These pictures were taken recently at the BLNG car park...Was that a mini Astro disc? Has Astro invented a new technology so we can watch Astro programmes in our cars???
I guessed the driver was just too creative with his idea to spruce up the look of his car...hahaha
The much anticipated 11th NBT Treasure Hunt will be held on the 8th July 2007 (Sunday). And luckily guess what? It fell on A-Shift 2nd off day! And what does it means? It means A-Shift treasure hunters will be able to join in the hunt for the 8th consecutive years! Yehoooo...!!
So A-Shift hunters be prepared physically and mentally starting from now though it's still long way to go...I bet you don't want to get frustrated again as in the previous years!
And just to remind you all that it is on a first-come-first-served basis and limited to the first 200 sedans only! So why wait, find a partner (don't disturb Mansor...leave him alone! He's ours! I mean his car is ours hehehe...Ok..ok..Mansor...we will settle last year entrance fees this year...don't worry...hehehe) with a Toyota or Lexus car now or perhaps buy yourself a new Toyota Vios or Avanza today...(hahaha promo..promo..) or why not try asking our friend who drive a RED TOYOTA VIOS (hint..hint..!)...So click on the picture below and get the entrance forms printed...GOOD LUCK!
p/s: I will try to post the pictures from our previous years participation in the NBT Treasure Hunt just to bring back the old good memories and to kick-start the excitement..!
I found this interesting clip from fellow blogger and searched YouTube for it...it's a bit surprising how a person who is totally not a Bruneian appreciated and loved our country so much especially Kuala Belait where he used to stay for two years...! This clip was posted on YouTube on 14 April 2007.
You can read more about this guy here.
"I lived in Brunei Darussalam for two years and some months. We were stationed in the exciting city of Kuala Belait (KB), near the border of Malaysia, where we would make regular trips to stock up on beer and wine, which can not be sold (legally) in Brunei. I joined up with three other expats - a Scotsman, an Irishman and an Englishman, [no, I'm not telling a joke!] to form a folk group called The Belaiters (pronounced "Blighters"). Fortunately two of the others were good guitarists so I could get away with a bit of background strumming.
Realising that most of the great cities of the world had songs written about them, I thought it was time to celebrate KB in song. So I wrote this to sing at some of our performances. It will not make a lot of sense to people unfamiliar with the delights of this great cosmopolitan city, but I'll be happy to answer any questions about the lyrics. "
Lyrics:
Driving down the road from Jerudong
Don't just stop when you reach Tutong.
With a little bit of luck you might
Make it all the way to Kuala Belait.
...I'm going back to KB, baby.
...That's where I want to be,
...Where the teapot sits on the roundabout
...And the donkey nods at me.
In the middle of the city we've got Jalan Pretty.
That's where all the action is at night.
You can have a lot of fun in Bandar Sri Begawan
But you can't beat Kuala Belait.
...I'm going back to KB, baby.
...That's where I want to be,
...Where the teapot sits on the roundabout
...And the donkey nods at me.
...Bandar Seri Begawan
...Is not the place for everyone.
...'Cause I love - that's right -
...I love Kuala Belait.
This city is expanding at a furious pace.
New buildings going up all over the place
The High Court will open - one of these days.
(Spoken: Well ... it might.)
I love Kuala Belait.
We've got plenty of rice and the noodles are nice.
This town is a gourmet's delight.
You can't go wrong with roti kosong
At New Akbar in Kuala Belait.
In KB town you can watch the sun go down
Sitting on the sand at night.
See the oil rigs burning bright, while the sand flies bite.
On the beach at Kuala Belait.
Let me make this clear -- I really like Seria
The billionth barrel is a wonderful site,
But nothing can compare with the excitement in the air
In downtown Kuala Belait.
Some of the pictures taken during the wedding...
A-shift guys during a fishing expedition at Danau river...still full of energy eh after night shift...hmmmm...Sounds "fishy" out there...hehehe
Kendy and Zuchry waiting patiently for the big catch of the day...
After a failed attempt on the river where Zuchry only managed to catch a small "pisang-pisang" we attempted to venture the Danau beach instead...where again the result was really dissapointing...I guessed better luck next time guys...
Recently the ICS controlroom received another visit by students from ITB. Prior to visiting the controlroom the students were divided into two groups and were brought for a brief tour of the BLNG plant. The first group was headed by A-shift's PA, Ahmad Hj.Morshidi while the second group was also headed by A-shift's PA, Jasmein.
The purpose of the visit was to provide the students with a first hand knowledge of the BLNG plant and its facilities and to give them a better understandings and visions of what their future career might be if they decide to choose BLNG once they completed their studies in ITB.

There was an emergency medical first aid excercise conducted this morning involving the shift first aiders. The exercise was conducted at RMU 1.
The purpose of the exercise is to test the response of the first aider in dealing with a real life emergency situation which require a first aid attention and at the same time to refresh their first aid skill.
A monthly Fun Walk was held last Friday at the Sungai Liang Forest Park which was led by Hj.Mohd.Yusof Hj.Mohd.Taufik (HSEQ).
The objectives for the fun run/walk are to maintain the health of the workforce through inculcating individuals to take charge of their own health. Furthermore, it will foster a better rapport amongst employees’ after-work and supporting “Work-Life balance” initiatives.
As part of non-monetary reward, a souvenir will be given away for those who participate in the fun run / walk.
