Its a little known fact that my formative teenage years were spent as a "VI Boy". Why is it a little known fact? Simply because i'm hardly your atypical "VI Boy".
Victoria Institution is a grand old school in the tradition of Malaysia's colonial history. A school of elites (at least in theory) for more than 100 years, its been around for a while and survives with the reputation such longevity bestows. The VI Boy is supposed to be "A scholar, a gentleman and a sportsman". I was very little of each back then - the class loner, the object of bullies, the quiet boy that played chess. That was me.
And though i don't have many fond memories of the place, i find myself offering my services to its Old Boys Association for FREE. They need a website, something better than what they currently possess. I have offered to build one for them, with a host of advance features that other developers would charge thousands to provide. I'm really a sucker for punishment.
Please take a look at the demo site i've created for them. Feedback is welcome.
