I am getting a complain from personal friend on why I NEVER update my blog. Well first of all this blog is meant for business purpose (tho I expose some of my personal life to proof hey I am real person).

Anyway I should probably update (yeah I still exist and reply your emails).  Drop me inquiry if you need any assistance regarding Import/Export to/from Indonesia.

Just like the previous year, I attended the 7th PPL Networks Annual Global Meeting. This year it was held in Manila, Philippines on 25th - 28th May 2014.

Receiving award. Only reputable and loyal agents get this =)

Cocktail Night with Myanmar and Japan Agents

All Delegates on business suit 

After doing my research, i took the chance to extend my trip and did my Lasik Surgery at Shinagawa Lasik at Makati area. One of the best decision I made! The whole process took just 1 day and when I woke up the next morning, everything looks crystal clear. And I could also do my check up at Singapore (at some fee).

Next day with perfect clear eyes *feels good*

Visited Ocean Park and feed the penguin. Took a picture with Pinay

Day Tour to Corregidor Island

Walk This Way - Walking Tour by Carlos Celdran

Checking out Manila own beer before I left :p

It was a nice experience to visit a neighbour country. Surprisingly the city is more advanced than I thought. Heard from my local tour guide their current president is doing a good job. Perhaps next time I would come again for holiday and explore their underwater world. Till then...

PPL Network 6th Annual Global Meeting, Bali 26th - 29th May 2013

Holla.... I am back from my Bali trip almost a month ago. Recently attended PPL Network 6th Annual Global Meeting which held in Bali 26th - 29th May 2013 at Pan Pacific Nirwana Resort. This is my second trip since we joined as member of PPL Network. There were over 230 delegates from more than 80 countries attended the meeting.

It got easier for me this year round as I see familiar faces and old friends. The 4 days 3 nights event was fully packed, exhausting, yet fun and fruitful.

The hotel was AWESOME! Ahem... I do forget that I am being sent as a delegate and enjoyed my self a lot here :p. Food was not as great as I expected. Anyway pictures tell a thousand words... enjoy~~

5th PPL Network AGM, Bangkok 27th - 30th May 2012

I should have update this long ago but were too busy to update. Myself and my colleague went to Bangkok for PPL Network Annual Meeting from 27th - 30th May 2012. The 4 days 3 nights stay were fully packed and memorable experience.

Our first night was spent mingling with the members as a private function at Sambal Restaurant which is located at Royal Orchid Sheraton Hotel, also the hotel we were staying. The weather was just nice with cool breeze I reached there on time at 7.30pm. It was a little awkward at first as I know NO ONE and my colleague decided to buy something and joined me later. But I found I am not the only one who felt that way as there were many others who just joined the network like us and know nobody. Just smile to everyone and approach whoever that meets your eyes. Don't worry you won't be rejected as we all come here for the same reason: To know each other and get business! So if you are SHY, forget about being a salesman or an entrepreneur. I ended the night at 10.30pm to sleep in early.

Meeting started at 8.30am with total attendance about 210 delegates from 70 countries. It was the highest record since the network's 5th year. We had a one-to-one meeting where we had a 15 minutes private meeting with the PPL member.

We boarded 'The Grand Chao Praya Cruise' for private dinner where we spent 3 hours on board to enjoy the food and music. I awarded myself with a bottle of Singha Beer :). We reached back our hotel at 10pm and thought was too early to sleep. So me and my colleague walked out from the hotel and pampered our selves for 2 hours of Thai Massage.

The next 2 days was another fully packed day. The event was successful and fruitful. Not to mention was memorable one too.

Look forward to PPL Network meeting next year!

Life's Good!
