菲律賓之行第一天
到了菲律賓,來到位於大馬尼拉區奧地嘉市(Ortigas City)的兩年前住過的Crown Plaza Galleria Manila,對附近街道的印象,卻大部分還是得從頭開始。
出國前一天的11號,晚上完全沒睡,回家收拾行李,又很愚蠢的在還沒先記下密碼鎖號碼的情況下,就把全總送的旅行箱給鎖起來了。短短三個號碼,我試了半個多小時,鎖卻仍然文風不動,不得已只好放棄,改用舊的行李箱,但不幸的是時間也因此延誤了許久。隨便收了東西,把手提電腦和相機包都塞了進去,沖了個澡,趕緊出去叫計程車。出門時已經超過八點,唯一的選擇就是直接叫計程車到機場了。
In Miyazaki, Japan for the 2004 World Congress of ICFTU
I’m right now in the internet cafe in the Sheraton Ocean Hotel. I came to Japan yesterday after an urgent demand by my boss that I come as his representative to participate in the ICFTU 2004 World Congress in Miyazaki.
確定不帶notebook去了
前天Hotel le Dôme迅速的回覆了我的傳真詢問,但是並未清楚的告訴我到底他們房間裡的網路連線速度有多慢,以及到底要多少錢,所以剛剛我又傳真了一封短信過去:
Hotel le Dôme
很荒謬的,週一晚上,短短兩三個月內,我要第三次出國開會。這次是到布魯塞爾,也是我首次到一個舊地重遊的外國都市。
My Unbelievably Crazy Trip
Guess where I am? Singapore? No. I’m in the Dubai International Airport, where I’ll still have to wait for more than seven hours before my flight to Istanbul, Turkey. It’s totally different from my original plan, for I made a big mistake.
下一站:土耳其伊斯坦堡
是的,我又將要遠行了,如果這兩天準備的工作沒出差錯、沒在最後一刻被要求留下的話。這次是到土耳其,代表我老闆參加ICFTU-APRO的第十三次區域指導委員會議(13th Regional Steering Committee Meeting)。會議在26、27號兩天,但為了要全程參加,我就必須搭24號的飛機過去,29號的飛機回,中間都要經過新加坡轉機、並在杜拜加油。這將是我第一次造訪西亞、也是第一次到回教國家。
在新加坡
在老闆臨時授意之下,我代表他來到新加坡參加ICFTU-APRO的”財務與一般事務會議”。此刻我人正在位於Anson Road上的M Hotel旅館房內,用著公用的電腦,就像如同幾個月前朋友和社團學妹sunshine一樣,享受著快速但非常昂貴的連線服務。我這次碰到的費用居然還比她更貴上一倍,一天要新加坡幣35元,約合台幣693元!住兩天,就一千多塊了。
In the Internet Room of the Villa Ocean View Hotel
Yes, Here I am, sitting in frong of the only computer inside the internet room of the Villa Ocean View Hotel, using the dial-up internet connection to blog. Although it’s only a dial-up connection though a telephone line, the speed is much faster than I imagined. In Taiwan, the dial-up connection through […]
Before departing to Sri Lanka
Still in the Changi Airport now, but will get on the flight to Colobo soon.
In Changi Airport…
I’m in the Free Internet Corner in the Chani Airport in Singapore. It’s so easy to find it, it’s just right in the front on the way out of the way from the plane. The amazing thing is that is totally free! And each computer is equipped with Windows XP and has […]
出發至斯里蘭卡前夕
明天下午,我將代表我老闆,搭機前往斯里蘭卡,中間經新加坡轉機,參加國際自由工聯(ICFTU, International Confederation of Free Trade Unions)亞太區分會(ICFTU-APRO, ICFTU-Asia and Pacific Regional Organization)的執委會。
