Eastwood GC 15th Feb - GY enjoy angpow, Shahbudin back nine collapse



News Headline
1. Hj Yusof out of slump
2. BMMJ players enjoy CNY over the border
3. Bpk Presiden jadi ATM
4. What will the year of the Tiger bring to BMMJ players

Wish my Chinese friends and readers a Happy New Year. Hope that this year will bring more joy, health and prosperity.

1. GY collected angpow from nearly all of us as he returned a score of 93 gross and nett 73 to beat Hj Zairin (74 nett) and Yunos Abdullah (75 nett). Happy for you Yoi. The result pushed him up the leaderboard to joint fourth. ALthough Jang Zairin pakai baju and topi maang, was not enough to beat GY.

2. Taking advantage of the long weekend, BMMJ players descended on Eastwood Valley GC in Miri Sarawak. Greens were quick and the hot weather became a factor in some of the players performance as some players were unable to cope with the extreme heat.

3. Hj Shahbudin unfortunately became Jurubayar Agung this weekend as three double pars over the last four holes (#15, #16 & #18) put paid any hope of catching Hj Sam on top of the leaderboard. Fortunately for us, Hj Sam pun buruk main after initially birdieing two of the first three holes.. hehe

4. Signs indicate this will be an exciting year for BMMJ players.
a. The race for BMMJ champion is heating up.
b. Hj Sam's farewell retirement golf trip in Q4 (Jangan saja kerja til 60)
c. BMMJ first Major Tournament in April
d. Healthy turnout at every game
e. Establishment of BMMJ committee
f. Bangkok and Chiangmai trip

Indeed, i look forward to many more birdies, pars, ATM's performance & foreign trips in the coming months and years ahead.

Summary:
None of the leaders made a move this weekend as "GY" Hj Mohd Yusof climbed to joint 4th after his win while Hj Md Zairin (2nd) and Yunos (3rd) pushed their way up the leaderboard as well. Well done to the weekend winners... As a result of winning last weekend, GY's handicap is reduced by a stroke to 18... Baik main mu Yoi... As it stands.. Its getting tight and heating up at the top... with just 300 points separating 1st and 4th and only 100 points separating 4th and 8th... Panas.. panas just like the sizzling Brunei weather..

Super Sam does it again!!!! 78 gross ohh...

Many congrats to Jang Sam with his glorious 78 gross on Saturday 13th 2010 at RBA GC. Victims were Yunos, Hj Shahbudin and Hj Rahim... Hj Rahim by the way walked away "honourless" from the game... Hehe... bukan sanang cari makan ohh...
SELAMAT DUIT AKU....baik jua nda main... Welcome to the 70's club Jang Sam...

Birdie here... Birdie there... Birdie everywhere: Lexus Trophy & Feb Medal

Hj Zairin and Latif complain... Their birdies were not highlighted... So guess editors were the two gents... In their own words...

Hj Mohd Zairin - Wali Kota Bandung
Lexus Trophy duel with Orang pencen
" The story is this.... 2 strokes swing on hole# 12 (Flight 12B) where we started, next hole 1 stroke swing and even on par 3 hole no. 14, Both me and G2 Parred the hole. So I am still up..... Ia liat muka ku and say "eh banar2 jua kau kan mengalahkan kediaku ani yoi"..... membari kesian ah????? pride is so important but again...... kalau ia kalah nada lagi G2 mau main sama kitani... nada apa aku pancing ia to play........

To be honest - his drive occassionally saja ia overdrive akulah and one thing I salute him he acknowledge that.....

Back to Hole 15 Par 5, my Tee-Shot and 2nd Shot so beutiful... 3 shot pulled to the left and almost OB'ed.... the beginning of lost of controlled... from bunker to bunker and ended with 12 strokes..... I see his face there is a smile of Hope to win against me.... he clawed back and take the control of the battle... but I am not really given up not until par 3 Front 9 - Hole # 4 - Pulled my ball to the left and into the bush... score 6 strokes... after that nothing is going right for me...

Birdie
"Birdie on Hole# no. 4.... on same hole Abd Latif masok dicelah2 pokok inda keluar2 - HOLE in 2.. .... ha.... ha...."

Abd Latif - or in some parts of Jakarta he is called Pak Latif Hamengkuwibowo
"Jang Budin and Zairin saksi ah...... hehehe, walaupun score teruk tapi birdie tetap birdie yoi...... lagi pun sporting spirit mau tau....... (golf balls hilang banyak boleh di beli tapi a birdie can only be earned !!!)

