I aSk YoU tO TrY

This is my first trip to Bali and this trip we went is for our company
Annual Manager's Conference 2011.

During Annual Manager's Conference, all the managers will have to attend for the conference and the venue will be select base on the company profit.This year we did a good job and we go bali for the manager's conference or else we going to only enjoy bali ais at kedai kopi.

All the managers from whole Malaysia meet up at the airport. We printed t-shirt for this trip as this is the best time to do some awareness to the public for branding.


There are 40 person of us and we waited at the airport for 2 hours and finally its time for boarding.
As for company trip, it is best to travel into 2 or 3 separate group and different flight. why le?? Tai ka lei si (touch wood) if the plane crash, the whole company may collapse as all the key man and management staff is onboard.


When we landed at Denpasar International Airport, Indonesia, we was greet by our CEO & GOM as they arrive one day earlier for the preparation. We travel in group so we get a bus to send us around.


First stop is Uluwatu, Officially known as Pura Luhur Uluwatu (yes, that's the real name: "Luhur" means "something of divine origin" while "Uluwatu" can be broken into "ulu" which means "land's end" and "watu" means "rock" in the old language). Nonetheless, merely mentioning Uluwatu will get you here in no time. This is the most spectacular temple on the island of Bali. The inner sanctum of the pura is perched majestically on the edge of a steep cliff that towers above the legendary surf breaks of southern Bali.


All of us can't stop taking the photo and this is the time that you will see all the managers so relax and enjoy the trip as all the funny funny post come out.


At about 6pm, we proceed for Kecak Dance. What makes the Kecak special is that the accompanying music is provided by the human voice, the gamelan suara, a choir of a hundred men or more sitting in concentric circles, swaying, standing up, lying prone as the story develops.
Amongst the swaying masses the voices of the storytellers can be heard telling the unfolding tale.

After the Kecak Dance, we had our dinner at the beach.Seafood dinner and the food is delicious because we are too hungry or else the food so so only..


After dinner, we check in to our hotel. Kuta Station Hotel & Spa is conveniently located in the heart of Kuta, Bali's busiest tourist destination.


Kuta Station Hotel & Spa is just ten minutes drive from International Airport, surrounded with restaurants and bar, all major tourist attractions and Kuta Square shopping complex. The famous Kuta Beach is just a short stroll away.


Kuta Station Hotel & Spa features 132 well appointed rooms range from Superior, Deluxe and Family Room. All rooms are designed with stylish simplicity to meet your need.


Conference begin at 10:30pm and we can see all the tired and sleepy faces...


Once we reach our hotel, all of us proceed to the conference room as we are late and the conference suppose to start at 8.30pm The time we reach the conference room is about 10.30pm. We got no choice but to speed up our presentation and my presentations is the longest cause I need to present 15 branches account and I was talking like a bullet train. (when my turn to present, I heard some voices says "melvyn, you speed up the presentations ya". Anyhow, I still present it until finish and the only thing I do is speed up my talking...And I tell you the feeling is light running in full speed...hahaha.


Our conference ends at 2am and all of us is so tired and exhausted. Few of us walk to opposite mart to get some bintang beer and we enjoy at the swimming pool.


Day 2 woke up at 7am and the face is like panda bear and I need sunglasses to cover the panda eye...yeeee hiak hiak.



I like the Indonesia brick. It is thinner than the usual we have in malaysia.


Barong & Keris Dance : the most famous and colorful dance in Bali which signifies an eternal fight between good & evil spirits, performed dozens of professional dancers.


The dancer eyes is so big and I didn't see their eyes blink le.


After the show, we was taken to visit the gems factory and i saw this building opposite the road and I just walk over to take some photo. This Angel to Angel. The exterior of the building is pink coral and there are larger than life size statues carved from polished marble around the perimeter of the building and along the roofline


Stone design of the wall.



While we travel in the bus, I just snap here and there and end up I got alot of photos...


(Gunung berapi) Volcano... First time see this in real but too sad we cannot walk down there.


Kintamani : said to be the best view in Bali over a magnificent massive crater with smoky Mount Batur in the middle & simmering Lake Batur nearby.


Why my photo not nice geh?


This photo nice leh? I take one ma.



























They don't work with their hands and legs but with their head also.


I like this volcano stone. The features is just awesome. They use it to build building and no painting needed as the natural looks is so special.


Pasar Ubud. there are many souvenir shops selling local crafts and gifts you can take home with you. There is something you will find here that you can't also find in other areas of Bali but its a nice market.


While others still doing their shopping, we take our rest and have some drinks to cool down our body.


Dinner at Golden Palace Restaurant. This restaurant serve chinese food.


Normal chinese food and nothing to shout about.


Cheerrrsss ... yi cha tong cau (use tea as beer)


Lai ciak ciak ciak.. mai pai seh.



After dinner we did not follow the bus back to hotel as we decided to walk back to hotel so that we can see more things and can just stop anywhere we want.


This is all the pub, bar, disco. Nightlife area.


Rip Curl.. Famous brand for the surfer. I like their logo..


Gosha Restaurant has been established since 1985 when the tourism is not as busy as now. (tips: When got chance to go for outing or travel with my ceo, remember to stick beside him not to polish his shoe but to try the delicious food cause he is the man that got alot of places for nice food). This trip I tried the best spare rib... oh man, I still miss it and I can still remember the taste


This Restaurant was constructed in 1985 when the area around us was nothing but pig walking around, cows hanging around, and the road was mud, just like classic balinese lifestyle-the people live together in harmony with their pets (ducks, dog, cats, pigs at the back yard and cows), that because population 99% are farmers. And also there was not any pedestrian pathway, only palm trees sorounding us.


SPARE RIBS Served with fried potatos or steam rice and vegetables Rp. 75.000. YOU MUST TRY THIS.... I tell you... very ho ciak leh.
If you bring me along then I can BBQ myself for you to try. hahaha....actually I stand there fow 2minutes only and I can feel that my egg almost cooked.



The Restaurant located only 200 meter from Legian beach. At that time traffic at Melasti street (where the restaurant located) was two ways traffic. Since there was not any road connected to the other part of Legian-the beach totally kilo meters of white sand beach without any street divide between hotel. So you can ride and drive your vehicle along the wide sand beach from Kuta beach to Seminyak beach, since there was not any people laying on the beach for sunbathing.

Gosha Restaurant is all constructed by bamboo, consisted of small and big pole of bamboo. The lamp shade and the wall also made by bamboo giving the warm atmosphere which is typical classic balinese style architecture.

info take from Gosha


Surfing anyone? I don't have six packs but I got one big pack can surf ar? Hello man, the surf board can stand my big pack?? nia ma the guy just stood there and don wan to choi me.

On our way back, we stop at the Hard Rock shop and do some shopping.


When we reach our hotel, there goes the bottoms up. Tall glass but when cheers, must bottoms up. Thanks to Boon Leong that keep on bottoms up. hahahaha...We only drink once a year together during our Manager's conference. So we must bottoms up in high speed. hahaha...

I still remember after all of us feel tipsy and some abit drunk then we put all the empty bottle infront of my ceo room.

After the Manager's conference, you can see all the manager's prays for their respective showroom to get more sales and achieve their target set cause Financial Year 2011 the target increase.
