Pesta Raja-Raja 2009@Kuching Waterfront and our Decorated Boat (Kapal Berhias)
So far this is the biggest project i ever had in my life for HARWOOD TIMBER company for the festival called Pesta Raja-Raja 2009, its challenging, interesting and risky, because all of us are trying our best to work smart within the budget given by the company, and the duration of time is 6 days... 6 days to complete everything. But we are enjoy working together under hot sun, and now i got sunburn!
The Process
The designs is printed out on tapoline(the material that advertising company usually use for the banner, bunting or billboard printing) In order to make the design more striking, we apply artistic touch on it, touch up everything, highlight and remove some unnecessary part.!
Artistic touch on Rafflesia
The Rugged Artistic Hornbill head, we called it "Burung Kenyalang Jantan" (the male hornbill) hahaha...
The full body of the boat, an artistic Hornbill figure and Sarawak traditional motif design together with the wording "Sarawak Maju Dalam Malaysia".

Its very hot when working over there, no shelther and no toilet, the boat we using is a fishing boat, the captain is friendly, will find one day go to sea fishing with him and his gang. By the way... The adventure is just started, the designers, the carpentry and the electrical team are doing well in thier own part.
Cutting the wood, hurting fingers and cramped my hands.
The carpentry people from RTM at work, they are very concentrating when they do thier work.

Fixing the light around the edge of the wording and the motif design.

Constructing the design on the boat... Man... its very dangerous without the crane.
But we made it!!
Unfortunately, the crane is busy with other bussiness on the 1st two days, and our working process is very slow when comparing to others, everything is carry by hands!!
The carpentry are making sure that the wood structure is strong enough to support the huge design and also make sure everything is stable.
There... its me touching up the neck of hornbill.
One-sided completed
Rudy, one of the carpentry, friendly person, he likes to fool around with hokkien, muhahahahha... 
Finally, the crane from Feima Advertising is here, and the working process is getting fast.

Its time to say "phew", because everything is done on time!! everyone of us were gather in the boat to maintain the condition, and the ship is ankle in the middle of the river waiting time to pass. Now... The echo sounds system are joining us, installing the speaker and vedio.
