DATUK AHMAD RIDHUAN

The last post on this blog was in July 2016, almost a decade ago.

Of course lots of things have changed during that time. For a start, mad redo1 is no more as he goes by the name The Ahmad Ridhuan these days. 

However the biggest change of all though is he has been bestowed the title "DATUK" in January this year.

Well, it was not the one awarded by the Sultan of Terengganu but it was when AKS01 safely delivered her first child with her husband, Najib Bahaman on the ninth, a baby girl who was a bit underweight, plucked from the womb via a Ceasarean procedure after the opening was not enough for normal delivery.



The initial nickname was Alexis before they officially named her Ayla Nadine which they said was derived from Turkish. Ayla means "halo of light around the moon" while there is no specific Turkish reference to Nadine, in Arabic it means "tender". So the combination could means Tender Light. 

She spent most of the first three months of her life with us in Kuala Terengganu with the roomie becoming the doting grandmother, tending her every need when she is able to while The Ahmad Ridhuan prefers the observer approach.

Well, Ayla Nadine is no longer with us in Kuala Terengganu as she is now in the Klang Valley as her parents need to go back to work after their maternity leave.

Would that mean more trips to the Klang Valley?
