Applause thundered through the newly completed Arena Wira as Mr Long dedicated his favourite song- The Moon Represents My Heart, to all his beloved students.
A word from the Head Prefect for Afternoon Session 2007
For the past 2 decades, Mr Long has been an exemplary figure in terms of being an educationist and a leader to his peers. And for all the years that he has been serving in SMK Taman Desa, Mr Long has brought about many positive changes to the school.
When he was the academic teacher for the Moral Education and Bahasa Melayu subjects, the percentage of passes kept improving. During his stint as the basketball and volleyball teacher advisor our school became champions for the Bangsar Zone repeatedly. Mr Long was also the teacher advisor for the Red Crescent Society and the Red House.
From the years 1987-2003, Mr Long was the Head Disciplinarian as well as the Panel Head for Moral Education. During his time as the head disciplinarian, his ability to discipline students was unmatched.
The most obvious contribution of Mr Long’s was the Silver Jubilee fund raising Carnival cum Dinner last year. Mr Long as the coordinator , with the help and full support of our dedicated Parent-Teacher Association , the Carnival cum Dinner was a tremendous success which had subsequently brought about many changes to our school facilities and infra-structure, such as the metal deck roofing between blocks F and G of the school.
It is not just the physical contributions that Mr Long is responsible for, he has always been the driving force of educating the younger generation. If you ask any of his former students, they will all tell you the same thing, under all that serious and stern façade is a teacher who understands his subject matter expertly and also one who can show you the sunny side of life as well. He is indeed a great teacher, not only to his students, but to all the other teachers as well.
Mr Long, you will be missed by everyone in this school. We would like to take this opportunity to wish you well on behalf of all the afternoon session students. May your future endeavours bring you contentment and joy. Happy retirement Mr Long and God bless.
