At last... problem solved

ITB Career Day 22 January 2009- At last my "problem" and doubt regarding police car photographing solved. Luckily the traffic police are there to solved my problem. When I asked about "Is it an offence to photograph police cars?. He said" its ok, but as long your intention is good or just photographing for hobby. But in case get stopped by the cops. Jst tell the truth". Special thanks for him. Yeah, will photograph more police car again.

Flood Aftermath

Tanjung Bunut hill can't stand it anymore

The road leading to UBD library was covered with dirt.

The Brunei worst flood that claimed two people lives had affect most of the areas in Brunei Muara. The hillsides suffered most where the area used to be a stable hillside also suffered lanslides. While the Gadong tunnel were closed. I just go to the class 1 disaster area where only slight damaged occur.

Airport fire station, now and then

Airport Fire Station no.2 which provide fire cover for the aircraft hangars
The area where the 1974 6-bay airport main fire station used to stand now only a clear land
New airport fire station completed and operational on 2008

Providing fire cover for the aircraft and the airport building and facilities itself is a challenging task for firefighters especially the Brunei Civil Aviation Fire Department (Bomba Airport). The department start to privide its fire cover with their first appliance which is the Thornycroft crash tender in 1960s. Later in 1970s as the new Brunei International Airport completes, the fire department operates from their new base which can house 6 appliance at a time.

As time goes by the department decicded to move and build a new station which completed in 2008. This new station is built larger and the appliance bay can accommodate up to 10 to 12 appliances at a time. When large scale incident airport occurs at the airport the appliances bay can be converted into Mass Casualty Triage.

While the main station deal with nearly all fire and rescue operation around the airport premises, the 2nd airport fire station which located near the aircraft hangar provides fire strike fire rescue in case fire occurs at the hangar. If situation become uncontrolled the 2nd station will contact the main base for support.

Heavy rain in KB 10 January 2009



The wet season come again to Kuala Belait. On last January 10 several areas in Belait and Seria town was submerged. The drains around are useless at that time as nearly all drains are overflowing. The situation was worsened with heavy rains for nearly 12 hours which stopped slowly in the afternoon. And the high tide which occur the day before until 10 Janury also worsened the situation.

Weird car accident but true

Jerudong FRS firefighters lending hands to help the cops and EMS
Overview of the accident

11 January 2009, opening my Road Traffic Accident (RTA) album is the RTA case of the Pajero at the Tungku Link highway near the UBD Flyover. Believed to be happened at 11am, the RTA which seem as 'mini case' turns complicated when eyewitness say that a person with brain disorder are seen running away from the site thus more emergency personnel summoned including firefighters from the Jerudong FRS.

For me the crash is unique as the Pajero was driven at the dirt wall/section along the highway until it lost control and smashed the ground until it stopped in the dirt. Wonder how this crash occur?

My HAZMAT Specialist/Investigator

The backpack CO2 extinguisher and BA Set. Possibly Lanard wants to copy the IFEX extinguisher but the outcome become like this.
The HAZMAT Specialist conductiong investigation in the HAZMAT case site.

Ready to fight fire in HAZMAT case




Recently I bought a Hazardous Material (HAZMAT) specialist/investigator action model. Manufactured by Lanard and sold at Soon Lee Mega Mart for $26 later as time goes by and no one wants to buy they later discount it 50%. So become $13. Although it is not a serious action model and its kit didn't match as the real thing but is has a play value (for kids and also for adult as well).

The kit consist of :
1) Type 1 initial chemical protection suit
2) Walkie-Talkie
3) Road barrier
4) EMS Oxygen tank (C/W Mask)
5) Backpack CO2 extinguisher C/W BA Set
6) Status note board
7) Watch
8) Boots
9) SLR Camera

Nothing to do in the car so just snapping the picture of Seri Bypass.

Last semester holiday was meaningful to me. At last I succeed to 'date' with my admire who i admire since my PRE-U2 years. We date at an undisclosed location in Pandan 5. She still charming to me. However, something wird happen when we 'date'. I also don't know why my stomach suddenly full although I just eat 2 slice of murtabak, while she also like that only eat two chicken wings but already full. Very very weird.
