ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ BANDAR UTAMA WENT RUNNING AT BHP ORANGE 11KM RUN @ CURVE

25 JULY 2010. Whilst 8 recruits (including guests) from the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ Bandar Utama went for MOUNT NUANG EXPEDITION in Hulu Langat, another 8 recruits participated in the BHP Orange run.

Since the BHP Orange run was first organised, we had never missed it every year but this year, we went to Mt Nuang expedition instead but our circle of friends from the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ Bandar Utama ran the BHP Orange 11km run and many of them were first time participants at the BHP Orange run and some were Virgin runners.

Those BHP Orange Runners from the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ Bandar Utama were..

ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA: BU-OBC 11/12: SPLASHING MOMENT

.

21 July 2010. Its the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA July second last session at Bandar Utama and the weather was moody and tantrum, crying out a downpour of rain. The sky was so dark.... Oh.. its dark because it was 5:30am, the time we arrived at the BU3/1 football field. In darkness, we can only imagine the field condition.

The rain was still heavy when Sarge did the roll-call. Corporal Chun and Corporal Sandy Robers were the other instructors for today's session. All the Kiasu were present but almost half of the recruits were absent. When the ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP tagged the line "Rain Hail or Shine" we exercise... they really mean business.

IPOH INTERNATIONAL HALF MARATHON

.

18 July 2010, Ipoh. Which hotel did we book again? I asked Nawal Aini Zulkifli as we searched the GPS to find our way to the Hotel in Ipoh. It was almost 9pm and we drove in heavy rain from KL to Ipoh. Its the Ritz Carlton, said Rose Emini Pahamin via the Blackberry Chat. Rose Emini Pahamin, Ilyanna Aylin Ayob, Bahariah Bahadom, Suriana Saiful, Nyna Mohsen hadarrived earlier in the morning.

To cut the story short, we were rescued by Aunty Umi, Mum's best friend whom is an Ipoh'ian. We reached the hotel and saw a big signboard that reads... "Ritz Kowloon". No, we didnt stay there but the next block the Ritz Garden.

Bahariah Bahadom booked our hotel rooms via the internet bearing the distance to the Stadium where we will be running but without any knowledge of the hotel except for the pictures posted on the internet that look pretty awesome. To cut the story short again... the soonest we enter the hotel and into our room, Nawal Aini Zulkifli said... this hotel smells Sex but the hotel, lobby and the rooms were clean, tidy, neat and nice.

ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA: JULY PAGE 8/12: WELCOME BACK

.

14 July 2010. Welcome back John Chuah, Tricia Fredericks and all those football World Cup followers. The past month has been tough on both recruits and trainers whom suffered from the World Cup Jetlag, staying up late at night with only very few hours of sleep. They were only physically in Malaysia but their thought and mind were in South Africa. 18 recruits were absent on Monday's training session when they did not get sufficient sleep watching the final match between Spain and Holland. Some recruits were Spain and some Holland strong supporters but some simply wanted to see if Paul the Octopus (Sotong) prediction was true. Me...? I just like to eat Sotong.

Paul the Sotong's prediction was right... Spain won!! and so was the prediction that we will suffer if we missed any training session. To welcome back those Missing-in-World-Cup, we had an exhilarating 705 calories burn session this morning with Ropes and killer sprint and run cardio.

We bought the villa at the Sepang Gold Coast but took 4 Villas for this weekend celebration.

ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA @ BANDAR UTAMA FIRST GRADUATION PARTY AT ECOBA

 7 July 2010. Its Party time time at the ECOBA.

Why?  Well.. Like what I've mentioned before, we don't really need a reason to party... but if there must me a reason, it must be to give ourselves a deserving break from a month of exercising. There is no better reason but to pat ourselves on the back and say... hey, we took the first step of health-maintenance. There is also no better people to celebrate it with, beside the people that share similar passion.

BREAKDOWN WITH EXCELLENT SERVICE

.

I rushed through the early bad morning traffic and took the NKVE highway to Putrajaya to attend the Ministry of Finance 2011, Budget Consultative Council meeting when suddenly my driver prompted the car in smoke!!!!

I look back through the rear screen and saw a thick smoke and immediately asked my driver to stop the car... Who knows, the car may be blown to pieces and I wont be around for the first ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP graduation party tomorrow night.

