National Heritage Proclamation

Good news to all Victorians! Victoria Institution will be proclaimed as a National Heritage along with 38 others nationwide. All of you are invited to attend the proclamation ceremony as follows:

Date: 14 February, 2009 (Saturday)
Time: 9.30 a.m.
Place: Victoria Institution, Kuala Lumpur

This event will be attended by the Heritage Commissioner and the Minister of Heritage, Unity, Cultural and Arts, YB Dato’ Seri Haji Mohd Shafie Bin Haji Apdal, who is also an old VI boy (batch of 1976).

While the organizers could only allocate 200 Victorians to be seated in the school hall, around 500 Victorians are expected to watch the proceedings live on close circuit TV (CCTV) at the quadrangle. Therefore, this is the perfect time to organize batch gatherings and reunions on that day. Catering is available by request.

For more details, and to get your personal official invitation, please contact Mohd Rashdan Abdul Rashid (VIOBA Asst Hon Secretary) at 012-2055 296 or 013-294 5096.


On 1st February 2009, The Star newspaper will be featuring a two-page pull-out on historical Malaysian schools, including the Victoria Institution.”
