Yes, I miss the place a lot, and such a pity that a place that can be a model for other places should turn to ruins. And we were lucky to be able to get education from the best facilities PERTAMINA provided us. Good luck wherever you are now, and let's keep PB/TL in our hearts, because they have shaped us into what we are today. :) Cheers! Dear Grace,

I spent my childhood in TL/PB. Back in the 80s. Although I live abroad, family still reside in Jakarta and Medan. I also missed the place a lot. But heard its run down now. Sad. Heard that it's also not safe anymore due to it's proximity to Aceh. Yah I agree, its scary, the place I grew up had vanished. Other people can go back to their hometown. I got none. Told my friend who is a psychologist, it's difficult for kids who grew up moving from one place to another and even worse when those place dissapeared. The Junior High School was indeed a great school. I didnt realise back then, how posh it is to have such huge football field, to have basket ball and volley ball in a school. Not to mention the huge gym. PERTAMINA was great. I now live in the UK. Only now I realized, how the company spoilt us with free facilities. Great to know someone out there also miss the place.
