There we were on a Saturday morning in downtown Kuching
Four colleagues – brothers-in-arms – ready for our next adventure!
The opportunity to bask in the boundless beauty of a sunrise
Taking in the fresh morning air – a perfect start to the weekend!
Energised by a hearty breakfast, we embarked on a voyage of discovery
Mother Nature showcased her gifts during our drive from Kuching to Simanggang
The breathtaking scenery unfolded before our eyes – truly, a visual feast!
We were enveloped in a sense of serenity – the feeling of being at one with nature!
On arrival in Simanggang, we make a beeline for Sarawak Skills Sri Aman
A red-carpet welcome by our colleagues – the start of our adventure in the Sri Aman division!
Our thanks to our gracious hosts from Advansia (Sarawak) Sdn Bhd for the invitation
A special day for us – a guided tour of rice bowl areas, with a focus on the use of modern technologies.
A tour covering our host’s rice cultivation areas/farm and rice mill in Tanjung Bijat, Sri Aman
Followed by a tour of the seed production farm in Stumbin, Sri Aman – an eye-opening experience!
Yes, the fields of green and gold are priceless treasures – a living canvas of vibrant colours!
A day well spent – to experience firsthand Sarawak’s noble quest to boost rice self-sufficiency.
