New Consultant

Met my friend Mr. Chong at my bird house. He took a look inside the bird house and then he asked if there are any successful bird house around. I said yes and took him to one of the bird house about 500m from my bird house.

My friend took out a pair of tweeters from his car and started playing the bird sound. Swiftlets started coming down to his car after hearing the sound. As we drove back to my bird house he said that he could turn my bird house around with some renovation work.

He said that work done by my previous consultant was quite good. The room temperature is good, the planks and tweeters are well installed. The only problem is the roving area which is too small. The internal sound is good but the external sound needs to be changed. He needs to hack away the wall and create a bigger roving area.

As we were having lunch together, I asked him why he venture into swiftlet farming full time. He told me how he started into swiftlet farming.

He used to have problems with his business, workers problems, collection problems and always make him very stress. He used to mixed with a group of friends and among the friends there was one guy who was always smiling. Whenever he met the guy, the guy always looks happy and smiling. So one day he decided to ask him the reason. The guy told him that he is a swiftlet farmer and make 70k a month. (I think he must be smiling in his sleep too) The guy is willing to teach my friend how to venture into the swiftlet farming. So that is how my friend started to be a swiftlet farmer. That was 7 years ago. Now, my friend have more than 10 bird houses and he is also doing bird nest cleaning and selling to retails.
