Note From Editor
It’s the second edition of the year and this time Food Bites has more pages to fill (8 to be exact), it’s a good step forward and hopefully for the editions to come.

There are 2 articles on the cover page, one on Malaysian Institute of Food Technology (MIFT), in conjunction with the Dean’s Cup Quiz held last month, and the other about the application process involved in the usage of SSMP’s laboratories for SSMP and non SSMP students. There are also write-ups on “Gerai Gaya Hidup Sihat” and the Dean’s Cup Quiz 2008 which received active participation from the students and lecturers of SSMP.

This month’s interview session will focus on Mr. Choong Jian Ming, who is the Exco Perumahan dan Perkhidmatan Pelajar of MPP, also the representative of SSMP in PMUMS. He will share with us his experience so far in PMUMS and measures taken by PMUMS to improve the welfare of students in SSMP.

Also found in this issue is the latest development in food technology, some history on food development as well as some tips on how to get started on exercising. On the back cover is the latest poster of PMSSMP, session 2007/2008, for those in SSMP to familiarise themselves with these faces, as they are the ones who will represent SSMP’s student body.

Last but not least, do visit our blog, “Food Alley” as well as SSMP’s bulletin board for the latest happenings in SSMP. Thanks to those who have helped contributed to this publication.
