Yesterday sibeh sueh... Boss tell me go deliver documents to this ship achored outside Tuas Reclaim area. Wah lau eh!?! Sibeh jia lat leh... Do dispatch must do until ship there ah?
Hang Cheng pai pai... No choice lah... I have to send means I have to send lor... I went to the temporary jetty at Tuas South there and take this motorboat to the ship. Because I not always go to this ship so tong pang other people's boat.
We half way to ship then sekali got this chao tah smell... At first I thought somebody BBQ then I see the engine that side got smoke come out... Siao liao lah!?!
The boat "captain" don't know say what in Malay... apa apa ini... di sana di sini... Anyway, all the passengers bo pian just sit around and wait for "rescue" boat to come. I thought want to pah game on my handphone but then a bit low batt liao so siow siow, just sit there and talk cock with some of the other guys there.
When the "rescue" boat came, all of us had to jump over... Wah lau eh!?! I first time take this type of boat one, lucky never fall into the sea ah! The "rescue" boat was overcrowded with many people (original passengers + passengers from my boat) so the boat "captain" had to go more than his usual stops.
Last time I watch TV, I see people go up ship like very song... When I saw the ship I was going to board... I a bit also not song...
I thought the ship got lift or escaloator one but then they don't have... They only have a small ladder at the side for me to climb up. Wah lau eh!?!
When I reached to top of the ladder, I thought maybe like cruise like that... Got 美女 say, "欢迎光临!" - Got sai ah... The sailor ask me something-something in what I think is Burmese... Wah lau eh!?! I where got know how to speak Burmese!?! I pass the documents to the Master (I also don't know why they cannot call him captain must call him master...) then ask him chop and sign my D/O then I siam...
Wah lau eh!?! Climbing up the ladder not so bad lah... But when I want to climb down that time... Siao liao! The sea and the ship at least got a few storeys high... I see already a bit siam sai. Then when I reach the bottom of the ladder, must do a bit of Indiana Jones and jump onto the awaiting sampan... Hosay!
The motorboat go to the other ships to "collect" passengers, so by the time we reach shore already tee or or... I thought I was lucky because I need to fetch some Bangla crew to Pasir Panjang Hotel so my boss let me drive the van.
I asked all the ah neh to get into the back and then start the company van. Like sandfly like that, where got light, I drive towards it. Mana eh zai drive half way, I kena dead end then I reverse the van, the van like sinking like that... Aiyo! Van kena stuck in fine sand!
Bo pian lah... Ask all the Bangla ah neh tolong-tolong push the van... This is first time I work so closely with Bangla ah neh but very impressed lah... They do work can sing song one... Like some kind of "加油" song like that!
Steady lah!
But even if they sing lik Sky Wu also no use because the back wheels still stuck and the more I accelerate the van sink even further! (The van is RWD one.) I thought want to take photograph to post but ahm mee mee the Bangla ah neh don't smile I also cannot see them how to take photo!?!
Anyway, must really say "Thank You!" to this band of Bangla ah neh... Actually the exit just 200 metres away, they can just say bye-bye to me, walk out, take taxi to Pasir Panjang Hotel but they steady-steady one...
One of them pattern more than badminton... He and another kaki run to the nearby Hyundai construction site and then came back with wooden planks. Then the whole group of Bangla ah neh push the van up the plank and into safety.
Hosay!
Mr Uru and your gang of Bangla ah neh... if you are reading my AoTLM blog, I want to say again thank you... Even the 101 Tiger beers cannot buy back the friendship and camaraderie that we shared. Hosay!
