Bandung HR gathering

Just got some pictures from last month gathering in Bandung. I actually brought my own pocket cam, but Adit (this is all your fault Dit!!!!) accidentally switched the camera to 'video mode' and as result: all the picture i have was minutes of shaking video..

This was the starting point... (my office)
we took a bus from here to Bandung.


In my bus (since there were actually 4 buses heading to bandung at the time). Please notice, the red uniform we were wearing at that day was not the same with daily uniform we have.


We call this meeting with 'Open space meeting' where we can walk here and there, giving some suggestion, wrote some topics, and let people put some comments on yours, or you can just standing on the corner and enjoying the coffee.




Lets skip the meeting part..
Me and my buddy on the gathering night..


We're staying at a brand new hotel in Bandung named Blahblah.. or somethin.. I have to say that they have s cozy style with minimalist and modern line. They have numbers of meeting room, that's a point for them to gather a specific market: Business people and corporate. The room was also okay, they have King size bed, flatscreen TV, Ac and nice bathroom with outstanding amenities. Overall, sorry to say but i cannot suggest any of you to come again or pick this hotel for your short stay in Bandung.. Why?

I can't stand for the food. It was terrible. i mean it.
For a four star hotel with 750,000 IDR per night (i checked the rate on their website) we deserve better than chicken wings with extra blood (Eeeeewww...!!)

When it came to the cellebration night, we have band and soundsystem setup. On the third song the electricity was suddenly off!!! And the 'boooo sound' coming from all the audince, it was only few seconds until the electricity trouble solved, but then, again, the same trouble came again and again, it was occured probably five times!!!! OMG.. This is suppose to be a four star hotel, don't they have a generator set to backup electricity problem??

Most of the participant go for another fun time in Bandung, the night was long and it was an opportunity to relax.. Some of them went to carry on karaoke or clubbing, or just hang-out in 24 hour coffee cafe. Me? I stayed at the hotel.
I was bloody tired and prefer a cartoon show or something at AXN or HBO to watch. The remote control was on my hand but nothing appear on that flat TV screen except a blank blue screen!!!!

Actually we also had this race called 'Cultural Race', it was like Amazing race as seen on TV, but we customized the racing area to smaller scope. I don't have the racing pictures except this one, at the zoo (the starting point:
