14th Chinese New Year Charity Vegetarian Dinner

The 14th CNY Charity dinner held on 20th Feb 2010 (Saturday) at PISA,Penang was a great success. Once again LCGT had completed a major project in which total attendance was more than 2000 diners taking up 209 tables of which 100 tables was allocated to invited homes for the elders and under privileged children throughout Penang State. This is a joint project with Penang State Government of which the proceeds was share between Penang Hardcore Poor Fund and LCGT Old Folks Fund. At the end of the day, total net fund raised was RM65,738.90 and our Board has decided to give RM40,000 to Penang Hardcore Poor Fund and Balance to LCGT Old Folks Fund. Well done, Organising Chairman Lion Steven Ooi and all his committees for a perfect fund raising project in memory of our Late President Lion Anthony Lee who has carried this event in aid of Elders for the past 12 years.

In Memory of Late president Lion Anthony Lee & Supporting his CNY Charity Dinner Project.

Our Late President Lion Anthony Lee Kin On passed away peacefully on Dec 9, 2009. He has just celebrated his 50th Birthday on December 4, 1959. To all of us "He is not gone, He is just away. With a cheery smile and the wave of hand, He has wandered into an unknown land."





All our club members missed him alot especially with his witty remarks and unlimited energy. His passion for Lionism has never waver since he joined our club 12 years ago. On January 10, 2010 during the Club 46th Charter Anniversary, International Director, Hajjah Ellis Suriyati read a tribute and presented a President Award and pin posthumously to his wife, Ms Serena.


Our Club 1st Vice President Lion Oh Aik Kim took over the Club President with effect from January 2010. President Oh has great respect for Late President Anthony and he will continue the good job and outstanding projects as identified by the Late President.


One of the biggest dream for Late President Anthony was to continue the Chinese New Year Charity Dinner for Old Folks homes which he has been doing for the past 12 consecutive years.


For the 2010, the Penang State Government together with our Club are co organising the event which will be held at the following date and venue:-
