The first poster congratulating Michelle Yeoh for winning the Best Actress award at the 95th Oscars was erected in Ipoh at busy Jalan Sultan Idris Shah.

The large poster was sponsored by May Goh, one of the board of directors for SRJKC Ave Maria and the legal advisor for Ave Maria Convent Alumni Association Ipoh. The poster was erected above ISLEE Fashion Boutique, SOHO just after the Sam Tet school.

The poster read ..

“Congratulations, Tan Sri Michelle Yeoh,

The First Asian Winner for Best Actress, 95th Academy Awards.

We Are So Proud Of You

Goh said the “she is personally very proud of Michelle. Sponsoring this poster is a testimony that I appreciate Michelle’s effort and am proud of her achievement.”

She invited Madam Moy who then invited Agnes Wong of the Main Convent  Alumni President to attend the launch. 

Goh added that Madam Moy and Agnes Wong present today because they too are proud of Michelle’s achievement and came to show their support and celebrate her success.

Madam Moy said Michelle’s acceptance speech on Oscars night telling ‘ladies not to give up and dream big as dreams do come true’ was an inspiration and motivator for our youth.

Agnes Wong personally described the morning event as positive. She was informed of the event one week ago. She gathered her committee, some of whom were Michelle’s classmates and came together to celebrate our fellow student’s success.

Agnes shared the same year with Michelle but her twin sister and four others that attended this morning were her classmates.

  1. Yeoh, it was good write up, Bcos I came from the Convent School, Ipoh Main, saw Michelle pass by walking about and, now, she's a celebrity. Best Asian Actress, coming from Ipoh, from our Convent School, that I went to. Seeing the class photo, recognise some of those students, teacher too. Really soo proud of her, how great yet humble & always smiling..Michelle, you will go down in history. Hip Hip Hurray! Sr. Pauline, Sr. Fildema, your student has brought home, fame, to Ipoh Main Convent.
