On 4 March 2001,
FGBMF brothers gathered at the Crystal Ballroom, Ming Court
Vista Hotel, KL to celebrate 21 years of FGBMF ministry in
Malaysia. It was a night of celebration to recognise and honour
those men who have over the period contributed to the
development and growth of the ministry. It also reconfirmed the
FGBMF Vision and Mission and reaffirmed to the Christian
community that FGBMF is still in the business of saving men and
to launch into the next era with renewed strength, confidence
and purpose.
A total of 590 members, guests
and their spouses attended the function. Brother Lee Gee Koon
chaired the celebration proceedings, Bro Ang Chui Cheng led the
worship, which was followed by a welcome speech from Dr Peter
Tong.

edification were most of the founder members, members and
special guests who included YB Dr. Ron Tan, Dr. Koh Eng Kiat,
Rev. Thomas Phillips, Rev. P. Teveraji, Rev. Dr Henry Ramaya and
Rev. Wong Kim Kong.
Among the guests were luminaries from
the evangelical circle including Rev. Oh Beng Khee from Singapore who
kept the guests in stitches with his Hokkien Happy Men songs and
jokes. The evening’s programme took FGBMF members down memory lane
with Bro. Ang Chu Lai, Dr. Joy Seevaratnam, Bro. Liau Eng Siong and
Bro. Khong Kim Kong who shared with inspirational and often humourous
recollections on the early days of FGBMF Malaysia.The programme also

Asia Director Bro. Hugo Chan from Hong Kong and the presentation of