The council meeting to be chaired by YAB Prime Minister is scheduled to start at 9am and the time then was 8:35am.

We stopped the car by the road side and saw a thick red-oil flowing under the car.... Gearbox problem, my driver claimed. Less than 3 years old MERCEDES  bought new from NZ Wheel have successfully gathered a long list of problems... but that is a story for another occasion.

ROUND-TABLE MEETING WITH MAYBANK BERHAD

.


24 June 2010, Dataran Maybank Bangsar. PEDA executive committees had an official round-table meeting with Maybank Autofinance team at the Dataran Maybank in Bangsar.

Personally, I have a long 13 years good history with Maybank since 1997. Maybank was the first Bank that offered my first business facility during the inception of my Proton Edar Dealership after my merchank banking days with the Commerce International Merchank Bankers Berhad (Now known as CIMB Investment Bank).

The first Maybank Manager that attended to me was Murad whom was then the Maybank Branch Manager for Klang in 1997. Murad was the first Manager that introduces me to the Floor-stocking facilities. When Murad was transfered to Medan Pasar, Norhisham Hashim took over the Klang Branch. Through Norisham, I learn the automotive trade and very negligibly through by Proton Edar.

After Norisham, Musawir attended to me when my facility was transfered to Puchong. 13 years later, all of them are now a prominent banker with an office on the highest floor at the Dataran Maybank, Bangsar. Alhamdulillah, everybody are successful.

ITS PARTY TIME...!!!

Where? Damansara Perdana, The Ecobar Restaurant & bar

When? Wednesday, 7 July 2010, 7:30pm onwards

Why? There are reasons.. but then who needs a reason to Party.

ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA: JUL PG3/12: GOOD FRIDAY

.

2 July 2010. TGI Friday... Thank God Its Friday... actually its more like OGI Friday.... Oh God Its Friday... Its already Friday and the beginning of the third quarter of the year. The half year is gone and the New Year Resolution is still far-fetched... but that is a story for another occasion.

What is more relevant, was the exercising via the bootcamp that is still consistently an ACE (Attendance, Commitment and Effort) for the past half year!! though the target running races for this year is still lacking... but that too is a story for another occasion.

More than 50% of recruits FFK/skipped the Benchmark Assessment on Monday. When they thought they could escaped scot free, they were alienated this morning from the rest to performed the Benchmark Assessment. The Benchmark Assessment assessment is important to gauge the the level of fitness of each recruit.

BSN BANK

.
Together with Proton Edar Dealers Association Malaysia (PEDA) Vice-President Lee Lick Sai and exco Fathul Rahman, PEDA paid an official and friendly visit the BSN Bank. It is a regular meeting to keep ourselves updated with the on-goings in the market but part of our primary agenda was for a better financing package to both our members and for Proton buyers.

Our meeting was attended to by two of the three deputy Chief Executives, the senior Vice-President and the Head (See: BSN organisation chart) namely, BSN Deputy Chief Executive Office for Credit Management & Business Support Winston E. Jeyaprakash, Deputy Chief Executive for Consumer banking & Business Development Yunos Abd Ghani, Senior Vice President Akhsan Zaini and Head of Credit Management Department Abdullah Aziz Buyong.

ORIGINAL BOOTCAMP MALAYSIA: JULY PG 2/12: GOOD BYE JUNE

.
30 June 2010. The first session of every month is always the Benchmark Assessment. The second session is always the ranking of recruits into their respective fitness level which are the Delta, Seals and Ranger. The benchmark timing is not the only factor that influenced the ranking of recruits. The forms & techniques, medical & health condition as well as their competitiveness and aptitude too, determines the recruit's ranking. Although all the recruits have already been given their respective rank, Sarge Dann, or the lead instructor will raised the recruits a level up or down based on his observation on the recruits fitness level during training. So be wary, you may be demoted or promoted a level up.

The Deltas are the cream and the fittest in the platoon. We should be aspired to grow-up (in a few months) and be like them. The rangers are the best spirited people.. I always look at Ranger Lizza Abdul Rahim for inspiratoin. Her determination during every workout... no matter how hard or strenuous the workout is, she will always smile and pushed herself without ever 'stalling... cheating'... unlike somebody.
