Tree Planting Ceremony In Conjunction with Borneo Jazz Festival, 2014

It was the first thing on the schedule that the committee had planned before the real event begins. I personally think it was a great effort made because we are contributing back to the mother nature for whatever causes that we had done. 

The event was held at Tenby International School, Miri with attendance of the local and foreign media and not forgetting a few performers that were in time to get up the ride that had been provided. 




Before the official tree planting started, never forget from the usual routine, a speech from the host who were generous to be part of this meaningful event. A big gratitude to the principal, Mr Philip Brisley to be part of the ceremony. Nevertheless, Dato' Rashid Khan, CEO of Sarawak Tourism Board gave his speech about the intention behind this ceremony and I remembered well that he said, "It is an intention to contribute to our mother nature for the damages that we may not know that we had done. It is also to educate the younger generations about the importance of the nature." It was definitely straight at the point that it was true and youngster nowadays tend to forget and incautious about this fact. 


Followed by the speech was the souvenir presentation as a token of appreciation to Tenby International School from Sarawak Tourism Board, represent by Dato' Rashid Khan.

Just when I thought I am going to cover myself with soils and much sunlight, to my surprise, one of the group of performers was going to have a short performance just before we got tanned with much vitamin D! They blew me off once they opened their mouth. How can human throat produce such an amazing and soothing sound? Most of all, from an all male group!


Their short performances got my soul attached which I nearly forget that we have something more important in the list to be done. We then head out to the hall with some real business to be done. A group photo before everyone gets their hand down to the land.


By surprised again, the media (us) were told that we can have our own tree planted in the compound. What a gift and I told them I'm gona be back to see it in twenty years to see how well it grows. 

It was a great experienced since it was the first tree-planting ceremony that I had ever attended. What am I more excited of? The welcoming dinner where we will be meeting most of the performers and welcoming them in the most Borneo way. Stay tuned for more post!!~

TOUGH

Why do people looks tough when they are actually weak in heart? Why do people pretending to stand alone without no one but actually they need care the most? Why do people trys to look tough from the outside to decrease the possibilities of being bully instead some people actually trying to help with open arms? This is actually a very broad definition out of it. So what position are you in for being tough. Everyone was trying to be tough for lots of things that they are facing nowadays. There are nothing wrong with it to be tough but remember there is still friends out there to lend you their shoulders and be a good listener.

YOU TIAO & JOHN KING TART

YOU TIAO is what we called in Chinese and ' YAO ZA GUAI ' is what Cantonese named it and this food is said to be origin from Cantonese people. This is one of the high demand food in Pavilion. It is simple, non-oily and reasonable in price. Their freshly made Tau Foo Far taste great and it is so smooth and doesn't have much of the bean taste which make people hardly love to eat them..... You Tiao - It is so crispy to eat just like that or you wanted to eat with their plain porridge would also be great because the combination of both makes perfect!!! Porridge - Their porridge is not so hardened or over watery. I guess that's the perfect way to describe. It is just alright and you can hardly see the rice but instead it is little sticky which a porridge should have.... After having that, my friend continuing exploring other food in the section. We go for the tart that had been very popular and keep mentioning by those who had ever had them. The legendary tart, ...

Birthday Present

Birthday just past few days ago and I am so so happy to receive things that is so so unexpected. I never thought of receiving something special but indeed out of expectation. The first pressie is far away from Cambodia. It is a gift from my dear Cynthina . A gift doesn't necessary to be expensive. The heart always counts. The second pressie is so so unexpected that blast me off. It is a gift from ah gor . It is something that I wish to have but I never expect to get it as a gift during my birthday. The lens that come with the digital lomo . There are fish eye, star dust and some others. The digital lomo . The lomo which film not necessary in it. Only memory card needed to be insert, so how convenient it is? You get the lomo effect and at the same time do not need extra time to develop. The only thing is you can't see the picture after you capture.
