Miri – Part Four of Six

My old buddy Wei Shian. Now he is working at Miri as a painting inspector, something to do with painting job. He told me that his job is very danger sometime, so that’s why there is not much people work in his field. He had a new house, and a new car at Miri…I’m so envy!!! That night he bring me to eat at Yong Lee coffee shop, when go Miri you must try the famous shell meat kuih tiao. After my second round dinner, we chit-chat, talk some bullshit, see pretty girls, share some working experience. Then he knows I like to take photos, so he brings me to Canada Hill. On top of Canada Hill there is Grand Old Lady this is the first oil well in Malaysia, and now it had become an historic artifact.

It has a huge and luxurious lobby, but one thing that I’m not satisfied with is that it had no air-conditioner or fan to keep people cool.

This post actually need to go first, but I was so excited to show your guys the new park to I change the sequence a bit. So before I went to Miri Park, my friends and I had dinner at a western food restaurant called the “Blue Ginger” . Upon entering the restaurant, I notice they painted one of the walls with seaside view, this had give customer a very unique feel that they are dinning at an exotic beach restaurant. With centimental background music the atmosphere is easy and relaxed. There are still plenty of empty seats as the time is still early. The waiter and waitress are very friendly, they greed us, open the door for us, and even show us to our seat. We wear very simple and casual but yet, still been treated nicely. This is the attitude they should adopt when doing business. At Kuching, some of the restaurant and even shop they will judge you by your look / attire. If you look rich, no doubt you will get the VIP treatment, but if you dress casual then they will give you the “pls...
