14th October 2022 Friday - conversations with Soon Yong


 A busy end of the week for everyone. Fiona and I had to see a planning officer who questioned the storey heights of our office park project. He turned out to be quite patient, and we arrived at a good compromise after our explanations about rain water harvesting. Sean, Melvin and Freddie went to Kuching North Council when Melvin outshone the other 2 in his familiarity with submission requirements.  At 11, we zoomed with our client in New Zealand and the engineers showed that they have started thinking about our project. PH sat in which was good. 

The highlight of the day was a conversation with Soon Yong, who was obviously still missing his intern and talking to me about her, and Olson Kundig. He noticed that I listened to China rock bands and introduced me to Hokkien rock bands. He mentioned that his work is slowly down and his partners have changed paths. I must ask him which paths, it sounds like quite a challenge for him. I'll try to meet up with him in November. He's a good guy.
