ON JUNE 18, MANAGING DIRECTOR TUAN SHUKOR ARRIVED IN DELHI FOR HIS OFFICIAL FLYING VISIT TO INDIA PROJECT HERE. SPENDING 3 DAYS IN DELHI, BROUGHT MR SHUKOR TO VISIT THE SITES IN ORDER TO SEE THE PROGRESS RUNNING, INSTEAD TO GIVE ENCOURAGEMENT TO EVERYBODY INVOLVED. LOOKING AT HIM, THE FIRST IMPRESSION COME OUT ON MIND WAS OUTRAGEOUSLY AMBITIOUS, ESPECIALLY THOSE FIRST TIME MET HIM. LISTENING TO HIM, EVERY WORD IS SPOKEN WELL AND MEANINGFUL, CONVINCING US TO FOCUS THE AIM. ON JUNE 19, ALL MALAYSIANS STAFF WERE INVITED FOR A DINNER AT TEQUILA RESTAURANT, TOGETHER WITH SPECIAL GUESTS; MR. HALIM SURATMAN, MR ZULKIFLI KAMARUDIN, MR CHAN CHI LEE AND MR ANUAR ABDUL. DELIGHTFUL SERVED, STARTED WITH VERY UNIQUE APPERTIZER, MARVELLOUS MEAL OF MUGHLAI AND TRADITIONAL INDIAN AFTERMINT HERBS AS THE DESSERT, SO ENJOYABLE. MR SHUKOR AND MR CHAN FLY HOME ON JUNE 20 THEN FOLLOWED BY MR HALIM ON JUNE 25 AND MR ZULKIFLI ON JUNE 27. CONSEQUENTLY, THIS FLYING VISIT DONE PERSIST FLYING COLOURS.

Click on the above chart for enlargement.

ON JUNE 12, CONCRETE POURED ON C.I.S THIRD SPAN OF PP134-PP135. THIS IS LOCATED IN BETWEEN OF THE 2 COMPLETED SPAN AT C.I.S I SITE. FORTUNATELY, NO BAD INCIDENT HAPPENED AS THE PROGRESS COMPLETED WITHIN A FEW HOURS. SO FAR, AT C.I.S II SITE, 3 SPAN ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION, ONE OF THEM IS NOW INSTALLING THE OUTER SHUTTERS AND THE REST ARE INSTALLING THE CRIBS. AS A CONCLUSION, 5 SPANS ARE UNDER CONSTRUCTION. AFTER THE FIRST LAYER CASTING, IT IS BELIEVED TO PROCEED WITH SECOND LAYER CASTING WITHIN 20 DAYS. HOPEFULLY, THE COMING MONSOON SEASON WILL NOT AFFECTS MUCH THE PROGRESS BUT ENCOURAGES EVERYBODY TO DOUBLE UP EFFORDS TOWARDS THE END. AS THE FIRST LAYER CASTED, IT CONTRIBUTES SOME PERCENTAGE TO THE CAST IN-SITU PROGRESS AND MAKES OVERALL COMPLETION PERCENT UP TO 21.98%.

FORWARDED LAUNCHERS

ON JUNE 13, LG NO.2 COMPLETED ALL THE 6 SPANS ON EXIT LINE. THIS ROUTE IS CONNECTING BETWEEN THE SECOND C.I.S SITE (EXIT LINE OFF MUNDKA STATION) AND THE RAMP TOWARDS THE DEPOT. THE LAUNCHER WILL BE DISMANTLED AND MOVED TO A NEW LOCATION ON P54-P55 NEAR NANGLOI RAILWAY STATION. THIS THIRD ROUTE OF LG NO.2 CONSISTS 26 SPANS. 7 CURVE SPANS EXPECTED TO BE CONSTRUCTED AT 3 PARTICULAR LOCATION OF P55-P52, P40-P38 AND P32-P30.

MEANWHILE, LG NO.3 IS NOW ON PROGRESS TO CONSTRUCT THE REST 6 SPANS TOWARDS SURAJMAL STADIUM. MOST OF THE SPANS ARE CURVILINEAR AND WILL BE WORKING ON PORTAL PIERS. THE MAIN CHALLENGE IS THE EXPECTED TRAFFIC AND TO SOLVE THIS PROBLEM, THE ROAD HAS TO BE DIVERTED.
