Dear Tom,
Just wanted to inform you that a bunch of us alumni got together recently in Bangkok, Thailand over the weekend of 10-11 April, 2015. Some of us hadn’t seen each other in 23 years!
It was quite an emotional meet – seeing Nick (Nickos Kabitsis ’95), Tze (Tze Loong Tan ’95), and Peri (Periclis Hadjisavvas ’94) after 20 years. I last met Debajit (Debajit Banerjee ’92) in Calcutta back in 1998. I get to see Faisal (Faisal Ahmed ’95) a bit more often as he visits Dhaka from time to time.
All in, it was me (Chotu Khan ’95) along with my wife Lori Simpson; Faisal Ahmed ’95, his wife Rebecca Konrad and their two beautiful daughters; Nickos Kabitsis ’95; Tze Loong Tan ’95; Periclis Hadjisavvas ’94; and Debajit Banerjee ’92 at the reunion. It was quite an international meet (!) considering where we all flew in:
- I along with Lori flew in from Bangladesh where we live along with our children. While I am originally from Bangladesh, Lori is in fact from Crawfordsville, IN. (My son is currently attending Earlham College in IN. Our two daughters reside with us in Dhaka.)
- Faisal, who is originally from Bangladesh, currently resides in Cambodia with his wife Rebecca who is from MN.
- Nick is originally from Greece, but is currently residing in Vietnam.
- Tze flew in from Singapore where he currently resides. He is originally from Malaysia.
- Peri flew in from Greece where he is originally from.
- Debajit Banerjee is originally from India, however currently resides in Vietnam.
It was a great feeling seeing these guys after so long. We are planning another reunion, possibly in Europe, so that few more of us can join in from the US and other places of the world. Shall keep you posted.

This is why face-to-face reunions are so critical to lasting friendships!
