Groningen Here We Come (PART 1)

Hi Semua today Ika nak cerita sikit my travel experience. So, on 10 Nov 16 Ika kena go for business trip to Amsterdam for estimation 3 months duration. This business trip is to support production for company Ika kerja sekarang, AMO Kulim (Abbott Medical Optic). Ika and other 16 collegue come to support production in AMO, Groningen. Company ni produces lens for cataract (Selaput). Disebabkan ramp up and shortage of man power thats why dia orang perlukan tenaga kerja lebih.

Groningen terletak di Belanda or Nederland. Ika travel from KLIA to Schiphol Airport using KLM (Royal Ducth Airlines) , Amsterdam. Travel duration around 13 hours. So, memang la keras dok atas flight. Makan, tidur, main games, tengok movie & berangan haha dah lama kan tak dak free time nak berangan.

Bye Malaysia...

Sempat layan Zootopia, Favourite Ariana ni..ke favourite mama dia ha..haha

Arrival at the Schiphol Airport

Sampainya kami kat Airport kami dijemput oleh Agensi 3rd party dari AMO Groningen. Dia orang ni yang uruskan segala tempat tinggal, residence card and also our bank card.Keluar ja Airport mak aii.. sejuk and dingin (2 darjah celcius ja..bayangkan malaysia around 30 darjah celcius). Kat sini make sure la dah pakai siap2 winter coat korang.

Then, kami travel from Airport to Groningen and stay at Hampshire Hotel for one night. Travel time from Airport to Groningen around 2 hours.Kami naik bus.

Morning breakfast (We all take bread and egg ja dimana kami yakin halalnya)

After breakfast we moved pulak ke Student Hotel which we going to stay for 1 week until our apartment ready to check in. (Dah macam kaum nomad la jugak kami ni,pindah randah ja keja)

Disebabkan ni Part 1, nanti pulak ika story once kami dah sampai Student Hotel ya.

Aktifkan Kad ATM Di Luar Negara

Assalamualaikum semua,

Bila ika dapat tahu yang ika nak kena travel ke luar negara, what cross my mind is ATM kat sana boleh cucuk ka? Then ika pun call la Maybank hotline then dia pun explain kat ika how to activate ATM card kita di luar negara.

So here ika nak share cara-cara dia. Semoga bermanfaat ya kawan-kawan. First you all login maybank2u macam biasa.

Click dekat Card Management

Then click Overseas ATM Facility

Then Select Activation

Put your start date and end date (Duration u ols kat luar negara), click continue.

Then just click Request for TAC. Few seconds u ols akan received the TAC number via phone. Put the TAC number then confirm.

Tada,...dah boleh cucuk duit kat ATM overseas.

But, if you plan nak ke luar negara better you ols tukar currency siap2. Sebab ada caj untuk setiap withdrawal yg kita buat kat luar negara. This is just in case of emergency lah.
