09/03/2002 - Residents of USJ17
held their big "Know Your Neighbour" Day at the USJ17 Community Centre
located along USJ 17/3.

of UEP Subang Jaya made full use of the opportunity to fostering closer
ties with their friends and neighbours and the Community at large, by
turning out in full force to participate in this well organised event.
Home-cooked food and drinks
were provided and the event was co-sponsored by MPSJ, Caltex Malaysia,

Cream
The children were not
disappointed either as there were games and prizes, and a clown was in
attendance to entertain them. A free flow of balloons thrilled the little
ones to no end.
The Guest of Honour was YB
Dato' Lee Hwa Beng, Adun of Subang Jaya who took time off his busy
schedule to graced the event. Being a strong advocate of Community Spirit
and neighbourliness, he was obviously pleased with the large turnout by
the residents. He made a generous contribution to the USJ17 Neighbourhood
Watch Fund as a form of encouragement.

hour event Members of Neighbourhood Watch Group from USJ16, USJ18 and
USJ23, also turned up in support of the efforts by this Neighbourhood.
As the event drew to a
close, Residents started making their way home, to rise to the occasion
again when called upon to participate in similar Neighbourhood events. The
future looks bright for Community Spirit in USJ17, keep up the good work. |
