<strong>TRIBUTE</strong> TO TUNKU <strong>ABDUL</strong> RAHMAN<br />

movement. He is now in happy retirement proud in the knowledge<br />

that he had done a good job in the cause of education.<br />

Those were the great days, the good old days though I used to<br />

dread the lessons and the sternness and strictness by which they<br />

were applied.<br />

I live today to remember with gratitude the good that they<br />

have done to me.<br />

I believe however when any of the old boys of the school give<br />

lectures they must have said the same thing as T say now—those<br />

days were the good old days—and I am almost certain that those of<br />

you who are on the benches today will return here one day when<br />

you have become famous to tell the boys of the future that your<br />

school days were too the great days.<br />

Let me assure you that while there is this feeling from among<br />

the past boys about their school days then the country is safe.<br />

It means that the products of the schools are disciplined to<br />

guide the ship of State and the State will be in safe hands. When<br />

the boys start to violate the sanctity of the school by misusing it,<br />

then God help the country.<br />
