By any chance would you have and would...Hello Anon,<br />By any chance would you have and would like to share some of your dad's old pictures taken at Castrol? I am sure many of the readers here would love to remember scenes of the place.<br />Reading the previous comment from Ghazali Ismail above, I guess his father was your company driver. Hopefully Ghazali will respond and you can make contact again but it's already been posted since 2013. Keep your fingers crossed.James Tannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13543278061861378044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291749928176751452.post-6034754834679365622020-01-11T22:22:16.801+08:002020-01-11T22:22:16.801+08:00My father who is now 88 was MD at Castrol Far East...My father who is now 88 was MD at Castrol Far East 1971 to 1977 approx. We had two wonderful Drivers called Ismail and Osmond. We would love to hear from anyone who remembers us or their families who remembers their happy times at Castrol. My father was so happy to read these comments.reply tjm@dsl.pipex.com Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291749928176751452.post-34829171174667824302013-03-20T18:58:43.160+08:002013-03-20T18:58:43.160+08:00My dad used to be the personal chaffer for the MD ...My dad used to be the personal chaffer for the MD in Castrol and we lived in the staff quarters. In fact, my birth certificate was listed as c/o Castrol Quarters :) I was born there! We lived there until the relocation in 1993. I had so many fond memories growing up there, with the generous staff christmas parties, dinner & dances and having the whole factory as my playground.<br />I think there is a typo error with the Castrol photo as it cannot be in 1973 as the new offices were already built and also the Dairy Farm condo which was built I think in the mid 80s only.<br />Thanks for sharing this, I remember every hooks and corners of Castrol...<br /> Ghazali Ismailnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-291749928176751452.post-65574777731834923232013-01-23T10:24:09.741+08:002013-01-23T10:24:09.741+08:00My grandfather used to work at the factory till he...My grandfather used to work at the factory till he retired. The company was very generous with their staff. There were workers quarters there for the staff, my whole family stayed at the quarters. I wasn't even born yet till 1985. muhdfadzlysamsudin@gmail.comAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
