PCM YEARS

Ten years in PCM , from 1973 to 1983, was a long time in fact. Somewhere in late 1981, I was transferred from the QC department to Production department. That was the critical years for PCM, the Middle East War affected the canned pineapple market greatly and the rising costs of the two main ingredients in canning, tin and sugar caused PCM to operate in negative profits! I thrown in my very best to enhance on the quality while reducing the production cost . One of the measures I took was to use the minimum number of boilers .running during lunch and friday prayers. I still remembered that was also the year I became involved actively in Hokken Association in my home town in Pontian . I was the youth wing secretary and subsequently the State Liason Committee Secretary. The Hokkien Leaders in Klang wanted to form the very first Koperasi finance in Pontian. I became very involved in the Koperasi membership drive. I resigned from PCM in 1983 to become the Hocklian finance branch Manager in Pontian.
That leads to my next part of story, the Koperasi finance years in Pontian........
