. McGregor Hall (Old School Hall)
The Bukit Bintang Boys’ Secondary School is one of the oldest secondary school in the city of Petaling Jaya. Its central location has made the school a well-known institution and landmark especially in the areas of section 52 as well as sections 11, 12, 13 and 14.
As you know, one of the facilities of the school is a single-storey multi-functional school hall (now named Dr. Alastair McGregor Hall, after the first Principal of the school) which is about 50 years old. The hall is being used throughout the year for many school functions as well as for public exams.
After five decades, the hall is now in urgent need of repair. In view of the extensive work that is needed to repair the hall, the school Board of Governors has decided to renovate and upgrade the hall in the following manner :-
- Replacing the roof due to leaks resulting from wear and tear
- Replacing the ceiling which has deteriorated and at risk of collapse
- Replacing the stage which has been badly damaged by termites
- Tiling the flooring which is currently cement rendered
- Replacing the louvered windows and doors
- Rewiring the original old electrical wiring and adding additional lighting
- Adding new toilet facilities to the renovated hall
- Extending the hall by another 25 feet.
This is quite a major renovation and upgrade and the project is expected to cost RM 500,000. The school is approaching all stakeholders to be involved in the fund raising for this project ie. the School Alumni (Old Boys Association), the Persatuan Ibubapa dan Guru-guru (PIBG) and the church (as owners of the school).
We will be most grateful if you can be co-partners with us in this endeavor to provide safer and better facilities to the students and teachers. We already have some ex-BBians involved in the project and we welcome any support, whether in the form of monetary contribution, products or services. So if you would like to have more information on how you can help, please give me a call (012-288 3105).
If you would like to make a donation, you can issue a crossed cheque to
“Lembaga Pengelola, SMK(L) Bukit Bintang ” and sent it to :-

Bukit Bintang Boys Secondary School’s Class of ’70
BIG HEARTS: The amount donated to the school for its annual food programme
PETALING JAYA: Seventy of them last met 41 years ago.
The Bukit Bintang Boys Secondary School’s Class of ’70 recently had a reunion dinner to recall the good times spent there. Some came from overseas to attend the function.
Past and present headmistresses and teachers were invited to grace the dinner in recognition of their sacrifices and contributions.
In his welcome address, organising committee chairman William Chan announced the intention of the Class of ’70 to give back to its alma mater by assisting poor students in their educational needs.
The Class of ’70 Trust Fund was formed with RM100,000 collected via contributions from classmates, well-wishers and in collections for the night. Fourteen tables were sponsored by 14 classmates.
The dinner also saw a cheque presentation of RM20,900 to senior assistant Mah Pin Sin and retired headmistress Quah Mooi Eng for the school’s annual food programme to ensure poor students have adequate nutrition to concentrate on their studies. The donations came from the Class of ’70.
Prior to the dinner, a golf game was held while the old boys were invited back for a school tour the following dayas most of them had not been back since the 70s.
During dinner, the old boys tried hard to recollect names of faces they had not seen for decades.
Entertainment for the night was provided by the Broken Pieces Band, led by Ayi, an old boy, with songs from the 70s and 80s.
The big surprise of the night was a scintillating belly dance performance by a professional dancer, reminiscent of the Rose Chan era.
As the night wore on, the late 58ers and their spouses boogied the night awa
I asked Mdm Quah for a short story on her teaching career and how she ended up as HM of BBBSS and this is what I received.
“My teaching career started in Jan 1977 at Malay College,Kuala Kangsar, Perak: where I taught for 4 years. I went to Kuala Kubu Bharu for a year before going to Convent Bukit Nanas in 1981 where I taught for 9 years.
“From there I was transfered to SMJK Chong Hwa, KL for 15 years before I took up the post in BBBSS in 2005.
My time in BBBSS lasted exactly 6 years. I must say I enjoyed working in BB. The Board, Alumni and PTA are very supportive and I have a very cooperative staff. The students have been respectful and manageable.
Accomplishments in BBBSS
“We celebrated the Golden Jubilee in 2008. The Computer Lab was relocated and upgraded, the Auditorium, the Science Labs, were upgraded. The walkway, the School Cooperative,the Teacher’s Cafe, the Gym, and the Squash Complex fenced and refurbished 10 Squash Courts in 2006. The road to the Squash Complex was retarred in 2008, and 2 waiting sheds were build outside the school.The stairways to the canteen and from the canteen to the Squash Complex were upgraded last year.
“The whole school was rewired last year and we are still waiting for the upgrading of the electricity supply. The McGregor Hall was air conditioned last year and will be pulled down and rebuilt in 2011.
Plans After Retirement
“After retirement, I will continue to support and help with the rebuilding of the McGregor Hall , I hope to contribute whatever I can in the future.”
The reunion of BBBSS Class of 1965 was reported in The Star. http://thestar.com.my/metro/story.asp?file=%2F2010%2F11%2F16%2Fcentral%2F7397472&sec=central
