The main concerns at the AGM were related to the future of the club. Vice-President Eric Tan addressed members’ concerns, highlighting that the Club is currently exploring different available options with golf as a priority. He said: “We have deliberated and found that the better option for the social clubhouse is the site allocated to us on the Seletar Aerospace, rather than Yishun Avenue 1 or Bukit Batok, which is in the heartland area.”

Mr Tan also stated that it would take two years to build a clubhouse, and with four-and-a-half years on Keppel’s lease left, there was no need to rush into making a decision. However, the Club’s main priority was still to find another golf club to merge with, so that members would be able to enjoy the golf facilities.

This year’s Annual General Meeting (AGM) took place on Monday, April 24 at Keppel Hall, and 213 principal members attended. President Lai Mun Onn called the meeting to order and the AGM commenced at 6.30pm. Following feedback from the floor, the minutes of last year’s AGM, Annual Report and Accounts were adopted.

Members listening attentively as the AGM officially commenced.

Following up, Captain C.S. Kong updated members on the new developments for golf. This included plans for a merger with a local club and the search for a home for our golfers outside Singapore. More importantly, he shared that the management committee had sent a proposal to Changi Golf Club (CGC), proposing a full merger.

Although CGC’s Committee’s response has been negative due to the size of our membership, Captain was confident that there would be a solution eventually. CGC are also facing challenges in making their club financially viable after being offered a land lease renewal of up to 2040. The MC would continue to engage CGC in talks to address each other’s concerns.

President Lai Mun Onn addresses a question from the crowd.

Voting begins in the contest for the role of House & Bar Convenor.

On the issue of finding a home outside of Singapore for members, Captain also shared that the Management Committee has been in discussions with Sinar Mas Land over a viable proposal. As it stands, Sinar Mas own three golf courses – Palm Springs (Batam), Palm Resort (Johor Bahru) and Sedana Golf and Country Club Karawang (Jakarta). He added that the Club had already signed reciprocal agreements with two of the clubs. He also voiced his confidence that Sinar Mas Land would be able to come up with an offer to meet the requirements of Keppel Club and its members in due time.

Following this, President Lai added that the MC is engaging NTUC to explore a collaboration with their public golf courses when our lease runs out in end 2021. He then elaborated on the recent termination of the reciprocal agreement with Hollandse Club on May 15. Despite the cessation of this agreement, President Lai reiterated that the Club would be keen to explore future opportunities with them.

When responding to queries from Mr Frankie Lim, about the viability of a social club in Seletar aerospace, President Lai also said that the Club has been holding back on accepting the government’s offer of that site due to its high costs for the lease and construction. The topic of Raffles Country Club’s (RCC) forthcoming closure was also brought up.

Mr Clarence Chia and Mr Frankie Lim suggested in following RCC’s practice of a monthly subscription of $1 and $20 a month of food vouchers to be given back to members if nothing is viable.

Mr Chia also expressed concern that the Club would reach a stage where they would run out of time and not be able to spend the money reasonably. As a result, he questioned if their money would eventually go to charity.

In a reply to Mr Chia and Mr Lim, President Lai made a distinction between RCC’s situation and Keppel Club’s, emphasising it would be unwise to replicate what RCC has done for their members in terms of reduced membership subscription rates. The President stated that the Club needs to be prudent with its coffers for future development, and reassured members that the end of the land lease does not represent the end of Keppel Club.

The President also shared that the MC had been looking at a few golfing solutions, including a few driving ranges, and nine-hole public golf courses. However, these were all deemed by the government to be short-term leases. The President assured members that the Committee would conduct a survey and reach consensus when it has viable and concrete plans before putting up its recommendations to the Chairman or Deputy Chairman for decision.

Members also asked for the basis of the return of six months of property tax back to members. Club Treasurer Teh Lim Chai clarified that the Club is able to give such rebates back to members due to the accumulation of excess tax collected over previous years along with rebates given by the IRAS.

