Look, I had been just informed few hours earlier that the visit was on exactly that day, and they were rushing from Penang, right after the Ling's. Hell no! I thought Prof would have given a week or a day notification. What was my reaction was not a reaction. I could not just stop them from coming?!
W.a.m, that's nothing, as my friends said: only a "chit-chatting" what~~ LOL
Prod did not know my location and he called me for confirmation. And, first reaction arrived at my place with his three post-grad students: "Wah, it looks like hotel."
Second, I was not surprised until he told me that he was from SP too. hehe
Third, he wanted to meet my sv and I simultaneously. So impromptu huh~
Fourth, he asked some random questions:
P/S: My sv was nervous than me myself during the live chat as he asked her what qualification she has had for her to work as food safety supervisor. Also, my sv was afraid to chat in English.
I comforted her: Language and qualification, they doesn't matter as far as you do the job well and you own the precious years of experience.

Fourth, he asked some random questions:
What does the factory produce? Pudding
What's main ingredient of the pudding? Carrageenan it is
What problems are you facing in pudding? Syneresis
How do you cope this? Constant research on the formulation of carrageenan and LBG. Different proportion is used.
Any lab test conducted? Erm, we do not have any in house lab, but we do some simple one like checking pH and Brix.
So what do you have learned from here? Mostly food safety management system, ISO docs and etc. Indeed, I have learned a lot. Like a whole lot... My sv and I have some learning exchange.
How long is your pudding shelf life? 18 months.
How do you test it? Uh uh, we do not test it, we outsource for people to test it.
Ok, then you know how? Uh uh, testing on the microb?
No... ok I let you know. There's a method called Accelerated Shelf Life Testing. Go find it out. Ermm, okay I will.Fifth, ahha, end of the not-so-exciting chatting session which was conducted in rojak language. What do you know, I actually love to speak 1Malaysia language. He walked out the room, reminded my sv to fill in the sv's report and in fact he said "thank you and bye". *Ahem, forgot something? Excuse me, no any survey form for me? Coz my friends got it*
