It was first quarter of 2004 when I lost my first job due to collapse of company. By middle of the year I started job as promotional assistant in an insurance company and By end of the year 2005 I got a opportunity to go Saudi Arabia.

It was a contract base job for three years with attractive incentive and salary. I accepted and went to KSA (kingdom of Saudi Arabia). It was a project of MEWA (Ministry of water and agriculture) with Nadec ( national agricultural development company) as semi government base company.

Me and my Srilankan colleague with coordinator Mr.Muhammad Al - Dulaimi ( Saudi national, employee of Nadec) assigned in eastern province along with UAE - Oman border.

We travel 30km around the Battha check point on border with each 500M diging to collect the samples of soil. Made the mapping of water canals and pumping station, allocate the sector for palm trees, marked the plain area suitable for wheat and barley , site for mini Grid.

On march 4-6 we got smart training regarding the project. ( You can imagine my feelings as a villager of a middle class family sitting in world community people in conference hall of a Le Meridians Al-Riyadh ( 7 Star ) hotel . How ever, we got assignment of the project of next 8 months.

We completed our project with great tireless efforts , hardwork , passion and determination. We submitted our assignment to the concerned authority on end of November 2006.

Best day ever.
Then the day come which I will not forget . We all personnel met again on 6th January 2007 in Le meridian AlKhobar on Persian gulf beach . It was a cool Saturday with full of moisturize air blowing as we were on beach.

This was the closing of project and awards ceremony. At 2.00 PM we were all in the Al-Uqba auditorium of the hotel. The minister of MEWA, HRH Naif bin Abdullah bin Abdul Aziz' was the chief guest of the ceremony. Auditorium was full with distinguished guests and management team of company along with all MRs.

In the Awards ceremony time comes when I could not believe on my listening when my name also announced for " Second best Project" winners. I looked at Nishanth with twinkling eyes and couldn't understand that what to do . Because we never expected that our name can come as winning project.

we headed to stage with tumbling legs . Received the award of 8000 SR ($2000) and appreciation trophy from HRH minister. The whole hall was clapping for us . My eyes were wet with tears of joy. It was a great honour for me to win second prize in a competition where other capable and experienced people from different countries were participants.

This memorable day I can't forget in my life because it was never matter of prize money , it was matter of honour , dignity and integrity. I prove my worth with hard work and with the grace of Almighty God I win the award.
