Stockholm 10-11 November 2005

My sub-contractor cum consultant decided to invite the government people to a ‘technical visit’ in Denmark. Two Pengarahs came for the visit together with the local staff, Chai (and his wife) and myself, as the main con.

The Pengarahs decided that they want to visit Stockholm first for ‘sight-seeing’ before proceeding to Copenhagen (typical of them). Our itinerary submitted to the government was therefore different than the actual.

I left KLIA 10th morning and arrived late in the evening.

Below are the pics in Stockholm. Date : 11 Nov 2005

One of the buildings at the Palace area. Note a cannon ball on the wall. History said due to a coup that happened in the old days.
