Make Roads Safe Goodwill Ambassador Michelle Yeoh

Michelle Yeoh (a Malaysian actress who starred alongside Pierce Brosnan in the James Bond movie  Tomorrow Never Dies) and made a speech at the Transport Forum today in my office. We were all curious to see her. Some co-workers caught her after her speech at the forum to have their pictures taken. Because of her tight schedule, they had their pictures taken in one big group.

Michelle Yeoh made visits to the top officials where some tried to get a glimpse of her. We were lucky to have the opportunity to have our pictures taken then. She's sooooo slim and pretty!

Michelle Yeoh appeared in Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon with Chow Yun Fat and Memoirs of a Geisha in 2005 among other movies she made. She was also Miss Malaysia 1983.
