Precious Moment

Nice & lovely day at the beach is what we expected when we planned to organise an outing to the beach.

In Brunei Darussalam, there are numbers of beautiful beaches (known in Malay as 'Pantai') namely Pantai Serasa, Pantai Muara, Pantai Tungku, Pantai Seri Kenangan and Pantai Lumut. Among the listed beaches, the most beautiful beach (i personally categorised it as clean & happening) is Pantai Seri Kenangan; literally known as "memories.."

I have been teaching tourism students in Hospitality & Tourism Deparment in Sultan Saiful Rijal College for almost 5 years now, and had experienced a lot of outings such as barbeques, picnic, and so on.

It was last year 2005 when the department organised an outing at Muara Beach in Brunei Muara District (not far from where i work). Staff and students were having such a fun time; playing beach football, water balloon fighting, passing parcels, sprinkling flour towards the final year students and so on.

Talking about food, Hospitality & Tourism Department is well known with creating delicious recipes based on types of occassion. For the outing, the staff and students prepared marinated chicken wings, beef, lamb chop, sausages; pasta, fruit punch and so many desserts! Some students especially those who were in catering course and their final year helped the staff to do the cooking, the rest doing their own business.....

But for me and my close friends were doing something else. At first, we were just enjoying our time at the chalet when we came up with some exciting ideas! Playing with sand .. as if kindergarten kids! (Well age does not stop us from doing something exciting!!!) It was quite fun for us!

My friends, Julie and Deena built sand castles which were quite 'UGLY' to me due to the 'BAD' towers design! Hehehehe! But one thing i admired was the sand gates (i was not quite sure who built it.....) It reminds me of arabic castle .........

As they were too energetic in building sand castles .... I came out with an idea ... and guess what, i made a 'CUTE', 'SWEET' & 'FUNKY' crocodile. (look at the photo above), it proved that they love my crocodile! Hahahahaha!

22nd National Day Celebration



I was so lucky to be chosen as one of the oath reader ..... (22 of us were selected from the public and private sectors), the reading of the National Day oath was led by Awang Fahmi bin Hj Metussin (Winner of ASEAN Youth Competition in Quran Reader for Male), who coincidently was born on January 1, 1984.

The mass gathering to commemorate the 22nd Anniversary of Brunei's Independence at Taman Haji Sir Muda Omar Ali Saifuddien in Bandar Seri Begawan. Witnessing the event were His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah, Prince Hj Al-Muhtadee Billah, the Crown Prince, Prince Haji Mohamed Bolkiah, Prince Haji Sufri Bolkiah, Prince Abdul Malik & Prince Abdul Mateen.
The main highlight of the National Day gathering was the three large-scale field performances by 4,000 participants (students, Government Servants, NGOs & Private sectors) that highlighted the theme of the 22nd National Day celebration. All the performances incorporated colourful props such as umbrellas and fans. The several rehearsals prior to the main event helped in the immaculate performance of the participants, who showed their patriotic spirit and earned the applause of those witnessing the event.

The gigantic Brunei Darussalam National flag pattern performance that followed signified the existence of strong unity, high patriotic spirit and competitiveness among the people of Brunei Darussalam in facing the many challenges of globalisation.