The President then announced the appointment of members of the Management Committee by the Deputy Chairman for the ensuing term. All but one of the MC positions up for election were returned unopposed, including Dr Khoo Ih Chu who took over the position of the Convenor for Swimming and Entertainment from Mr Ronald Phua, who did not stand for election. There was a contest for the position of House and Bar Convenor which took place between Mr Khor Chee Kok and Mr Derrick Lee Kheng Chye. Mr Lee was elected to be the new House and Bar Convenor for the 2017/2018 term.

Members then proceeded to approve the proposal to appoint BDO LLP as the Club’s external auditor for the year 2017/2018.

The AGM was declared closed at 8.40pm and members proceeded to have dinner provided by the club’s four restaurants in the hall.

Sunday, May 28, 2017. It was all quiet and serene at 11.30am at the Tee Top. Then participants for Captain’s Prize 2017 started to stream in and the buzz started.

By Loh Teck Heng, Green Committee member

At the registration booth, on top of the usual individual participants’ bet, there was also a friendly side wager organised against Captain C.S. Kong, all in the name of charity. Captain Kong is either very well liked or everyone wanted “a piece” of him as the response for both bets was overwhelming.

Participants then proceeded to the buggy station and gathered

for a group picture. After a brief welcome note from the man himself, Captain Kong wished everyone a great game and got the marshal to send a total of 22 flights to their respective tee boxes for a shotgun start.

It was almost a perfect day for golf, and we sincerely gave our best wishes to Captain Kong on his game. But was it to be?

Although Captain Kong went around telling everyone, just before dinner commenced, that he had improved his performance over the last event in 2015 (2016’s game was rained out) by one Stableford point, it would have to be an absolutely below par game for any of the participants on that day not to have won against the Captain. And let’s leave it as that.

Our delighted golfers gather for a memorable photo.

The winner of this year’s Captain’s Prize is none other than Mr Yusof Musa!

The post-game dinner was another huge buzz with good food and great camaraderie shown all around Keppel Hall, and this year, the winner of the Captain’s Prize 2017 challenge shield was Mr Yusof Musa with a score of 42 points ocb.

But the biggest “winner” of the day was the collection of $4,800 in the name of charity, of which $1,000 was donated by a single donor who has chosen to remain anonymous.

Well done again to the golf office for another great event! And thank you to all participating members for the tremendous support and your great charitable contributions.

Switzerland is an absolute godsend in the springtime, especially if you love picturesque views and indulging in gelato.

The late Charlie Chaplin once took regular walks along Lake Geneva, one of the most scenic lakes in the world, when he lived in the canton of Vaud between 1953 until the day of his death.

And last April, I had the amazing opportunity to follow in Chaplin’s footsteps while walking down the same beautiful long, flowered-bordered lake promenade.

Along with a hike up the legendary Matterhorn mountain in Zermatt, made iconic by the “Toblerone” series of chocolates, the visit to Montreux was the highlight of my Swiss trip.

And perhaps it was the expressive vibe of the city that drew me to it - from its free-spirited lifestyle (picture yoga on an open grass and bankers dressed in bunny outfits at the train station) to its quaint cafes. But more than that, it was looking out into the lake, and being captivated by the sight of a 1000-year-old historic monument.

Indeed, nestled in a sheltered Lake Geneva bay, surrounded by vineyards and against the breathtaking backdrop of snow-covered Alps sat Montreux’s real gem : the magnificent Chillon castle.

A MEDIEVAL WONDER

As a massive “Game of Thrones” (TV series) fan, visiting the castle - which was also made popular by British poet Lord Byron in his work “The Prisoner of Chillon” (1816) - had always been at the top of my bucket list.

Located on a rocky island near the shore, it was like discovering a medieval history book. From the cobbled pathways to fortified walls and towers, it has been well-preserved through the centuries.

Wall paintings from the 14th century adorn the walls, and visitors are invited to wander into the subterranean vaults, parade halls and the bedroom (which has been preserved in its original form) dating to the time of Bernese rule. The entire complex consists of 25 buildings and three courtyards, protected by two circular walls.

Climbing up to and exploring the castle showed how Chillon was really double function castle, which adds to its uniqueness.

