      I see.. so to do volunteer in HKHK.
      How to apply?

      You can call up SHHK and indicate your interest. I think at the joining form they do ask if you are keen. Once you're in, whenever there is activity, they will send out emails asking for participants.

      You just have to be very careful and smart about your SHHK volunteer work. There have been too many instances whereby a certain member volunteers for several events and has joined for 2-3 years and still did not receive a recommendation letter.[/quote]In my opinion, there is nothing to be careful or smart about over volunteer works. The reason why some get recommended, or not, simply due to the popularity of the school they are interested in. The clan has constraints to recommend everyone.

      For example Tao Nan and Ai Tong are the favourite among members, thus a cut off is set in order to get recommended due to overwhelming demand.

        i believe that SHHK would very much like to issue letters to every member that requested for it but is constrainted by the schools who have limited vacancies & have to cater to PV & Grassroots Leaders too.

          so stress by just looking at the no. of registration for Phrase 2C really. Guess i have got to join the SHHK now for my DS P1 registration 2 yrs later … & i am staying within 1 km from NCPS.


          But becoming a memeber without much contribution will not be considered also right. wondering what kind of contribution needed to be eligible for the recommendation letter.

            i don't know much about SHHK but i recently overheard one mummy boasting that she joined the SHHK since her girl was 1 year old. And all these years, she did nothing but just pay the annual fees. And she got the recommendation letter to ATS. Does $ make the world go round? :?

              It is the Huay Kuan membership. They never say must be Huay Kuan leadership

              Do they take attendance when you attend all their functions ?

              Hearsay is questionable

                  Told my boss to join SHHK NOW when the bb is still in her tummy.... 6 years of membership for her by the time she register + some participation = hopefully a recommendation letter. 😉

                      Hmmm... if the schs are still going to have balloting for Phase 2B... wat diff does it make for SHHK to limit it's recommedation letter... assuming it's members are eligible.

We got the SHHK recommendation letter that qualified us in Phase 2B. For the school that we applied for, balloting was done only for >2km, and we fell in the group 1-2km, so was saved from having to ballot.
