About

We are a family moving from Egypt to KL, around July 2013. BTW we are Egyptian/Canadians. I had been a UN officials for many years and in different countries. Now I am on retirement, though still being active in Humanitarian work and activities. Our two children; my son 9 (grade 5)and daughter87 (Grade 3). We have been recently in KL, and thought that Ampang might be a good place for residence, due to its proximety to KLCC and other surrounding areas. We may be mistaken.
Interests: musuem, , family and children travel

Occupation

I am Retired.
