My Adventure in Labuan

Sorry for the late post...  just back from Labuan few days ago after staying there for almost one month. Since I out-stationed the whole last month, so I just briefly talk about my adventure in Labuan. 

Labuan is situated nearby Sabah and Brunei, you can go Labuan from Miri via MASwings ATR-72 in 45mins or from KL in 2 hrs 20mins.

Ok, what's interesting about Labuan? Basically, Labuan is a place for working only, especially oil and gas industry.. NOT for tourism. Don't be fooled by those beautiful pics in tourism website!! It's only wasting time and money if you come Labuan for travelling. The only good thing about Labuan is Duty Free for liquor, cigarette and chocolate.. and also women, if you're drunk enough. That's my colleague's point of view about Labuan. LOL.

Next, what I do in Labuan? Hmm..wait.. before I proceed to next section, let me introduce two of my colleagues- XY & KY, same department, same position and also joined in June. Three of us went TBOSIET and Labuan together. Luckily, got two of them same batch with me ^^
XY (Left), KY (Middle) & Me, Zoe- we named ourselves as XYZ!! haha
We (three of us plus an intern) are Labuan Kulis cos we need to work everyday, including weekend and public holidays. How about Raya holiday? Of course, in coverall & safety boots, working la. Everyday, we usually do lab experiment and play at the yard. Our toys are chemicals, hammer and spanar. What's is the biggest spanar you ever seen? 30cm? 40cm? Hahaha. Sorry.. Our spanar in the yard is as long as your arm or even longer! Damn heavy wei!! Under the sun somemore!! LOL. Hardcore.. no play play
Doing experiment in lab (p/s: sorry don't have proper photo in lab, only have those funny photos)
At yard.. three kids with green hats (the guy is the intern)
Work Hard?? Of course, must play hard la... relax and enjoy after work.. such as
Good food for dinner
Lepak at Batu Manikar Beach
Play bowling at Financial Park (a.k.a Ujana Kewangan), the one and only shopping complex in Labuan
Limteh 
of course, go clubbing la... it's Labuan!! 
Last but not least, I want to introduce my ang mo boss/ technical manager. He is a Dutch and his favorite colour is orange  (which is Holland football team's color). 
My boss. Like a model in this photo. LOL
That's all from me regarding my one month Labuan trip! Thank you and hope u guys enjoy reading it!
