EDITOR FROMTHE
PRESIDENT FROMTHE
C ool, crisp breeze, the smell of trees and leaves, pumpkin sightings, back to school - fall is in full swing. From the hustle and bustle of summer, we’re ready to slow down and enjoy what the season has to offer. Looking forward to many festivities this quarter starting off with Singapore National Day, followed by the Club’s 74th Birthday Bash, Oktoberfest, Canadian and American Thanksgiving, Halloween and Deepavali. It’s a time marked with tasty food, good drinks, traditions and celebrations.
Dear Members,
Second, as mentioned, our Redevelopment Project was completed by 2020. However, given our “survival mode” with COVID-19, no official building dedication was ever held. U.S. Ambassador Kaplan has recognized this and has agreed to officiate at our building dedication in September. We’ll check that box soon! Third, our internal systems, including our website, have been operating at an “end-of- life” mode. With that said, we are excited to have launched our brand-newClubwebsite and hope that you’ll enjoy exploring the site as much as I did. More technological enhancements such as the new Member Portal and point-of-sale system are in the works, and will be coming your way soon. Lastly, COVID-19 restrictions permitting, planning will continue for many “big tent” events including our annual Volunteer Appreciation, the Club’s Annual Birthday Bash, Canadian & American Thanksgiving, Hanukkah, Christmas, New Year’s Eve, Lunar New Year’s and Super Bowl. Look out for these event dates to be announced soon. The Club's Fall and Winter events have always been our family's favorites and very meaningful. We'll make special arrangements to be in Singapore and we hope that you'll join us for a glass of wine or holiday eggnog at the celebrations, and sing along to a carol or two in the Lobby.
Pumpkin Chocolate Tart. The decadent Butterscotch Coffee Creamer will sure amp up the calories but sure to warm your tummy and heart.
For many Members in Singapore and those who are traveling, summer is winding down and we’re looking ahead. REFLECTIONS Over the last few years, the Club has experienced change. A massive Redevelopment Project was implemented lasting several years. It involved the construction of a new Scotts Road building and remodelling every touch point in our Claymore Hill building. Though the project was completed by 2020, global volatility was a challenge as we were hit with a global pandemic, natural disasters and geopolitical uncertainties. We still mourn those who were unexpectedly taken from us. The world, Singapore and the Club, are still coping with COVID-19 surges, supply chain disruptions, unrelenting inflation and effects of a faraway war. The Club has navigated successfully all of these challenges and can look back with confidence and pride. One key measurement of our resilience is our membership, whichhas grown toover 3,500 compared to 3,300 during the same period last year, despite all of the challenges. OPTIMISM What can we look forward to? Many things, and with optimism! First, our co-leads of the Strategic Planning Committee, Mathew and Nasir, will join me no later than September when we share our Vision 2030 at our GC Meet and Greet with Members.
74th Birthday Bash Logo
It’s time to party like a rockstar as the Club turns 74 this September. Two years after the refurbishment, let’s raise our glasses for a building dedication on September 16. Join Eli, the Club’s mascot, as he leads the celebration with a series of events for the whole family. From delectable food and drinks to a rock concert, get ready to let your hair down and party like the rockstar that you are. Fall is my favorite season. It’s a time of transition, a shift in gears f rom hectic to unhurried, f rom active to leisurely, f rom distracted to focused. And it’s just the perfect time for introspection, to take stock of the months passed and make plans to make the year a memorable one.
Taste of Singapore Brunch at Tradewinds
Whether you’re a Singapore newbie or almost-a-local, the National Day buffets are not to be missed! Tradewinds celebrates the best of hawker fare and The 2nd Floor celebrates local flavors with a modern twist. For celebrations at home, TAC2Go! has plenty to offer, and only one call away.

PARTY LIKE
at the CClub’s ROCKSTAR
An artist, scholar and collector, Allison captured the world’s imagination with her contemporary take on traditional shan shui (landscape) painting, using the media of ink and color on paper. A stylish Chinese painting that dates back to the 6th century, shan shui is famous for employing a different perspective. Instead of being art for the eyes, shan shui is an object for the mind to ponder. Alienation, was a deconstructed structure that Allison developed since 2019 to explore the boundary of the abstract expression. Her creations are rich in colors. Black was often applied for example – a color that symbolizes elegance and power. Collectors from all over the world including Southeast Asia, China, Europe, Canada and USA, have acquired her art. Allison has authored numerous publications on her research on Asian art masters such as Lim Hak Tai, Chen Wen His, Cheong Soo Pieng, Liu Kuo-Sung and Yeo Hoe Koon. She is also a distinguished speaker at various universities, banks and government bodies in Singapore and China. Allison is currently pursuing her Ph.D. in Aesthetics at Renmin University of China.

