I have arrived in Sandakan at Lee Kun’s house. It is a big family here, Lee Kun and his wife, his 2 parents, 3 children, 4 dogs and 5 cats. Not to mention this also being the workplace where all the engines are built so the 2 assistants (Ah B and Lim) are here during the day too.
I helped out cleaning engine parts, I can appreciate how much effort went into building the engine I purchased from Lee Kun now. Read the rest! \(^u^)/ →
