"Do note that there is absolutely no strings attached to this goodwill, and I am simply happy and proud to see our local-born athletes achieve success at any level! I hope she will continue to strive for excellence! " saId Mr Bay.

SRA is proud to learn that there are kind souls in Singapore, with the likes of Mr Hansen Bay, who met with Saiyidah Aisyah Md Rafa'ee and also some of the SRA Exco Members over lunch.

The purpose of the meet up was because Mr Bay had expressed his interest in making some monetary contribution as a token towards Aisyah's successful campaign at the recent SEA Games in Myanmar. Mr Bay explained that the interest came after he learned the sacrifices and the tough journey that Aisyah had to go through prior to her glory moments.

Views, plans and programs were exchanged and SRA hopes to work hand in hand with Mr Bay's company, Activo, a PE and Sports Equipment Company, to promote rowing to the community with the  short term target of growing a new fresh squad for the 2015 SEA Games and growing the popularity of rowing as a whole long term.

Once again, SRA would like to thank
Mr Hansen Bay for his generous contributions.
