16 March 2008 - It was the second day for the annual First Aid and Marching Competition, since yesterday is marching competition, so today is Long and Short Case Competition. During short case, our team were blurred as the case has two casualty. Normally for a short case there will be one casualty only. Our team was not very good as the time was flying during the competition. We do not have enough time to think and react properly. At 11.50, the results were out and we, the SMI Cadet Team was unable to qualify to state level competition. Poi Lam Division managed to get 3 golds ( Marching, Long Case, Short Case), Pei Yuan, Kampar managed to get 3 bronze and SMJK Yuk Choy managed to get 2 Silver. For SMI, the adult team get nothing but Lee Kam Wah managed to get Highest Individual and our team only grabbed silver for marching and wipe out all the 3 Highest Individual. It was considered as the worst year for SMI St. John. We, the Cadet Team disappointed our trainer, Looi Hong Wei and all our supporters. Our journey ends here......
