IPOH,Perak- The book entitled "Ipoh, My Home Town" was launched today by Tun.Dr.Lim Keng Yaik at the Royal Ipoh Club.

It is edited, compiled, and sponsored by Commander Ian Anderson, and expatriate who has lived in Ipoh since 1999 and published by Media MasterSdn Bhd.
The book contains 64stories with a unique perspective from the lives of the youngsters of Ipoh from many different generations over the past 90years. Lat who wrote a foreword and provided his own story, with his famous cartoons of course!, called it, "A wonderful addition to what booksellers described as Malaysiana".
