Around 1800hrs, off to Lumut via Ipoh for PPL-PPT assignment scheduled at the Royal Malaysian Navy (RMN) Lumut on Friday 2nd.May'2008.

* Jalan-jalan Cari(k) Makan. Looking for Food.

Hungry for food! Drove to Lumut town to find something to eat and stopped by Mdm.R***'s food court when caught by sounds of people sing karaoke.

Ordered nasi lemak & iced lemon tea.(Ada pulak nasi lemak time2 gini.)

Here, for one Ringgit you can sing karaoke songs at the centrestage managed by a DJ. These amateur karaoke singers singing will entertain you while you eat & drink.

Biase-le Yob ade yang nyanyi out of tune, off key, pitching lari dan sebagainye...Layan je-lahhhh...

Mdm.R*** , who manages the food court.

Resort lama. Old resort.

By looking at the design/interior decor, resort may be built in the late 80's or early 90's.

Ratan chairs & diagonal timber slats/panelling.

Normal ritual during checking-in. Checking all facilities' workability!

PPL PPT Audit@ Persatuan Pembaik Kereta Kuching.20-22 Apr'08

20 April'08.

Touch down in Kuching.

To Kuching again. 2 weeks ago I was in Kuching giving lectures at Batu Kawa.This time around it was with Wan N to verify candidates' portfolio and assess I-031 presentation by Zurainas trainers. Organized by Mr.Jo**** of IKM at Persatuan Pembaik Kereta office in Kuching.

*It was Wan N's first time around to Kuching so I was like the tourist guide for those 3 days*

Mr.A******, the Sarawak regional office driver was already at the airport to send us to the hotel. But as usual, we stopped by at Chillies Peppers for a quick bite. Half and hour later after we checked in at Harb*ur View, Wan N and I went down to the Sarawak riverbank for a late night stroll.
