Delivery In Great Patience




Delivery a letter to an office or a house in a housing estate is no big problem. However, to deliver parcels to a kampong setting is not simple.


I was asked to deliver two parcels to a kampong called Balik Bukit, with a house number and a phone contact.

First i must travel from NT to that area---- which is NOT under NT services,near to Junjong, a no man service zone. By right it is Kulim serving.


Next i need to call up to get an idea where the kampong is all about. i manage to locate the enterance, the junction with a small signboard. Driving into the kampong, with no road name,of cource, I need to ask around. Our consignee was kind enough to ride his bike to look for me. He took me to his house.


The parcels were delivered. wow! Just hope you folks understand it is not easy to deliver mails and parcels in my area. Please bear with us if there is any delay.


Service is still our business but to get the support and understanding from network members is an encouragement to our hard work.Not pouring cold waters please.

Packing for Chemical

Of late some of you are sending chemical through courier services. By right it should not be. Chemical and any other dangerous poison must be specially packed and to be transported by specially arranged transportation.

Once upon unloding from the line haul lory, the poor quality carton box gave way and the glass container broke when hit the road. Fume and hurting smell choked my men. The chemical also melted the road surface. Without further thought we nuetralised it by pouring lots of water to it. (Wrong way of treating a spilled chemical,of course.)

Of late, my lory driver suffer allergy due to leakage of chemical he was carrying. Thus we have decided, either chemical is packed strongly, otherwise, we will not deliver in a bonded truck. Clients must collect from office.

First Time In this Life-time











Gula is NOT under NTB service coverage. However, due to some urgency, client requested our Premium Service---- a sure reach arrangement. Of course we have a special charge for such services.
Can you imagine, it was my first visit to Kuala Gula...a colony of fishermen along the river near to the river mouth flowing into the Straits of Malacca.
Along the way you can see how some Kuala Kurau fishermen breed their prowns and fishes. When I reached the end of the road, I wondered where to find the consignee. He was out. Some how he got his family member to lead me to the house. My van was getting along the narrow pathway between two rows of houses. I managed to deliver the parcel on time.
