Wyeth Gala Dinner

We were surprised when we came to the restaurant. The management and the tour agency people were getting ready for an award presentation ceremony..

The ballroom was specially decorated for the occasion.

All the ladies were supposed to wear like this. All of us got the scarf free.

The ceremony began..

with speeches from the boss and managers.

the Wyeth management

Cheers!

My sister was lucky enough to get a gift from Wyeth.

It's for our company.

I received a gift from the tour agency for 'yum seng' the glass of red wine.

    this is a good strategy from the company.. this will make the reseller fight for more sales and be loyal to them.. which in turn make them earn bulks of money for this little investment.. :)

  22. [SK]March 19, 2013 at 10:42 AM

    so the prize for everyone is a carton of S26 milk?? hahahaha.. very hard-sell (and a little cheapo to me actually), i would have expected something else actually~~ :D

    I went to TESCO a few days ago and search for Wyeth S26 just to see the price tags! Wow! Not cheap and I could imagine how many cartons of boxes you had to sell to win a trip. That is a good brand anyway.

    I used to service Abbott Lab for few years and learnt so much about milk powders in Malaysia. I will share with you next time if we meet again as it would not be appropriate for me to write here. It was interesting facts.

      maybe it's a change of style as we didn't have the time to change. That's Greek style..

Twin bananas

Today this cute little darling visited me. His grandparents brought him over for the very first time. He's so cute as he smiled readily. I was tempted to carry him and he was fine with that. Some babies don't like strangers.  I carried him and kissed his cheek several times..So adorable. Without hesitation, I gave him an ang pow. his granddad put him on the table and I took a shot of him.. When I went back home in the evening, I realized that the bunch of bananas at the altar has ripen. I brought the bunch to my shop and shared with my people. There was this particular twin bananas and my worker wanted them. She peeled them and I could see that they were adjoined all the way down. Well, old wives tale has it that those ladies who ate them would give birth to twins in future..
