The Route of our daily commute.

Just want to share the journey we take every day getting to work. These are the tracks of our daily commute, approximately 100km one way. Leave home at around 5.45 am while the road is still deserted and the day is still dark.

I took this picture when we saw the moon was very bright at 5.45am in the morning. I've never seen a moon as bright as this before. Very beautiful.

We usually continue our journey while taking it easy and absorbing our surrounding. Here is when we reached the double lane Tutong Highway. Up to here the journey was usually smooth, no stress but it will be over soon when we reached the end of this road.

The one lane Telisai road begins. This is where the headache starts, every day. There are so many cars queueing. And its even worst if we are late, which we always try to avoid, considering the circumstances.


We reached Sungai Liang juncture. We were early and the police traffic still hasnt come otherwise here is where the long queue is. On some bad days, the queue will be until Sg Paku after Telisai. If we are early, it is not so bad.


The area where BMC is. The double lane starts again and we can have a sigh of relief.

The road along Lumut Bypass. If we are early no problem. Its smooth sailing. This road is good except for the absence of lighting. Its so dark at night and can be very dangerous. In fact this stretch of road has claimed so many lives. Day time no problem. Early in the morning is so peaceful and look at the clouds forming. Its different every day.

Almost reaching the Anduki juncture. Dangerous road where there is a U-turn where sometimes careless people just make a U-turn without thinking. Got to be careful.

Accidents are a common occurance if you travel long distance like we do.

Some road along the Anduki road is still under construction. It has been going on for a few months. They are widening the road. And this road is bumpy too. Hopefully they will be able to solve the bumpiness.
We have our very own Detour like in the Amazing Race! This is along Jalan Tengah where we have to have a detour to reach our office. They are repairing a bridge over there so we have to use Jalan Utara instead. It was chaos at first where all the cars have to use this road to go to Kuala Belait but its getting better these days. Discipline people!

We are almost reaching our office. This is along Jalan Utara near the Panaga Health Centre. You know where you are when you seen one of this! The nodding donkey, our oil and gas symbol.

The Panage Health Centre.


Our BSP Head Office surau. Its very near to our office built especially for BSP staff.

This is where we usually park our car. This is around 7pm when we reach our office. Alot of people already in but not from my department!

My office!!!... And no body here yet.
Usually i am the first to arrive and i live in Bandar almost 100km from here. The rest live around KB or Seria. How lucky they can leave home at 6.45am or something to reach office. Some even arrive around 8.00am!
