A 3G handphone so that we can keep in touch and see each other when we are talking through the phone.

That's a good idea! Your teacher will feel happy to have such a generous student who still likes to have communication and keep contact with him.

During the"School Days" my classmates and I always visited our teachers.We enjoyed be together! But when we left school, our form teacher "still young" to be retired so we didin't give any special gifts for them!(Those days as a student,we had limited pocket money. We didn't have excess "income" so.....But I can still remember I sent my marriage photo to my primary form teacher as a souvenir.Now I don't know whether my previous teachers recent address and I am not sure where they are?It's over 30 years!If I can meet my form teachers or my primary headmistress I have to say thousands of THANKS because her sincere teaching I learn how to be a "good deed" teacher and try to teach my pupils do well both in knowldge as well as own personality.I will respect them as my own senior family give them "happiness" and blessings as the gifts!

Yeah the retired teacher needs a computer badly so that he can join mylot straight away after retirement. Better still if you can subsidies a small amount for his internet bill:)LOL. Thanks for your response.

sure, that's not a problem :) Provided i am rich enough LOL. The internet charge by our sub-government is still very high (in my opinion). They should lower the fee down, to encourage the people to be more internet literate.

Hello dear lkbooi. Here I am to start my tropical journey for sleeping princess, which is the first station I have been to from today. Smiling. Ok, let's come to the point. In fact, I have not really thought about it, but since the question is raised here, I would make my mind work out what could be a better gift to my beloved former teacher. Firstly, I have to know something that she is fond of and is interested in from her daily life and also from her friends and colleagues next to her, who know more about her hobby, which I think is very important for me to make a good choice so far as a nice gift is concerned. Secondly, this special gift is supposed to be something that would always arouse her memory of us, who used to be her students or colleagues. Thirdly, a nice farewell party or dinner will be arranged for her and many photos will be taken at the party or dinner as a future memory of the meaningful dinner. In conclusion, an investigation is needed to be made before a wonderful gift is bought for my beloved teacher or colleague. Thanks and good night.

Hi jisir, hoping you enjoy the tropical journey. You had really done a heroic deed. I am very happy to see one of my old discussions being activated. I appreciate your full consideration from various aspects regarding the appropriate gift for a retired teacher. Yeah, dear friend, for an ideal gift it concerns much on the receiver’s interest, the memorable value and its significance. It is a good idea to have a farewell dinner where we could catch hold of those memorable images, otherwise would vanish forever. Hi dear, once again, I feel delighted to see you response for my old discussion here. Your thoughtful ideas could always be the essential guidelines for consideration when choosing any ideal gift.
