ESMARGUE CAMARADERIE CLASS OF 85 GATHERING
KUALA KANGSAR
10-12 November 2018
Some 70-odd members of the graduating Class of 1985 (Esmargue Camaraderie) made their way back to their
beloved alma mater last weekend to commemorate their 50th life anniversary. Reflecting on the 5 formative
years spent in the estemeed institution that was instrumental in shaping the innocent 12-year old boys they
once were into the successful men they now are, they could not help but feel privileged to be among the lucky
few chosen from all over the country to be Malay Collegians.
While being a student of the Malay College does not necessarily make one greater than others the age-old
traditions and the pedigree of the institution that was established way back in 1905 instills in one's bosom a
deep sense of pride both in our beloved school and brothers. The brotherhood built upon the loving bond
formed during those 5 years remains unbroken and that’s another aspect that makes the Budak Koleq so unique.

TEAM KOLEQ RUNNERS
LARIAN HARI KEPUTERAAN SULTAN NAZRIN SHAH 2018
11 November 2018
Kuala Kangsar
This year's edition of the "Larian Hari Keputeraan
Sultan Nazrin Shah 2018" was held on 11
November 2018 and was graced by the presence
of HRH Sultan Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah. The run
this year saw a record number of almost 80
MCOBs as participants. One of the reasons for
that was the reunion of Class of 85, in Kuala
Kangsar, who coincidentally "celebrated" their
50th birthday. The participation of C’85 MCOBs
brought the unintended but welcome feel of a
mini Old Boys' Weekend.
The run was divided into three categories; the
7km, 10km and 15km runs which brought
participants through various environs including
paddy fields, kampung trails, the ever familiar
town of Kuala Kangsar and the picturesque Perak
River. Excitement levels were understandably
high for all budak-budak koleq as the starting and
ending points for the run was none other than
their home away from home, MCKK.
