Eastward: The Association Newsletter
The newsletter 'Eastward' was issued two or three times a year: usually April (Easter issue),
August (Summer issue) and December (Christmas issue).
Paid-up members received the newsletters by email (as PDFs) or by post,
according to preference. The email version was in colour; the printed version
was black and white, except for the final issue, to save on print costs.
The aim of the newsletter was to help connect members by informing of general association news and information, such as the joining of new members, deceased members, and details of events such as the annual reunion and Remembrance Day Parade at the Cenotaph.
In addition to general matters, the newsletter included members' stories of their time in Malaya/Malaysia, also articles of (historical) interest related to Malaya/Malaysia.
These interesting articles may well also have included stories of other places in the Far East and Indian Ocean that might be of interest to members.
Items for possible addition to the archives are welcomed by the webmaster.