The façade opposite the mountain, pierced by arrow slits and loopholes and topped by machicolations on the battlements, is the fortress that protects the road, the Via Italica. Facing the lake, Gothic windows adorn the façade of the princely residence. The keep in the centre of the castle is also linked to the dwelling via the sentry walks.

Having visited many castles in Europe previously including Hampton Court in England and Alcázar of Segovia

Armour belonging to knights are also displayed at the castle.

The long, flower-bordered lake promenade which is beautiful all year round is simply asking to be strolled along.

in Spain, I was particularly enchanted by Chillon’s proximity to the beautiful alps, a symbol of Swiss neutrality. In fact, a running folklore among the Swiss is that they often had soldiers “hiding” behind the alps, waiting for troublemakers to show themselves.

It’s no wonder that with all these stories around it, Château de Chillon - as the locals call it - remains the most-visited historic building in the whole of Switzerland.

Inspiring as it was, visiting the castle reminded me that life is short, so travel as much as you can and be happy!

Onde-onde is a traditional dessert popular in Indonesia, Malaysia and Singapore. The sweet glutinous rice balls are infused with pandan juice and filled with gula melaka or palm sugar and then rolled in with some fresh grated coconut.

On Saturday, May 20, our lady golfers gathered for a memorable day together. It was time for the Ladies Committee Cup and our participants did well to remind each other that they were not just friends, but also competitive rivals! Held in the Stableford format, favourable conditions on the course allowed the golfers to play their hardest, and as friends always do, there was plenty of playful ribbing going on throughout the event.

By Gilbert Wong

As always, the lady golfers didn’t just want to play well, but look good and feel good too. There was never a dull moment on the fairways and the moment the camera was pointed at them, they were ready to strike a pose.

The ASM followed soon after in what promised to be an eventful evening ahead. A delicious spread awaited the tired and hungry ladies atop Berlayer Terrace, and

all attendees were having a blast, mingling with each other and having a tasty dinner.

After all those in attendance had their fill, Lady Captain Olivia Chung addressed everyone in attendance and the meeting started proper. Following a brief introduction by two new members, Ms Wendy Wen and Ms Kaori Tamura, the prize presentation ceremony for the monthly medal

winners for the past months commenced, and of course, the announcement of who this year’s Ladies Committee Cup winner is.

The winner was none other than Ms Sandra Soon who took the title with a total score of 40 points! She narrowly edged out Ms Cathy Yeap and Ms Pauline Pang who were tied at 38 points apiece, showing how close of a fight it was.

Say cheese: Lady Vice-Captain Howe Wenli (left) and Ms Mandy Lim are definitely not camera-shy!

On May 23, the club conducted its emergency standard operating procedure (SOP) course for staff around the club.

By Gilbert Wong

The course was conducted by Operations Supervisor Raja Ismail, and staff at the swimming pool, gymnasium, golf office and Tee Top were in attendance to get a refresher on the necessary steps to be taken in case of emergencies.

Throughout the course, staff were taught what to look out for in an emergency situation and learned various first aid skills. These included basic bandaging techniques for

different types of injuries, as well as performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and using an automated external defibrillator (AED).

Since the emergency SOP course was first introduced in 2014, staff have benefitted from these sessions which are not only educational and informative but practical as well. From learning about how to perform the Heimlich

manoeuvre on a choking diner, to treating a head injury sustained while working out in the gym, real and plausible scenarios were enacted, and knowing how to be a first responder to these incidents is an invaluable skill.

We are sure that with Mr Ismail’s guidance, our staff will now be better prepared in the event of an emergency situation.

Operations Supervisor Raja Ismail looks on as one of our swimming pool staff goes through the correct procedures when performing CPR and using an AED.

Keppel Juniors among podium finishers in NSRCC Junior Open By Kuk Hun Yi, Green Committee member

This year’s Junior Open which was held between May 30 and June 1 and was an open stroke play event where 28 boys and 13 girls signed up, with Andre Chong, Justin Kuk, Jason Kuk and Sean Lee representing the boys’ division while Angelica Wu representing the girls’ division.

