A Familiar Face In The Petpositive Committee

PETPOSITIVE IS PLEASED to announce a new face in our Executive Committee.

Fasidah Sabeh, 51, was unanimously appointed as a Committee Member at our Petpositive meeting yesterday.

It was held at the Parkinson's Club in Old Klang Road, Kuala Lumpur.

Idah, as we fondly know her, replaces Dr Malinee Thambyayah, a paediatric neurologist, who resigned in July owing to personal family commitments.

Idah, who was born in a Negeri Sembilan village, not far from the Royal Town of Sri Menanti is a housewife and mother of three grown up children.

She is also a superb cook and baker.

Apart from her normal busy schedule at home, she spends a lot of time helping the disabled and the elderly by being active in Petpositive, as well as another charitable organisation called the Support Group Society for the Blind of Malaysia or Supporteam.

Her husband is originally from England, but has lived and worked in Malaysia for over 31 years.

So, on behalf of the rest of our Petpositive team, let me say, "Welcome Idah to the Petpositive family!"

For more information on what transpired at our Petpositive committee meeting yesterday, be sure to keep it right here.
