2. Tim’s Q&A for Lambang Hidup Reunion. 3rdOct2024 1) Explain how you end up in LH, Year, Dept , Manager/Supervisor, Period? I was with Mattel Prai back in 1983 and joined LH in 1984 as a Test Technician under Bob Anderson as my interest was in Electrical and Electronics. Later I moved to Facilities Dept. under Saw Kean Tai reporting to Stephen Wong & KH Lee. I also worked on automating the Conveyor System to detect and swing the product to the Operator.

3. Tim’s Q&A for Lambang Hidup Reunion. 3rdOct2024 2) What inspires you to take the challenge for bike riding Penang to London It started when Mr Lim Bak Kau (BMW Motorbike Manager) on March 2015 called me to attend a planning meeting in Penang 'To ride to London Downing St. on just a small second hand Kapcai Motorbike ’ . I declined the invitation as I do not have a Kapcai motorbike and also I don’t have the budget and I had a Seminar Training going on in the Philippines that week.

4. Tim’s Q&A for Lambang Hidup Reunion. 3rdOct2024 He postponed the meeting and called me again the next Saturday, persuading me to attend as he needed a Technical Man in the meeting. He then told me that he had got me a second hand bike and assured me that this trip will be on a shoe string, camping most of the time and cooking our meals on the way. He then assured me that budget for the whole trip is only USD 3K and planned duration is 6 months at most.

5. Tim’s Q&A for Lambang Hidup Reunion. 3rdOct2024 I then whatpps my family chat group that Im invited to attend a Planning Meeting at Touratech , Penang to ride to London. My very supporting wife at IAB Enstek , Negeri Sembilan at that time saw the whatpps and she replied , D, if you want to go, I can support you with some Finance. My eldest daughter studying in the UK at that time replied. Daddy, Go! You are not young anymore and opportunity do not come twice!

6. Tim’s Q&A for Lambang Hidup Reunion. 3rdOct2024 My second daughter studying at AIMS, Bedong that time relied. Daddy, Don’t worry about the house maintenance, I will drive back every week and mow the lawn when the grass is long. My youngest son studying in a secondary school at Jitra replied, Daddy, Don’t worry about fetching me to school and back, I will car pool with my good friend. It was with all these strong family support I had, that I went to the Planning meeting and got hooked and cannot opt out.

7. An Ultimate journey to ride to London started when Mr BK Lim wanted to full fill his dream of a lifetime, ie 'To ride to London Downing St. from Downing St. Penang on just a small CC Motorbike’ . 24 Countries,18,290 KM, 4Mth 11days & 6 3/4 hrs BK . Lim then invited one of his Biker friend and we proceeded with the planning meeting at Touratech. A husband & wife couple heard of this and wanted to join the ride too.

8. Later another Biker was interested and called 2 more of his friends to tag along too. The group grew from 8 to 9 with a very elderly Biker joining to support Mr BK Lim. 24 Countries,18,290 KM, 4Mth 11days & 6 3/4 hrs
