A Trip to Fulong

A Trip to Fulong

Shuinandong水, Jinguashi金 and Jiufen九 are regarded as the most popular tourist attraction in the North of Taiwan. This is final graduation traveling with this lovely class. Since I was assigned to India so that I could not complete the journey, finally I reach the final stage for this journey. We visited the Fulong International Sand Sculpture Festival to see the various and true-to life masterpiece. Later, we went to Jishan Old Street to visit the historic stair and house. It is a sunny and deserved day to keep in mind forever.

Although my main goal is for the One Piece, famous Japan animated cartoon, I still found out my favor picture, “Through The Eyes of Babies”. The subject of sand sculpture of the year is back to the childlike memory. In this picture, you could find out the view from the first role of a baby to see the world. It recalled when I was very young status. As a baby, the love from my parents and siblings compares to present me. I am not the baby who still relies on their taking care. I have became the one being able to feed back and take the responsibility to the family. This sculpture also reflects and make us to remember we have been real to dedicate to something we have desired. Finally, I found out my main goal for this traveling- One Piece. Although in the team nobody like me prefer to this piece, I still posture the gesture to express my joyful feeling for this art work. It is really amazing.

After visiting Fulong, we took the bus to Jiufen. We walked on the historic ladders and viewed the culture relics to experience the retro atmosphere again. No matter the weather is hot or cold, I always enjoy the taro balls. There is a high view where we can overlook whole Jiufen. We went to the old style of movie theater without leaving promptly due to its cooling air-conditioning. After gathering again, we took the bus back to the original hired bus to prepare to the next destination- Making of Wooden Wind Chimes(Bells). The final destination is close to the Jiufen. Just taking five minutes reach the location. The owner is a fun artist. Whole artists gathering there is to build their dream. The owner wear a T-shirt with two wording on it-不一. I asked the owner about the meaning. He responded that it means every thing or any way perhaps is different but the main goal is the same. After his teaching, we complete the wooden wind bells and used the tools to brand wording on it. I really like making of this kind of art piece. No matter it is ugly or not. We took the gathering pictures for whole classmates and then back to the home.

I am the lucky one who can know many new friends in this classroom. They are funny and have specific and unique personality. I need to specifically to appreciate Cherry. She assisted me from the beginning to know this class and make me love with it. Perhaps it is the time to spread out to everywhere. Perhaps someone will not see each other again. However, the valuable memory has been embedded in our mind. To meet these news friend is to prove that my decision is certainly right. I wish everyone who I knew in this room can reach their dream and initiate next step to face a brilliant and successful future.

China Dream

http://qz.com/89616/transformers-4-is-filming-in-china-because-it-will-nearly-double-the-movies-profit-there/

It is really meaningful. Yesterday I was back to Taiwan from China. That’s the first time that I step on the land. The first feeling is so unique. The host treated me so warming and hospitable. Let me feel that China is a good place to stay. I can imagine that why the people engulf to this land for seeking their dream just like the initial environment we face experience in the 1970s of Taiwan. Everywhere is the opportunity that you could grasp. Chinese people are so straight for facing everything. Even the cheater would like to cheat on you but, you can feel what he will do next. Big, crowded and dream is the feeling what I feel for this journey. I score it to 85(if perfect is 100) higher than I expected. But after that, I can sincerely comprehend that why others will try to connect with this island to pursue their big China dream. To be continued…

Suicide Bombers

http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-europe-22699156

In 2009, there were 500 bomb blasts happened in Pakistan. I think why they will addict to this issue due to the children education from their childhood. When they are so young, they have been trained to become suicide bombers. For example, Taliban now run their own school to cultivate these children to be what they want. They use the religious reason to preach these young children. As their growing up, the concept to be the horrible thing put into their mind and become the part of themselves. One of the children answered the situation after interviewing with a researcher, and he said that if God gives him the strength. He can do anything for God. Under this environment, the children even take the training for months of military training to study the machine guns. What I think the most evil is that the trainers require the young boys use the peer pressure to use these innocent to do what they want. It is really a horrible issue we should think about to help the boys who never know they on the wrong way.

The Phobition Reason

There are some critical reminding which shall be reminded again.

If the equipment shall be released and delivered to the site, vendor shall get the permit and approval from the client.

Otherwise, manufacturing and shipping are not acceptable.

As following items shall be fully completed.

1. Submittal document to get approval.

We need to get the approval for each design document 1 month before delivery.

If there is any document not yet to get the approval from TPC, the equipment shall be prohibited to release to delivery to the site.

