Rotary Story

ROTARY CLUB OF TAIPING was officially registered with Rotary International on 30th March 1936. The Charter of the Club was officially presented by the then District Governor His Highness Prince Purachantra of Bangkok during a official dinner held at the Hokkien Hoay Kuan (Hokkien Association) on 10th June 1936. The sponsoring Club was Rotary Club of Ipoh.

THE CHARTER MEMBERS WERE:

Sidney Bacon Palmer, Albert Ernest Wootton, Eric Ewart Gladstone, Louis John Butler Madden, Dr Saw Ah Choy, George Theodore Dawes, Robert Alan Stubington, Alfred William Frisby, Toh Eng Hoe, Kenneth Bruce Eyre, Wan Ahmad Rashdi, Mc Gabey, Joseph William Ridley, Kehr Singh, Kenneth Ray Blackwell, S.K.M. Kotval, Mark Sylvester, Major Herbert Teesdale Graig, Dr Tan Cheng Leng, Alexander Keir, S T A V Saminathan Chettiar and Dr I Mohamed Ghows

The Club held their weekly luncheon meetings at Coronation Cafe in Kota Road. However, this Club, like any other club in the Japanese occupied territories, had to cease functioning from December 1941 until its revival on 14 March 1953.
