bintan offsite
---

last week was out offsite, where we went to bintan island, indonesia - an hour ferry ride away from singapore. we did some team building, award ceremony and conferences to discuss the future. i forgot to bring my camera, therefore, i just grabbed these photos from some people. it was fun to see the rest of the local market, as 3 pax from the 5 markets we work with was able to go.



this was taken at the beach - where we had a telematch - it was a competition between teams - and i was at team number 4 with khoi (VN), ravi (ID), esther, jazreel, me, sid and siti (MY)- and guess what we won, it was a cool way to build camaraderie with the team. it felt great!


this was the gold medal - there was only 1 team awarded and we were that.


this was an award that i received from management - it was called braveheart - in recognition of your extraordinary contribution, resilience, independence and ability to deal with client (P&G) directly. it came with a letter and envelope with SGD 100.

we stayed at club med, a prime resort in bintan that doesn't come cheap, we paid around SGD560 for 3d/2n per person, but it was worth it - eat all you can on all meals. drink all you can from fruit juices to alcoholic drinks. you can also get dessert and do anything under the sun, fantastic pool, courts for badminton, basketball, soccer, etc.


this was the view of the pool from the 4th floor, nice. we swam that evening around 10pm - and the water was warm, it wasn't chilly at all.


this was the room, it was beautiful, the only problem was that its hot - everywhere - no exceptions from bedroom to conference room and restaurants. i shared a room with tony (colleague) and connected to kristine and monique's room.

so, that's that, next few weeks will be very busy with all the work stuff that i need to do. hay nako.
