The "Row
& Roar" - Health Family Dragon Boat Race
has ended excitingly on 23 April 2005. Below are
some of the highlights brought to you by our NHG
team!
“SHIOK…!!!” was what the team
captain Shyard Wong had to say after leading the
NHG team to victory at the MOH Health Family Dragon
Boat Race. And “shiok” best describes
the feeling of camaraderie and team spirit among
the rowers and supporters at Kallang Basin.
Doctors, nurses, administrative staff –
from the rank and file to NHG CEO Dr Lim Suet
Wun – everyone was in high spirits, together
as One in NHG. And it was sweet victory when our
teams came in first and second runner-up
in the finals of the race.
Radiation therapist Ren Wei from NUH says: “It
was a wonderful feeling rowing together as an
NHG team.” Dr Jane Tan from TTSH, still
reeling from the euphoria says: “It was
great fun! I’m hooked!”
“This is so happening,” says coding
clerk Zubaidah AG, who was seen cheering loudly.
She came armed with party poppers. One of the
participants in the race, Zubaidah also joins
in the annual NHG tournaments in basketball, netball,
badminton and volleyball. “Anything also
I eat, so must exercise lah!” says Zubaidah.
Of the MOH Health Family – we were the
loudest, noisiest and the jolliest around. IMH
big band sound led by assistant nursing director
Peter Wong rallied NHG supporters to cheer on
our teams in the race. “You can count on
us to create a ruckus to add to the fun in the
spirit of NHG!”
