In touch with Prof KJ Ratnam
IN OUR article titled “A reporter unshackled’’ which appeared in Starmag on
Sunday, we inadvertently used the word “late” on Prof Emeritus Datuk K.J.
Ratnam, former dean of Universiti Sains Malaysia’s Social Sciences Faculty.
The 73-year-old is retired and well and is living with his wife in Bangsar.
It’s all my fault. I made a grievous boo-boo in my memoir, but it all ends well. As a result, I am now in touch with the good old Prof (KJ as he is fondly remembered by all his colleagues, friends and former students.) He has forgiven me and I will meet him for a reunion on my next trip to KL.
