It’s
another day for the Project Orion IV team to continue where they stopped
yesterday.
Today Ben
and Waqiu did much better in their plastering of the toilet walls. However, the
weather did not seem to let up on the team. They were thankful that Abang Zamri
and Azam were there to provide their assistance. Today, it was the completion
of the interior walls of the toilet and the top portions of the exterior wall.
Ben and Waqiu helped to mix the plaster mixture too. But, the weather dealt
another uppercut with heavy rain for about an hour. That meant that they could
not continue their work on the toilet. They quickly resumed work as soon as the
rain stopped, and successfully completed the plastering. The rest of the toilet,
such as the roof top and the flooring, will be done by Abang Zamri and Azam.
Ben and Waqiu then headed back to the Pink House to assist Sijie, Kelvin and
Wei Yung on the painting.

Sijie,
Kelvin and Wei Yung got down to work after breakfast. They made quick work of
the paint job this time, as there were less grooves and hard to reach areas,
unlike Pak Awang’s house previously. They, too, faced the effects of the wet
weather, but moved on to paint the porches at the front and back of the house. With
their hard work and perseverance, they managed to complete painting the pink
portions of Pink House. With that, they just left with the brown frames of
the house.
Only 3
children from the village came over to the pink house to attend the night
lesson tonight. The team conducted a Math lesson where they got the children to
read out numbers in English. We understand that their examinations will be in
English, and they have difficulties in reading the questions. Thus, having them
to know the numbers in English and doing simple sums will help them to improve
their literacy in both Mathematics and English. All of them enjoyed the lesson
and we are sure that the lesson will not go to waste.
Tomorrow,
Waqiu and Wei Yung will be going to SK Mangkok to complete the mural, while the
rest will continue with painting of the pink house.
