Above Bonding time: Gen.T 2018 listers like Farah Ann Abdul Hadi became fast friends with Lim Siu Min of Double Vision film productions

It was a reunion of industry luminaries and long-time friends, like athletes Farah Ann Abdul Hadi and Faiz Ariffin, who struck up an immediate bond with Lim Siu Min of production company Double Vision and ethnic musician Alena Murang. Iqbal Ameer of Livesape Group Asia, Jasmin Jalil of Malaysian AIDS Foundation and King Quah of SaltyCustoms found themselves deep in conversation that carried on through the evening. Datin Vivy Yusof was a crowd favourite, and spent the better part of the dinner with seat companions, Tatler Tribe mentors Puan Seri Tiara Jacquelina and restaurateur Michele Kwok, culminating in a burst of #girlboss selfies. 

Over at another corner, Malaysia Tatler’s May 2018 cover stars Denise Chiew and William Sin proved gregarious dinner companions to Lim May Shen, before joining Dzameer Dzulkifli on the floor for an eloquent sharing session.
