A Malaysian Grandfather Story
Born into a family of an immigrant father from Minangkabau Sumatera, Md Tahir grew up in Kampung Tok Paduka, Perlis in the fifties. He attended the then elite school Malay College Kuala Kangsar before doing medicine in the University of Malaya.
This book is a classic Malaysian grandfather story as it reminisces the author's personal anecdotes and life experiences as a kampung boy who grew up to travel and meet people of many colours and from different corners of the world. While you meander through the nostalgia of the early days, meeting rulers, presidents, scholars, prominent teachers, great friends and lay individuals who had helped made Tahir a wise and successful man he is today, you will surely be inspired and might want to write your own book!