New Beginnings and a Happy Reunion
A Present from the Past
months. Helmed initially by a US Army Major, Captain Lon Getlin who served as Commander of the facility, it was the first US military base to provide a safe haven for Vietnamese evacuees in Operation New Arrivals. The mission saw over 50,000 refugees transported to the base in the largest humanitarian airlift in history. Barely a few weeks into her stay at the camp, Kim was robbed of her belongings, leaving her even more destitute than before. However, Kim’s spirit of resolve would not be broken. Being the resourceful young girl that she was, she sought help from a camp leader who brought her to Captain Getlin, who compassionately took her under his wing and brought her to a bank to open a safe deposit box to keep her valuables. It was the same fatherly friendship between she and the Army Major that Kim became an interpreter to him. She translated Vietnamese to French as he carried out his official duties. At the time, Kim did not speak a word of English. Kim’s first 4th of July was in Camp Pendleton, a profoundly bittersweet experience for her and her fellow refugees; they were celebrating their freedom from the terrors of war, but in a foreign land so far from home, with so much uncertainty ahead. It was during this emotional festivitivity that Kim recalls seeing the American flag, unfurled in all its glory and flapping valiantly in the wind, as if it were keeping watch over the camp and its inhabitants. A symbol of safety and enduring hope, the flag became synonymous with a fresh start in the United States. Settling into Camp Pendleton
Earning Her Stars and Stripes Kim Eng Club Member Kim Eng shares her story about her awe-inspiring journey through life; from war refugee to grateful American.
On July 23, 1989, Kim’s wedding day, that impact was further compounded when Kim received a wedding gift from Captain Getlin, with whom she had lost contact for 15 years. It was the very flag that had flown over Camp Pendleton and captivated Kim when she was just a child; one that had now taken on the symbolism of love, reconnection, and family - in addition to safety and hope.
Kim’s foray into the realm of her new life began in September 1975 when she was taken in by the Schellerups, the loving family of a war cameraman turned Hollywood film director, who would foster her through the years ahead. Not long after in November, Camp Pendleton closed its doors as a refugee centre, the flag she had admired on the 4th of July lowered for the last time, signalling the end of a chapter in Kim’s life. Keen to assimilate into American society, Kimenrolled inHollywood High, where she became fluent in English. All this while, she hadn’t forgotten her real family and was doing her utmost to search for their whereabouts.
To Kim Eng, Landy’s wife of over three decades, the flag stands for so much more - a bastion and testament to her awe-inspiring journey through life; from war refugee to grateful American.
Escaping the Vietnam War
Born Kim-Oanh Bui, Kim grew up in Vietnam during the turbulent years of the Vietnam War. Just before the Fall of Saigon on April 30, 1975, young Kim joined thousands of other refugees fleeing from their homeland via flights to the Philippines, Guam, and finally, the United States of America. She made the daunting trip alone, without her parents or any other family member to care for her.

After four years, she had finally tracked down her birth mother and the rest of her family. The reunion took place on Thanksgiving Day of 1979, an occasion very much befitting of the momentous event. With her house in order and inspired by the impact of Captain Getlin’s kindness on her life, Kim then went on to volunteer at numerous other refugee camps in California and across the United States.
The donated American flag is now proudly displayed at Basement 2, near the Union Bar entrance.

Since then, the flag has remained a prized possession in the Eng’s home for 33 years until it was donated to the Club on July 4, 2022. Its display will be graced by Captain Getlin, who has arranged to fly to Singaporenext year to visit Kim and Landy in a homecoming of sorts. And as Kim’s journey comes full circle, we see more clearly than ever how Kim - in her fortitude, resilience, generosity, and determination to thrive - has become the consummate embodiment of the values espoused by the American flag.
When Landy Eng, President of The American Club donated a frayed American flag to the Club during its 4th of July celebrations, it wasn’t just a gesture of goodwill or largesse; nobody could have anticipated the heartwarming story around it. Since the beginning of time, mankind has used symbols and signs to convey ideas and messages in a way that would be as universally understood as possible. When no written language was available, it was
graphical of items, actions, and events that transmitted information and knowledge to others. Take for instance, the American flag. Its symbolism depicts the original 13 colonies and 50 states of the Union, as well as the attributes of hardiness, valor, purity, justice and perseverance. To most people, especially Americans, the flag is also a motif of freedom, hope, strength, opportunity, and democracy. representations
