Description
Consider this Letter to come to you from Lundu in spirit. True, I am writing it in Kuala Lumpur, but it was conceived and gestated in Lundu. The past year has seen many dramatic turns of fortune, both for Sarawak, for our own kampong, and for me personally. The several strands of events crossed and knotted in surprising ways. Let me get myself out of the way quickly. In February '09 I visited the U.S. to seek a job, fully intending to take one up if successful. Four weeks into my task I had a call from the English Department of Universiti Malaya. Would I like to come back to teach, this time as associate professor? This was the proverbial offer I couldn't refuse: a sure promise of employment among old friends, and where I would be near my family, l flew back to Malaysia in June.
