While some people went to special vantage points to see the first sunrise of the new year, I decided to stay right in Naju Bitgaram City to see it. Over the edge of the city and between the apartment buildings, I was able to glimpse the reddish orb peeking over the mountainous horizon.
I wish everyone a happy new year of the red monkey. It'll be even more interesting year than before. Hopefully, that will be in a good way. I'm wondering if I'll have the time to see the Mercury transit of the Sun on May 9 in either Europe or east coast of North America, for one thing...

Welcoming the delegates to the KPX Training on Power Market for Mongolia NDC
I had the pleasure of hosting the training of the Mongolian delegates at my workplace on the topics related to the power market earlier this month (December 14 to 18, 2015). It seems everyone was satisfied and I'm optimistic that KPX and Mongolia NDC will continue this program next year. The news of this activity is now making the rounds on the Korean media like so:
As with the photo above, the publicized photo of the completion ceremony shows me standing on the far right and the director of the Education Center on the far left. The seven delegates stand in the middle.
Meanwhile, another news concerning KPX appeared last week. It was about the annual promotion.
What was notable this time around is that it lists me as being promoted from Manager (과장) to Deputy General Manager (차장). This is the first 'real' promotion I got. The Mongolia NDC training probably helped me earn this, along with other stuff I've done for the company up to now. More work awaits me next year.
