-SELAMAT TINGGAL FADASON-

30/12/2009:last surprised

It’s quite a surprised day.

Why? Because I have been told last minute there’s another important inspection will be held today. And the funny thing is everybody didn’t know about this including my advisor which is also Project Manager and Mr. Tiagarajah, the Site Manager.
Today’s inspection involved DBKL as authority and Indah Water. The inspection today mainly focusing on drain, and water connection system and unfortunately for us, because there’s a problem regarding FHSB’s water pump system.

The water can’t function well because a few days before there’s a float problem happens on the area. The float can’t affect the system but its affect here because there’s some short circuit happened. We try to make the authority understand regarding the problem and as a result they are willing to tolerate this time. As a consequence, we must submit a full report regarding this destruction and make sure it not happens in the future.

29/12/2009:submit new site's plan

Due to our last meeting with Mrs. Azizah from Civil Engeneering Department of Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur today I’m intend to submit the approval of site’s plan. The site’s plan is contain Damai Terrace, Fadason Park.


Me and Ms. Suhaina went to her office at DBKL, Jalan Raja Laut and submitted the plan. She satisfied with all the amendment. After meets her, me and Ms. Suhaina went back to office to prepare some stuff related to tomorrow’s inspection.

28/12/2009:the story continued..

Today there’s another inspection held as it promised, as before the authority and all the staff of FHSB that involved join the inspection.

For today, the inspection held in order to conclude the last inspection. An observation continued in every aspect of building. There is also TNB’s staff involved because to check the ground maintenance of the electricity supply. We walk along the project’s site and there are many stories here. The authority seems satisfy with the current progress and we manage to do well in explaining the concept and specification of the building.

As the conclusion, the authority satisfied with the current progress of the shop lot and the work of construction will continued until the dateline. A good story is we also get the building CF officially today.

24/12/2009:shop lot oh my shop lot

An inspection will be held today.

The inspection was held by Dewan Bandaraya Kuala Lumpur (DBKL) and my team and I also involved. In additionally, it’s not like a last inspection but it is an inspection before the last inspection come about.






The main purpose of this inspection is to check whether the interior division of the shop is qualified or not. So the authority will make the decision after the inspection. In the inspection, there’s also a thing that we can consider as slight problem that awaken from the authority. But the company can do a little amendment of that part in exact last dateline. But the inspection still not finished yet thus it will be continued 28th December due public holiday.

23/12/2009:observe free spaces

As I arrived at the office as always I try to finish yesterday’s work. The whole day I will works outside. This is because I’m intending to complete some observation work that related with the Project Department. Between the developed lands, there’s a space about to be planned to construct another facilities to the resident. The facilities suggested are a motorcycle parking, house guard, big trash places or else. So me and my friend went there to see whether it is suitable or not. In this case, the type of land must also we considered in order to avoid anything that risk happen in the future. Here, I would like to shares with everybody the figure of the land







After complete with taking the picture of it we came back to office and issued it to the Project Manager, Mrs. Zaliza who is also my advisor

22/12/2009:NINE days left for me

Now is 22st December, means it is only NINE days left me here ;(

As you know street lighting facilities is also one of responsibility to developer. After the project is finish the street lighting facilies will be claim and all the bills will charge to the government through the authority. But before it has been took over, the developer must be in charge with anything related it.





So today I asked by my advisor, Mr. Zaliza to go to the local TNB’s which is TNB Kepong to settle this thing. I went there with her assistant, Ms. Suhaina. As we reached there, we went to the main counter and explain what the main purpose we came and then we started talking. After a few sessions, the TNB’s officer guide us very well and there’s a few form needs to be filled up.

From my understanding, the government also can take over the electricity system if all the electric cable is approve. So when we come back to the office, we explain and requested the Site Manager, Mr. Tiagarajah to do a finalized inspection on the system. This thing is important in order to get a feedback from TNB.



For your information, TNB is stands for Tenaga Nasional Berhad and it is the only one company that supplies the electricity control all over the country. That’s all for today.

21/12/2009:inspect me!

There’s a main entrance as you entered the FHSB’s office. The Marketing department has placed a floor plan prototype a few of unit sale or we can say like sampling houses in the glass. So today I’m captured a video so everybody can watch.




For your information, today my lecturer from my college will come to inspect me at the office. So that I’m given some space and quite free today. After arrived, my lecturer come to visit me, asked basic question such as how my intern then he just before to meet my advisor. To be honest, I’m completely nervous and pray everything will be all right. His smiley faces after the meeting ease me so much.
He seems to be very well with the meeting and satisfied with everything. After has permission from my advisor, I take the opportunity to drive him around the project’s site and narrative him about the company and current issues.

Today is Saturday.
Yesterday, I’m working outside but today most of the time I spent in the office. Because of the sales manager, Mrs. Vivien no longer works here, the sales work became quite difficult to handle. So I hand some help and Im about to make the update of the sales. The sales things hard to understand and I find there’s a lot of number. I hate numbers. Unfortunately, I still intend to help them.
There’s a lot of files have to be update. This is because; the year end is just around the corner so all the account must be update in order to create an annual report. Today I decide to do it as fast as I can and as a final outcome I finished about four projects to be updated.

11/12/2009:friday,love it

Its Friday now and how time flies.
I arrived as usual and punched card at 830a.m. After I had my breakfast, I started to do my works. I reviewed files and jotted down some notes about my internship. After few hours, Mrs.Zaliza had asked me to accompany her to Damansara to settle some problems regarding residence society.



That place is known as KPKT, which stands for Kementerian Perumahan dan Kerajaan Tempatan. As we arrived there, we went straight to Jabatan Perumahan Negara(JPN), Department of KPKT.





As we waited for about half an hour, finally we get to meet with the person in charged. My adviser, Mrs. Zaliza told her about the problems that the residence facing. The discussion took about one hour. I took the opportunities to learn and gain more knowledge and experiences related the matters. After that, we headed back to the office.
