Of Money

Back from a trip to Bank Negara @ Central Bank today.
It was quite fun,
minus the travelling time and
'the-bus-driver's-stepping-on-gas-and-the-next-second-stepping-on-brake'
due to a jam caused by an accident on our way back.


Again, I must mention,
I hate that kind of 'shakiness due to almost-simultaneous stepping gas and brake'
If want to step gas, please continue for like some time before stepping on brake again.
Really beh tahan and wanted to vomit. >__<


Oh, and also minus the 'no-live-viewing-of-money-printing-process'
from the trip.
We thought we can at least view some stacks of $$ or part of the printing process live.
But,too bad, the operations are carried out not in M'sia.
Somewhere else lah.
But he showed us the video.
Alah, jadilah.


The outcome of the trip,
it makes me wanna work there
>_<
When we first arrive there,
we went to a lobby,
where we were then brought outside
following another route into another building.
Then, on our way,
Chicken and I were holding hands (wah, romanticnya)
lol.
We started to joke around:
'Maybe he's bringing us through the back door,
to the same spot in the lobby again'
etc.

We're like little kids,
going on educational tour,
back in schools it was lawatan sambil belajar.
Then chicken commanded :
'Hold your hands, dont get lost, put your finger on your lips'
like how guru pengirings would command back then.
I just couldn't even think or imagine
the group of us following the command
AT THIS AGE :\


We arrived,
not in the same spot in the lobby,
but in another '5-star-hotel-like' lobby.
Instead of receptionist at the reception desk,
there were police officers.
Toilet smells good.
lol

We're seated in an auditorium which could fill in about 200+
Given talks or briefings or speeches on the Central Bank(BNM) ,
its functions, some histories, currencies, money printing, counterfeiting.
Then one of the patpohs PP,
said : 'Maybe they would give us some $$ notes in the bag they gave us'.
LOL

around 1 hour plus speeches plus Q&A,
we left the auditorium to board the bus.
this time, we're not using the same route as how we got
to the building.
We went through the 'shortcut' in the building.
Ada shortcut rupa-rupanya.
which led us to the same spot in the lobby i mentioned earlier.!
i think the shortcut is for staff access only,
but okaylah, thank god it was raining that time,
so we could 'tumpang lalu'. lol


Now i know how much value of money i will get back
when i bring a cacat-ed (shrunk, tear, scribbled,soiled, etc)
money note back to BNM.
And no value will be given for a counterfeited money,
aka wang palsu, instead you may be diPENJARAkan jailed.
That makes it a better choice to spend it at the nearest pasar malam.
LOL.
JK a. dont say i teach you har. >_<


So, that's the trip to BNM and lesson learnt today ;]