Although it was originally planned to be an exciting out-of-the-box team match play format, unexpected challenges had required a change to the more conventional stroke play format.

The Junior Open was held at the NSRCC Kranji course, and as a Gary Player-designed course, it provided a stern test of golf to the participants. The difficulty of the course was compounded by heavy rain on the first day which delayed the start of play and caused the course fairways on subsequent days to be soggy in places. The challenging conditions also led to a higher emphasis on good ball striking and crisp chipping.

In the first day of competition, development squad player Ryan Wong from NSRCC threw down the gauntlet by shooting a four-under par 68 to separate himself from the rest of the field. This feat was made more remarkable by the tough conditions caused by the bad weather.

Keppel Juniors and developmental squad players Andre Chong and Justin Kuk were placed third and fourth in the boys’ divisions after returning with an even par and four-over round respectively.

Keppel Juniors Andre Chong and Jason Kuk were among the podium finishers in the NSRCC Junior Open 2017 by coming in runners-up in the Boys’ Best Gross and the Boys’ Best Nett divisions respectively.

Other Juniors like Jason Kuk and Sean Lee returned with scores of 80 and 82 respectively, placing themselves in the ninth and tenth position with Justin withdrawing due to illness.

On day two, Ryan continued to lead by returning an even par round, giving him a combined two-day score of 140 and an eight-stroke lead over his nearest competitors. Jason returned with a two-over 74, Andre with a four-over 76 and Sean with a six-over 78, resulting in Andre lying joint second (148), with Jason in fifth (154) and Sean in seventh (160).

On the final day, Ryan, Andre and Louis Tee from Seletar were matched up in the championship flight. Despite the large margin separating Ryan from the others, Andre navigated the first four holes of NSRCC’s front nine on even par. Though he put himself in good positions, the holes did not seem to cooperate as he made the turn with only one birdie on hole 7 giving him a one-under from the front nine (35). Ryan was not coming back to the field by mixing birdies with bogies and making the front nine turn at one-over (37).

Andre continued to play well until he got to the par-4 of hole 12 where an approach shot from the rough landed short which led to a double bogie, effectively ending Andre’s challenge for the title. Nevertheless, Andre continued to play steadily by parring the remaining holes until he reached hole 18 where he calmly sank a 25-

foot eagle putt, giving him an overall final day one-under round of 71, and a three-day cumulative three-over score of 219, securing the best gross runner-up position.

Jason returned with a third day three-over score of 75 leaving him with a cumulative 13-over score of 229, placing him in fifth for Best Gross. Sean closed with a three-day cumulative 24-over score of 240 placing him in seventh position for Best Gross.

In the girls’ competition, Keppel’s Angelica Wu closed with a three-day cumulative 32-over score of 248 putting her in eighth. The event was won by Anne Fernandez with a three-day cumulative five-over score of 221.

In the Boys Best Nett category, the winner was Nicholas Jordan Sea (handicap 14) with a score of 207 and the runner-up was Jason Kuk (handicap 3) with a score of 220.

In addition, there was a special hole-in-one award given to Phone Thant Ko Ko who scored it during the practice round the previous week.

The event ended with a sumptuous lunch where the prize awards ceremony was also held. Awards were presented by NSRCC Green Committee members as well as Chief Referee for the event, Mr Brian Tan. Thank you NSRCC for holding such an enjoyable event this year and we are all looking forward to an even greater event next year.

Since it went live on May 8, our new Keppel website has been steadily raking in the numbers. We have seen more than 42,662 page views so far, with our visitors spending an average of one minute and eight seconds on each page. Interestingly, more than 51.5 percent of visitors access the website via mobile, which is in tune with our digital goals to optimise the site to meet these needs.

The new website in numbers By Ashikin Hashim

More than 25.5 percent of our visitors spend the most time on our landing or “home” page, exploring the interactive slider images. Meanwhile, around eight percent of visitors are regular users of the members’ log-in feature, which enables them to make golf and facility bookings. Approximately six percent of visitors also log into the portal to access the golf balloting results.