Feb Medal - Prize presentation Pt. 2




Almost forgot, Jang Zairin was fourth... As nobody won the NTP on the long par 3 #14 so we decided to give it to the fourth position... Nda mau-mau kan ikut bergambar tah jua... While I was busy counting my winnings of the day... but recycled back to Hj Sam and Zairin...

Feb Medal - Prize presentation




Hj Shahbudin, as defending Champion of Jan Medal gave away the prizes while Hj Samuil gave away the prizes for Novelty winners...

More Pictures from Feb Medal




Many thanks to Walid for taking the photos... Ahem so I strongly endorsed you to naik handicap... Hj Sam is still stretching?! Padan tah baik main...

Hj Samuil top of the pop & new Order of Merit Leader

News Headline - 6th February 2010

1. Jang Samuil wins February Monthly Medal
2. Newcomer Hj Rahim finishes runner-up
3. Where is orang pencen?
4. BMMJ welcomes new members
5. Three amigos birdie
6. Jang Samuil secret formula
7. BMMJ games ahead
8. Handicap revision

1. Hj Samuil carded a gross score of 86 and nett 72 to win the BMMJ February MM OCB from new BMMJ member Hj Abd Rahim at the RBA GC. Aided by a new (nda mau bagitau) "Senior" driver Cleveland 12.5 deg (Launcher?) ordered online from Edwin Watts. Congrats to Jang Sam and with this win moves him to the top of the pops. Jang Sam new handicap is now 13.

According to Jang Sam when I asked him which of the Cleveland drivers he bought HIBORE XLS or Launcher? "Emmm antah... Yang Baru" sengaja nda mau bagitau or Jang Sam having one of his blonde moments... emm i think now kes kedapatan tua.. But anyway, manang jua olehnya... Kitani bah tu..

2. Well known DRM member and now also BMMJ golfer, Hj Abd Rahim stormed to a gross 94 and nett 72 to finish runner up. Based on this weekend's performance, I am sure he will challenge strongly for the title.

3. Berlayar ke Bangkok mencari kain,
Ta jumpa Jang Manan sama bininya,
Kalau sudah tau nada visa kan main,
Bagitau awal jangan kami tertanya-tanya.

4. Hj Sufri Sulaiman DOP & Hj Rahim Matusin HLD joined the tournament and automatically become members of BMMJ. Please join me in welcoming them.

5. Hj Samuil, Yusof Johan and Hj Rahim recorded birdies on #2, #3 & #4. Many congrats on this achievement. Main umban kali eh... hehe

6. Jang Sam secret will be outed soon...

7. BMMJ upcoming games
a. 13 Feb - BMMJ official game, venue PMGC (tentative)
b. 23 Feb - Saney Halim farewell (Pls contact Hj Zairin for details)
c. 24 Feb - Thailand trip (Jang Shahbudin, Jang Manan, Kap Amir, Jang Latif, Yoi Hj Ibrahim BGC & Bahreen)
d. 7 Mac - BLNG golf farewell for Abd Latif
e. 13 Mac - March MM and Abd Latif farewell

8. Hj Samuil - 13
Abd Walid - 36
Abd Latif - 32

Although most members voiced their opinion during lunch that Hj Rahim should also be reduced by a stroke as he also scored a nett 72, I felt that it would not in the spirit of the group. In addition, he did finish runner-up and being a new member of the group felt that it was a bit harsh. Hence, I would propose that his handicap remains 22.

Personal note: Win against Jang Budin, draw lawan GY but loss to Jang Sam and Yoi Zairin (after 7/7 ohh..)

Fast food




Swordfish anyone? Took this photo after buying fish at Jerudong fish market.. Would look nice over the fireplace... Not sure what it taste like... Does anyone ever tried to eat? Drop me a buzz....

Unagi.. On the other hand.. is simply Oishi.... I try to have a dish when im in Tokyo... The Japanese is so efficient that they even serve the bone which is very tasty.. strange as it sounds...

Dont think I want that MB S class after all....



Walking back to the hotel after a business dinner, came across this... wait for it... TOKYO TAXI... Toyota Crown? Wrong... Nissan Fuga? Wrong.... Its a AMG MERCEDES BENZ S55 with full bodykit nicely thrown in.... HUHHH??? Dont think I want to buy a Merc for the rest of my life... unless of course somebody will be kind enough to buy it for me...
