President Datin Lynda Loh has been a member of IIJB since 2005.  Since joining, Datin has been actively participating within the committee in different portfolios and had served more than 6 Past Presidents.  This year Datin has been nominated to be the President of IIJB 2014-2015. 

Due to her previous tight working schedule, Datin Lynda has not been able to take up floral arrangement class to pursue her passion and love for ikebana flower arrangement.  However, Datin had since started her lessons last year and was dared by the committee to do a demonstration to start the program for the year!  President Datin Lynda gracefully accepted the challenge.

Owing to the support of our members, the club has made remarkable achievements throughout the years.  The Committees would like to extend our gratitude and appreciation to each and every member for your support by hosting this program FOC (on the house).

Dear members. Please seize this opportunity to be present in this program and we look forward to spending an eventful brunch with you.