That’s why I keep reminding you to submit the document. Every week’s reminding is not merely the reminding, it also means the record to record the pending situation.

Please expedite your design drawing’s and document’s submitted situation.

2. Inspection’s approval

IQP(Individual Quality Plan) is the foundation that make TPC to recognize whether the equipment can be inspected and tested.

Also, ITP is the base to define whether to witness or report as per specification and TPC’s comment.

Until IQP to define as approval(not only AEN), then vendor can start acting inspection and test.

Note: Motor is the main item to witness. (7.5KW and above for local; 187KW and above for oversea)

3. Material Certificate and Material Mill Test Report.

Material Certificate and Material Mill Test Report definitely shall be submitted to Client to get the approval before Shop Test.

If the certificate and report does not be get the approval by client, the manufacture is absolutely prohibited, which will influence the further inspection.

Liquidation and penalty fine is not the only method will be executed, but the equipment cannot be accepted to release and delivery is also the key point reason.

Please pay more attention on Submittal Document, Inspection and Material.

To China Survey

To China Survey

I have been assigned to Chine at the end of May. Originally, DPM Amy has been assigned with me. The duty is to survey ASH vendor’s engineering situation. Main topic is delivery schedule. The second is the document submittal. However, Amy has been assigned to LNG for instructing previous project by last week. That means I will be sole to act this journey. I shall arrange the agenda which shall be discuss with ASH vendor first. Also, I shall go there to check their engineers are available and suitable for our design requirement. Until now, I’m totally afraid of ASH vendor’s supporting. I will be sole to face this problem, but why I still would like to go there. Firstly, I would like to challenge myself whether I can be sole to survey the vendors, which can cultivate my personality to deal the issue on my own. Secondly, it is able to extend my view for the international concept. Thirdly, I am really curious that whether the vendor be the suitable response to support this project. That’s why I still need to be there to fight for future.

Agree Air Vendor to Postpone Delivery Schedule

Agree Air Vendor to Postpone Delivery Schedule

Due to the inspection test, vendor hope I can agree with them to postpone the delivery schedule. If I agree that, it probably will influence our whole schedule especially for construction team. However, if I cannot agree that, the positive vendor could be fined by our procurement team. Why I should help them? Because I can do them a favor, the personal relations can keep still. Perhaps, we could use this reason and acquire benefit from them. Firstly, if we could make this happened, one day due to the power from vendor who is familiar to the consultant cooperation’s manager, if we face any problem in the future, the vendor could assist us to solve the issues. Secondly, compare to other vendors, air vendor is more cooperative with our company. I sincerely would like to help the people who help us first. Thirdly, we have been to consultant’s office to discuss this issue. The one who is responsible for this item tells us the truth that they have not yet to negotiate with client to decide who has the ability to attend the inspection place. It is kind of way to pass our kind attitude to client for the future action. That’s why I think to postpone the delivery schedule is more benefit than not.

AHS Review Specification (Review 02)

AHS Review Specification (Review 02)


5. The nameplates shall not be painted over. Inscriptions and size shall be submitted to end user for approval before manufacture.

My duty: Not only for this package, whole package has the same status. I shall plan the submittal schedule and make whole vendors follow up.

6. All equipment and components contact with ash shall be abrasive resistant material unless otherwise specified.

My duty: This spec will impact a multitude of portion, especially for piping portion.

7. For DRS hoppers, each hopper shall have a minimum ash storage capacity of 12 hours of boiler operation at MCR.

My duty: It means that the capacity of air lock feeder’s control shall base on this design. This design condition shall remind equipment team to take care.

8. Each hopper shall be equipped with handwheel operated knife type isolating valve. The bodies and components which contact with ash of the valves shall be made of abrasive resistant material.

My duty: I shall remind vendor of using abrasive resistant material to meet this specification. Also, the handwheel operated knife type

9. The capacity shall exclude the time of transfer from one hopper discharge to the next in automatic operation, and shall mean the net capacity conveyed from the precipitator to the silo. The system shall be designed to permit either simultaneous operation of groups of hoppers, or operation of individual hoppers.

My duty: This requirement will deeply influence the P&ID (piping and instrument diagram). Vendor shall fix the P&ID and start purchasing separate equipment. However, the trick is that the concept of this control still under vendor’s design. We need to invite vendor’s American designer to the company to discuss and define this portion. Furthermore, the key word “permit” and “simultaneous” is a mist shall be clarified. If the designer can come to our office, I shall arrange a meeting to the consultant company for clarification.
