Happy New Year 2009

Today is the beginning of the new year 2009. I am now having my holiday in Brunei until Sunday before going back to Mukah, a small town in Sarawak to continue estate visit and audit. I just reached Brunei this afternoon.

I started stocktake the fertilizers at the estates and CPO and PK of the mill at Mukah yesterday. This morning, I went to stocktake the CPO and PK of the mill for the second time since today is the real cut off date before my flight to Miri from Mukah at noon.

Yesterday night, I countdown alone at the hotel, watching tv live shows of countdown for the new year at Taiwan and Malaysia. The fireworks were very bice although I could not witness at the place. I planned the join the disco party at the hotel lobby but I was late and the door was closed. Too bad!!! Anyway, at least I am able to take this opportunity to come back Brunei for few days to visit my family and relax and meet some old friends here.

During December 2008 and January 2009, I have been and will be flying alot. Last month, I just took flight to Johor for estate visit. On 30 December, I flew from KL to Miri then took another flight from Miri to Mukah. Then for today, I flew from Mukah to Miri.

After that, I will be flying to Mukah from Miri on 4 Jan, Mukah to Kuching and back to Kuala Lumpur on 11 January. Last but not least, for the Chinese New Year, I will be also flying back directly to Brunei from KL on 24 Jan and back to KL on 28 Jan. Too much flying these two months.

For the new year 2009, I decided not to take ACCA this semester because of busy working schedule. I will take P2 only for the July intake taking December exam. Anyway, hope that this year will be a better year for my career and work. I also hope that everyone will be happy always despite the anticipated problems of economic downturn and political issues around the world.

All the best to all...Forget the past, look forward for the better future.
