   I found Beng Kooi 2nd row number 6 from the right as one look at the picture. Hope I am right. Well it is Beng kooi when I read those comments below. From the picture she still look the same. Yes Beng Kooi is one fully committed person, helpful, hardworking and friendly once one get to know her. I have the chance to meet her while volunteering at Kechara Forest Retreat. We have a friendly chat at that time.
   Oops so Su Ming is beside Beng Kooi, they are classmates. Fun as it bring back great memories by looking at old pictures.
   Thank you Rinpoche for sharing this.

   I think I found Beng Kooi, Rinpoche! hehe She is in the 2nd row from the front and the 6th person from the right! hehe. She looks the same! I have not worked with Beng Kooi before, but from what i heard from others and Rinpoche, Beng Kooi seems like a great person to work with. Hopefully i will have the good fortune to work with her one day.. =)
   Thank you for sharing, Rinpoche!

   hahah.. I found Being Kooi! She was so different from the picture during her younger days. This is so funny!! But jokes aside, BK works very hard for Kechara to grow. I am very proud of her and her commitment and hid Guru devotion. Her attitude towards work is second to nobody.

   I really cannot find Aunty Beng Kooi in the photo. I had to refer to the other answers. And I thought, “Ohh, so that is Aunty Beng Kooi!” Aunty Beng Kooi is a very hardworking person. She always loves to help people by any means possible. I hope that she will be able to continue her Dharma work in Kechara forever and ever.

   Yes, I can see Beng Kooi and Su Ming together in the picture. They are standing next to each other on the 3rd row. Beng Kooi is 8th from left. How pretty she looks. Su Ming looks really like the mama girl, so proper and innocent.

    Everyone has spotted Beng Kooi! Beng Kooi then and Beng Kooi now is still recognizably the same. The only things that are different are the hair style and her glasses.I can see that she didn’t and doesn’t like to pose for the camera. Only now, she’s telling herself, what the hack, it’s no big deal posing when it’s for Dharma and to benefit all beings.

    Dear Rinpoche,
    Thank you so much for sharing this. I think it’s quite a fun thing to do, take a break from whatever one does, and take part in the ‘treasure hunt’ haha… I spot BK from afar! She’s 2nd row, no. 6th from the right. I had good fun. How refreshing it is.

    Much Love,
    Nicole

    Dear Rinpoche,

    Hehe. This was fun, a quick distraction from work. And I think everyone has spotted Beng Kooi without much effort. She looks so cute in the photo, not much of a change! But I agree with what Shirley has said.

    Beng Kooi hasn’t changed much on the outside, her features remain, but one thing has changed in that she has tremendously changed on the inside for ‘studying has lit the light up in her’ and now, has a very different motivation from when she was in the picture.

    This blog post prompted me to reflect on another one which Rinpoche wrote recently, a compelling insight to impermanence and spiritual practice:

    Thank you Rinpoche,

    Much love,
    Carmen

    I think BK is 3rd row from front, 5th girl from right with glasses. Actually the tall girl next to her looks like SM.

    We can spot BK from a mile! She’s the 6th girl from the right on the 2nd row. I don’t think Su Ming is in here. BK hasn’t changed much but I agree with what Bryan wrote – BK looks so much better now. She is really in her own element now. Hehe

    However we look or change with our appearances is not a big deal. What’s the biggest deal of all is how we change on the inside. And BK is truly a gem of a person. She is really dedicated to the Guru, Dharma and Sangha.

    Dear Rinpoche,

    I think Beng Koi doesn’t really change much since high school, she is on the 2nd row from the front, and no6 from the right.

    And she look much moree better with short hair now …

    Dearest Rinpoche,

    Thank You for the posting, it’s real fun to look at SM and BK both of their photo. It’s a bit hard to locate SM, but I still want to try it out….

    My answer is, 2nd row from the front(right to left) BK located at no.6,and SM located at 2nd last row(right to left)at no.4!

    Thank You Rinpoche.

    I think Beng Kooi is the girl, 2nd row from the front, 6th person from the right. HAHAHAHAHAHA! I’d think that’s Beng Kooi’s sister. How cute and hilarious! hehe

    Su Ming is standing directly behind Beng Kooi. She looks groomed! Amazing! hehe.

    Dear Rinpoche,

    hope you are well. My guess would be Su Ming is on the 2nd row from top, 4th form the right. BK is just below her with the specs. 😉
