Rashan Samee, a student from Bangladesh who is currently studying the Canadian International Matriculation Programme (CIMP) in Sunway College got up after sitting for a test in a classroom (SE-3-14), handed over his test paper and walked out of the classroom. He had completely forgotten that he had placed his black “Dell” laptop in a desk at the back of the classroom. The laptop was estimated to be worth approximately RM2, 000. He went home to his apartment still oblivious to the fact until after 3 and ½ hours later. He returned to the classroom and could not find his laptop there.

Vincent Wong, also a CIMP student who walked in to the same classroom to collect his project found the laptop after his one hour class and reported it to the Security Department. The report was made at 3:15pm on 20 May 2011.

Rashan later came in to the Security Department and reported his missing laptop at 4.30pm the same day. At 4.40pm, Vincent handed over the laptop to Rashan while Mr Gopal Kandasamy, Manager of the Security Department witnessed the event.

Rashan who was very grateful to Vincent said, “I was fortunate and thankful to receive my laptop back as it contained my notes and assignments that were relevant to my coursework”.

Mr Gopal consistently stressed the importance of being careful with their valuables to the two students. At the same time they commended Vincent for his prompt action and honest behaviour.
