A Visit to Brunei

-

Ini merupakan kali kedua aku menjejakkan kaki ke Brunei, kali pertama adalah lebih kurang 20 tahun yang lalu... satu tempoh yang agak lama...

Lawatan kedua ini amat bermakna kerana kami sebenarnya berpeluang mengikuti lawatan balas oleh satu komuniti sebuah masjid berdekatan kolej kami... tujuan asal hanya sekadar mencukupkan ahli namun kami dapat belajar banyak perkara yang tidak dapat dijangkau oleh akal fikiran kami...

Antara perkara yang dapat dipelajari sepanjang lawatan adalah sifat peramah dan layanan yang first class oleh kenalan dari Brunei Darussalam. Kami disambut dan dilayan bagaikan tetamu kehormat  disamping pelbagai aktiviti yang disediakan sepanjang lawatan kami...





Antara aktiviti yang menarik adalah lawatan dan kolaborasi  dengan tiga buah masjid yang terkenal di Brunei. Masjid pertama adalah Masjid  Omar Ali Saifuddien atau dikenali juga dengan masjid terapung...



Menandatangani buku pelawat masjid






Masjid kedua adalah masjid Jame' Asri dan kami berkesempatan bersolat jumaat disana...



Masjid yang ketiga yang dilawati adalah masjid  Bolkiah yang terletak di bandar dan daerah Tutong.




Kami  juga berkesempatan melawat beberapa tempat menarik di Bandar Seri Begawan dan sekitar Pekan Tutong.




Sambil berjalan-jalan di bandar Seri Begawan dengan tidak secara sengaja kami terjumpa dengan Kolej International Graduate Studies sebuah kolej swasta. Kehadiran kami amat dialu-alukan oleh guard yang bertugas dan pelajar yang kebetulan ada kelas di waktu itu... kebetulan hari Jumaat adalah cuti bagi pejabat di Brunei...




hari terakhir berjalan-jalan di bandar Tutong yang juga dikenali sebagai bandar minyak di Brunei...

Before the end of the schools break, my daughters managed to persuade their dad to spend a day at Cameron Highlands. The original plan was to go to Bukit Tinggi in Pahang but he refused to go for some reasons. He has been busy with his work and study thus he he doesn't care much about going for holiday... i don't remember the last time we went for a holiday as a family... Weekends were out of question since there were more than half a dozen wedding invitations that we need to attend. So, anyway last Tuesday morning off we went to Cameron Highlands; just the five of us, hubby and I and the three girls who were beyond excited to go (none of the boys were going).   Since hubby had given a condition that he would be studying in the car all  the way if he was to go (his exam was on the following day), so  Sha was driving and I could tell that she loved every moment of it .. We arrived there at around noon and the place seemed crowded with people as it was ...

How to say no to your boss?

Well.....  the truth is you simply don't......it's something that I learnt that from my previous boss who advised me years back when I jhad just started my early career, the three magic words "never say no". Just the other day, I was debating with myself whether to say no or just accept my boss's suggestion (read: order) without giving him a slightest idea that I'm not capable of doing it ......it's kinda hard to explain coz it's not my job and I don't want to be a scapegoat to be doing it just because somebody else doesn't want to do it.  Anyway, it happened in the meeting, out of the blue like one bright idea bestowed upon him, my boss suggested me doing it ......which, no doubt appalled everyone in the committee and I was left absolutely stunned and speechless........obviously, I didn't make any comment and it was decided then.... Later, came few close friends playing devil's advocate......'This is not your ...
