Good News....sad ending

Met my former boss who is now heading one of the co in Motor wing few weeks ago. I was told by someone that he needs an assistant. To me it is one in a life time opportunity and i am ready to grab and work with him.

After the short conversation, he called me a week after to offer me the post and last week spoke to HR head of the co. I think it is about time for me to explore new things within the same group but in another division.

Being the smallest team in the department, only 5 of us in the funding team make us very close to each other. My mind told me that i should accept the offer from my former boss but part of my heart wants me to be here with this small tiny team. After having some words with my dear husband, i decided to move on and join the former boss.

Unfortunately, there was a very serious thing happened last week which one of the senior in the team had to leave for another department. It was chaotic as we are shorthanded and my boss was not in a good condition. She was so sad and panic since past 2 weeks as the senior person is leaving the team and at the moment we won't be able to get a replacement.

On the other hand, me who wants to leave had to retract my decision as if i left at the same time, our team will be 'patah kaki'. I am so sad that i had to turn down the offer which i've been waiting for since he left the department to Motor division but maybe it is not my 'rezeki' to work with him.

Still thinking how should i tell him about this.................me is so stress now....aduiiiiiiii!!!!!!!!!!!

Mama is busy.........

I've been busy at work assisting my team to do a very big project which we called it project 'G'. So yesterday we had a signing ceremony on this big project.

Here are some news on the local newspaper. Pic will be posted soon as mama is so tired. I need a very good holiday.....mana mau pigi daa?? X pi holiday tp pi spa pon ok gaks :D

Lead managers sign pact for RM4.5b Islamic programmes

KUALA LUMPUR: Maybank Investment Bank Bhd, the lead arranger for Sime Darby Bhd’s Islamic debt issues that amounted to RM4.5bil, announced yesterday the signing of the programmes with joint lead managers CIMB Group and Public Investment Bank Bhd.

The programme was approved by the Securities Commission on Sept 24.

“The Islamic programme is structured based on the widely accepted Islamic finance principle of Musyarakah, which is very popular with local and international capital market players,” Maybank president and chief executive officer Datuk Seri Abdul Wahid Omar said in the statement.

He said the strength of the AAA-rated Islamic programmes reflect Sime Darby’s position as a leading conglomerate and the world’s largest listed oil palm plantation group.

He expressed confidence that investors would find the notes issued under the Islamic programmes a “premier investment and a valuable contribution to their bond portfolio and investment strategy.”

Proceeds from the exercise would be utilised to finance Sime Darby’s acquisitions and capital expenditure, working capital, as well as to refinance certain debts obligations.