MILLENNIALS KEY TARGET GROUP

More than 26.7 percent of our visitors are also between the age range of 25 and 34, the millennial generation, who also make up the main target group of major corporations today. This digital-savvy and social media-inspired generation also inspires the new look of the website, which also paves the way for a promising future of the Club. 21.3 percent of our visitors are between the ages of 35 and 44 while the rest are above 55 years of age.

A trend that we have also noticed is that our visitors are from the travel, hotels and accommodation sector of the market, many of whom are interested in playing golf in our lush course. Business travellers and individuals from the finance industry follow closely behind, which correlates to the queries

Keppel Junior Tommy Lamb won the Boys “B” title while Shannon Tan emerged runner-up in the Girls’ “B” division at the recently concluded Singapore Junior Golf Championship 2017 (SJGC) held at the Seletar Country Club from June 5 to 8, 2017.

Keppel Juniors light up Singapore Junior Golf Championship By Kuk Hun Yi, Green Committee member

SJGC is organised into competitions for both Boys’ and Girls’ “A” and “B” divisions, as well as a team competition comprising a boy-girl pair from a participating nation.

This year’s SJGC saw the participation of 102 young golfers from 16 countries. Previously, SJGC had been held at Keppel Club for around a decade before it moved to Seletar CC.

Competitors remarked about the challenging contours of the 10.5 stimpmeter Seletar greens throughout the competition which made it very difficult for them to find the right lines to hole their putts. Foreign competitors also remarked on the scorching conditions and the up-and-down nature of Seletar fairways (which made me wonder what the same competitors would say if they were playing this competition on the “commando” course at Keppel!).

The huge Seletar greens were so challenging due to the subtle slopes that caused competitors to often misjudge the lines which led to even the leaders not being able to take their short putts for granted.

AN INSPIRATION

In the Boys “A” competition held on day one of the competition, Australia’s only competitor Jediah Morgan (ranked number three among Australian juniors) shot a three-under 69 in all three days of the competition to set the bar high for the rest of the field. The Queenslander delivered a clinic in shot-making by regularly thumping his 3-wood drives 250m (which went up to 280m on the four times he used his driver over the competition) and splitting the fairways.

In the Girls “B” competition, Keppel’s Shannon Tan recorded what would be the lowest score among any Singaporean girl in the tournament on any of the three days by shooting an even par 72 on the first day. Shannon was able to safely navigate Seletar’s challenging greens by exchanging two birdies with two bogies on her second nine (Seletar’s first nine). Shannon also won the first day’s Daily Best Gross for this achievement and came in runner-up in the Girls “B” division with a three-day cumulative score of 231 (72, 81, 78).

In the Boys “B” division, Keppel’s Tommy Lamb shot a four-over 76 on day one, also earning him the Daily Best Gross. Tommy also won the Boys “B” division by scoring a three-day cumulative score of 237 (76, 80, 81) which was three strokes better than his nearest competitor, Yu Ka Jun of Hong Kong.

SGA Vice-President (and Keppel Club Captain) C.S. Kong made a speech at the closing ceremony, saying that “the Singapore Junior Golf Championship was launched in 1975 and is among the most established tournaments in the region. We’re delighted that this year we had 14 countries represented and more than 100 players taking part in it.”

For our Juniors who have the single-minded determination of a Jediah, Shannon or Tommy to pursue success in international competitions, they will need encouragement and support from our club and country in the form of a supportive golfing eco-system that nurtures golfing talent.

Hopefully, Singapore will find the right formula to pave the way for our Juniors to be world beaters in the not too distant future.

On Saturday and Sunday, June 17 and 18, the club tennis courts at Keppel Club were filled with young tennis enthusiasts from SICC, Tanglin Club and Keppel Club. There were a total of about 30 children over the two days and each player had to play two singles and two doubles matches.

By Ashok Kumar, Assistant Manager, Sports

Junior Triangular Tennis Friendly 2017

Keppel’s tennis juniors show fighting spirit

The Under 10 players from the three clubs.

