This one is a milipede because every segment has 4 legs.

And, this spider was the second spider found crawling in our toilet.

DANGEROUS ROAD SECTION

It is a sacrifice a planter has to face. They can not always bring their family in the estate especially in the new development area due to lack of proper housing facilities. For those who have schooling children, they have to leave their family in town where learning is more conducive. So the quality time with family is during weekend only. That is why every weekend most of planters rush to town to see their family. Some miss-judge the condition of the road thus involved in accident.

Sapi-Nangoh highway is rather new and good. From what I see most people usually traveling at the speed of 120-140 kmph. Keep in mind, when you see the signboard above indicating Kg Basai 25km at the Labuk River bridge reduce the speed to 60kmph because there is a sharp bend where accident frequently happen.

On the same highway, one should be careful because it is a habit for some lorry driver parking their lorry on the highway like what shown above.

Another dangerous area in Sandakan-Telupid highway just after Tanah Emas Plantation Office junction. The warning signboard was erected by authority (see the picture below) but motorist sometimes forget. I have seen accidents in this road section several time and involving up to seven cars at a time.

THEFT IN NURSERY: Proper Photograph

After we make a police report regarding the theft incident in our nursery, the police rejected our photos because it can not be used for police report purpose. The officer wants the photos like the above showing someone pointing at the affected area.

If anyone want to make a police report with photos, he must be in the photo pointing at the damage occurred. In the first photo Mr. Lim pointing at pre-nursery batch 11A where the seedlings was uprooted and stolen. The second photo showing the Main-nursery where the thief took several seedlings. The third photo is a closeup of a polybag where the thief uprooted the seedlings.

The step taken to overcome the thievery problem at this time is by adding security personnel because it is very costly to fence almost 1 million seedling in 86 ha of nursery. But, our company still penalize the contractor for their negligence.

on the other hand, the contractor manager is on his way to find some "bomoh" to "fence" area and make the thieves "pay."

THEFT IN NURSERY

I have been away from the net since three months ago. I am so tied up in the office to complete all of Coupe 1 and Coupe 2 drawings. Now I have completed all of it and will be able to spend some time with family and friends. However, I will be in the estate during Christmas because most of the people already on holiday since early of this week. I have to look after our office and its precious equipment such as survey and GPS tools.

Early morning we are shocked to hear that our nursery was purloined by some buggers. They took More than 2500 oil palm seedling just by uprooting it. That is the common way these thieves steal from any pre- and main-nursery. It will be a lesson to anyone who have nursery to put extra security during holidays.

Damn bugger.
