Nyiram Manado 1984

Kami tinggal di rumah dinas type 60 ?, dengan dua kamar, ruang tamu, dapur dan toilet+kamar mandi.  Saya bongkar tembok pemisah, sehingga menjadi satu kamar tidur yang lebih luas. Rumah dinas mempunyai tanah cuku luas. Rumah terletak di dalam komplex RS Jiwa Manado, Jl Bethesda, Manado.
Saya tanami bermacam pohon buah-buahan. Pisang terutama, Mangga, Durian, dan tanaman semusim Jagung hybrida. Singkong hanya satu kali, karena membuat tanah tidak subur.
Lalu pindah ke rumah dr. Hidajat, direktur RS Jiwa Manado, yang pindah ke rumah dr. Manus dipinggir jalan Bethesda. Tanah rumah direktur lebih luas, sehinga saya bisa menanam segala species pohon Pisang. Dan meneruskan memelihara babi, yang sebelumnya diperlihara oleh dr. Hidajat.
Pengalaman yang membanggakan ialah: membangung pavilion perawatan: 2x 150 m2 tambah extra 100m2 di tengahnya. Tanpa biaya,  no-budget, untuk ruang perawat. Saya mencontoh model Mental Hospital di Singapore.
Dan menanam pohon Acasia di sekeliling RS Jiwa Manado. Yang tumbuh subur dan besar, waktu kami sekeluarga datang ke Manado 2010

Nyiram Manado 1984

We lived in a 60-square-foot official residence, with two bedrooms, a living room, a kitchen, and a toilet and bathroom. I removed the dividing wall to create one larger bedroom. The official residence had a fairly large plot of land. The house was located within the Manado Mental Hospital complex on Jl. Bethesda, Manado.

I planted various fruit trees, especially bananas, mangoes, durian, and hybrid corn as an annual crop. I only planted cassava once, as it made the soil infertile.

Then I moved to Dr. Hidajat, the director of Manado Mental Hospital, because he moved into Dr. Manus' house on Bethesda Street. The director's house had more land, allowing me to plant all kinds of banana trees. I also continued raising pigs, which Dr. Hidajat had previously raised.

A proud experience was building a treatment pavilion: two 150 m2 x 100 m2 plus an additional 100 m2 in the middle. Without the budget for this nurses' quarters. I modeled it after the mental hospitals in Singapore.

I also planted acacia trees around Manado Mental Hospital. These grew well and large when my family and I came to Manado in 2010.
