| In 1985, Dr Chong, Vice Chairman of the SAC and member of the
Rotary Club of Marina City explored the possibility of starting
an Interact Club with Charter President Hector Charles, PP Dr
K A Abraham, Mr Wong Hong Sze and Principal, Mr Johnny Lau. This
led to the birth of the Dunman Interact Club in 1986 under the
inspiring leadership of Mr Wilfred James. Every year since then,
the President of the Rotary Club of Marina City is the joint
Guest of Honour with the Principal at the annual Interact Club
installation ceremony. From 1991, the Rotary Club has supported
the annual Career Guidance Seminar at Dunman Secondary.
