Kota Kinabalu: A packed crowd of former King Scouts, scout leaders and scouts from all parts of Sabah were among 150 who showed up for ‘BP SPIRIT Gathering Dinner at the Hakka Hall, Likas, Friday night.
“The gathering is a showcase on the solidarity and brotherhood of former scouts on all ranks and from all walks of life,” noted Agung (King) Scout and former Deputy President of Sabah Scout Council and lawyer, Datuk Daniel Tan Jui Peng.
A video on Sabah Scouting History screened suggests the leadership impacts of the scouting movement dating back 1913, as former Chief Ministers Tan Sri Pairin Joseph Kitingan, Datuk Seri Panglima Yong Teck Lee were both scouts while Tan Sri Chong kah Kiat was King Scout.
