Reds vs Blues.

Salam, good day. While in Singapore I've met a lot of friends and some other Bruneians. I feel very much at home there mainly if you are staying at The Royal Plaza on Scotts. I even met Paula Malai Ali. At Geylang Serai I also met my uncle 'Pa Damit Adol and Bu Eton', what a coincidence it was! It has been a long time I didn't meet them. Insya Allah, I wish to bring along my family for holiday should time and $$$$ permits. However, it is back to work now. I have a lot to do, may Allah bless me with a good health and mentally very strong to complete the unfinish. Amin.

Such a huge airport complex, Changi Terminal 3


Dont expect good price here


My favourite boutique


They wish to win the $700k prize


This uncle served me at BK, he is 70+


Untouch inside the toilet, I bring my own


The mini bar as well, I never use it although it is
free. Also what I like at Royal Plaza, they are the
first hotel in the world with no smoking zone and
that provide free mini bar.

First away win.

Salam, good day. Congrats to Brunei DPMM FC on their inaugural away win against Balestier Khalsa. The match's only goal scored by Oo Dogyi in the 35th minutes. Although DPMM FC not playing at their very best, the three points was much more important then. In another match last night, Gombak United defeated Young Lions by 1-0. In the standing Gombak United move up at the summit, followed by SAFFC and Brunei DPMM FC at third spot. DPMM FC's next match was against Sengkang Punggol FC on the 24th of March at The Hassanal Bolkiah National Stadium.

Salam, good day. Not even a day yet, I miss my family. My wife was also 8 months pregnant, hopefully all comes good. Amin. Love bapa:) Later this evening Brunei DPMM FC will face Balestier Khalsa in their S-League Campaign. In the standing, DPMM FC stands at 3rd to Balestier 12th spot. What really worries the coach is complacency among his boys. Emm...not only him, it worries me as well.

After Two Years.

Salam, good day. This morning I'm leaving for Singapore. My last trip to this mordern island is back in March 2007. Compare to any other country in this region, both country Brunei and Singapore is holding the highest currency. So don't expect to spend a lot in Singapore since we are also sharing the currency notes. Also this is a working visit, so should only time permits I will be able to go out wandering around. More updates coming up should I meet with an internet connections in Singapore. Uniquely Singapore!
