Nobel as a tourist destination.
Nobel is currently a closed and controlled environment. It should not continue to be this way.
We need to make it a tourist destination. We also need to make it interesting for current students to see.
The history of Nobel in all shapes and form cannot be destroyed. Memorabila, such as old exam timetables and so on must be kept in order to honor the past traditions of the school. This include the Student Council Election; a meeting many people do not know of.
Nobel events must be opened to the public, especially us alumni. If Saudi Arabia can open its doors to tourism and even to the Holy City of Mecca, Nobel can, as well.
Agree with you.
Tourism potential actually started with me and Caleb Chuang as the initiators.
We can't do it for the whole of Nobel, so the best way is to do it for Bullseye.
Dubai said, "Build it and they'll come." Making the city famous with Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah or a ski resort in Dubai was the only way to make Dubai famous for tourists in order to find a way to make money to replace oil revenue.
And for Bullseye, the only way to make Bullseye famous is to win many times. Hence, what we have applied to Bullseye can be applied to Nobel.
We can make a series of records like getting into the Malaysian Book of Records. But there must be will and commitment.
However, Ms Bee Yong had said before that Nobel has no ambition to be an elite school. Mr Aram told me this via FB. He criticized the initiatives and defamed me on FB and said that my actions can only destroy Bullseye. He called my actions and attitude a narcissist. However, he was lectured sternly by Mr Gallagher.
But from the attitude of the management, they are clamping down on Bullseye and making Nobel as inferior as opposed to other international schools.
Nobel is a different form of international schools. Other international schools like Tenby, Taylor's International, International School @ Parkcity, have a majority foreign teachers. The touch of Nobel is that many of the teachers are locals.
They have a similar standard as each other. They label as Primary and Secondary. And their Sports Day do not involve the same hoo-hah as Nobel.
Chee Fooi Foon and Kuan Muk Lang's school, SJKC Shin Cheng Harcroft, will have Sports Day on May 24. Let's see if their red team can win. This will be a good test for Kuan Muk Lang.
Next year, I forecast Harcroft and Nobel will hold back-to-back sports days.
Nobel's 2026 Sports Day, according to my predictions, is 10th April 2026. Harcroft will hold the Sports Day the following day on 11th April. Should Bullseye win both events, it will be a grand celebration to behold.
