Khong Tuck Khoon Beyond my avian pursuits, I harbor an insatiable curiosity for a myriad of subjects. This extends to nurturing a garden of ornamental plants, a hobby that has brought its own set of joys and challenges. As the constraints of advancing age have gently redirected my interests, my once fervent pursuits of travel and gastronomic exploration have yielded to a newfound focus on the historical evolution of Georgetown on Penang Island. In essence, my journey has been one of continual exploration and adaptation, weaving together a tapestry of experiences that span the realms of nature, travel, and historical discovery.

I was lucky! Born in the era of "Baby Boomers" after the World Wars II. So by the time I retire, it was also at the time of change of the millennium. In that era or even now, my contemporaries would be pondering what could they do after 55 years old? Well, perhaps here are the few years to grope around, tie up loose ends etc. Those who were luckier and did "find" themselves at 60 years old, would be among the much happier lot. I would say, after 60 years mark, the new direction would be "Let's live it up" - do those to things that we always wanted to do. True, then by 70 years old, almost autumn time, it's the era to slow down and consolidate your life. Take stock of your life and compile your experiences into records. You could retrieve those personal but useful record, organise the information for your eventual easy and leisure reading in your winter years. i.e. when you are no longer that mobile The last kick!.