On the first day, the matches were for Under 12s where SICC finished tops with 48 points, followed by Keppel Club with 31 points and Tanglin Club with 23 points. On the second day, the matches were for the Under 10s and SICC again finished above the rest in this age group category with 25 points followed by Keppel Club with 18 points and Tanglin Club with 10 points.

Inside the courts, competitiveness and sportsmanship were evident even though they were just children, with the youngsters showcasing their tennis prowess with all their might. However, the playfulness and friendship among them came out naturally outside the courts when they were not playing.

We hope to see more of such junior friendlies in the near future.

The Club recently welcomed new staff to our close-knit family. Let’s find out what Ms Grace Jevitha Rajan (Senior Accounts Assistant), Mr Taufiq Sa’ad (Sports and Gym Supervisor) and Mr Victor Yi (F&B Manager) have to say!

Meet our new faces By Ashikin Hashim

Share with us your work experiences before joining Keppel:

Ms Grace: “Before joining Keppel Club, I was actually working with ibis Styles hotel in MacPherson, where I served as a general cashier (income audit) under the finance department. But previously, I worked with quite a number of organisations in finance as well.”

Mr Taufiq: “Before working at Keppel Club, I was a tennis coach for seven years and ran my own businesses as a sideline. Basically I (was) my own boss, so I didn’t really have fixed working hours. For example, I worked between three to five hours each day.”

Mr Yi: “I have been in the F&B industry for 28 years, and worked in the hotel line. I have travelled extensively for my job, and also worked in Vietnam previously, and it was a great experience.”

What is a typical day of work like for you?

Ms Grace: “Well, for an accounts person, it’s mostly about debit and credit, and not forgetting (handling) the closure of accounts for the month. But as an accounts

person, my typical day of work is mostly very administrative compared to the month-end period, as that is where the real accounting duties kick in.”

Mr Taufiq: “On a typical day, I carry out management tasks of running the Keppel gym, as well as overseeing the staff from the swimming pool. Throughout the day, I complete various administrative duties as well, including answering phones, drafting documents and emails, filing and greeting customers. I also provide strong customer service and resolve members’ issues at the gym.”

Mr Yi: “I spend most of my time at Tee Top, and make sure that the golfers’ terrace is run up to requirements. I also engage with members and guests to find out their feedback about our food, and to ensure all their needs are being met.”

What do you enjoy about your job at Keppel Club so far?

Ms Grace: “I would say that Keppel is a really great place to work in because of the environmentally-friendly environment, wonderful colleagues

Our new Sports and Gym Supervisor, Mr Taufiq Sa’ad is ready to help members with all their queries at the gym.

Ms Grace Jevitha Rajan, our new Senior Accounts Assistant, is enjoying her time at Keppel.

Mr Victor Yi brings with him a vast amount of experience as our new F&B Manager.

and pleasant members. Compared to my previous working places, Keppel Club is a really different place to work at.”

Mr Taufiq: “Working at Keppel Club is a great new experience for me, as I learned how to handle problems and challenges every day at work. Furthermore, the members here are very friendly and my new colleagues are fun to work with!”

Mr Yi: “I enjoy interacting with members and working with my new colleagues – they are very helpful and I look forward to work every day!”

What is your motto in life? Ms Grace: “My main motto

is to achieve even greater things in life! I actually envision myself taking up a higher position in finance, such as an executive. I want to challenge myself to reach a higher level, have a broad understanding of things and also learn more.”

Mr Taufiq: “My motto in life is to be positive. I believe that the positive thinkers always see the invisible and achieve the impossible!”

Mr Yi: “My motto is to do your best – and to achieve the best that you can!”

In Memoriam

It is with deep sadness that Keppel Club

mourns the loss of one of our dear members,

Mr Fabian Foo. He had been a part of the

gym sub-committee since 2014 and had been a

Keppel Club member since 1989.

He was also a regular golfer who was well-liked

by all his peers and staff at the Club.

Our deepest condolences go out to his family

and loved ones, and we will always keep him

in our memories.
