Rano says what a busy Sunday it was. I missed covering the Heart of Borneo Challenge by HSBC. I missed the "Frozen" gimmick that was held at The Mall yesterday. I missed the softball finals of the 2009 MB Invitational Cup where PLK Zombies (Men's) and Legends from the Philippines (Ladies') won their respective categories.

This was because I was too tied up with the 4th Brunei Cyber Game and also the Rockband 2 competition held at The Mall in conjunction with the B-Mobile roadshow which was solid packed. The Consumer Fair 4 (CF4) at the ICC broke attendance record as it registered 58,000 visitors in the span of four days. That's like one fifth of Brunei's population (or I could be wrong). Salutes to Sunlit Advertising for putting up a great exhibition. The BKN roadshow (part of CF4) was also successful as they want to put the message across to parents on the dangers on drug usage.

I'm too lazy to type at this moment actually *lol*. I had a late night after a long telephone conversation and today's supposed to be my rest day. So I'm taking a bit of my sweet time to upload today's news so do bear with me on this :) Anyway, before I continue my entries, I would like you guys to check out The Brunei Times website's new layout. It looks more professional than before and I'm quite surprised that the stories are uploaded in the morning rather than the usual afternoon period. So you can check it out here on their new layout.

Media Appreciation night by PMO. Thank you to the Prime Minister's Office for the extended invitation for the media appreciation night. The PMO has played a very active role especially the recent E-Government Strategic Plan 2009-2014 launch and the roadshow which was held at The Mall recently and the media has played a positive role in doing so.

"This (the e-Government) is one of the efforts made by the Prime Minister's Office in executing aspirations of His Majesty's government as the primary moving mechanism in providing services to customers and the public. It will be more efficient, convenient, customer-focus, cost-effective. Overall, it will be better than the previous system," said Azhar Haji Ahmad, the Acting Director of the e-Government National Centre.

The event took place at Amigos Restaurant hosted by the guest of honour Dato Seri Paduka Eussoff Agaki Haji Ismail, Deputy Minister at the Prime Minister's Office. Also present was YAM Pg Anak Khairul Khalil bin Pg Syed Hj Jaafari. Other medias were also present from the Brunei Press, The Brunei Times, all Chinese newspaper, RTB, Info Department and local house production.

The next roadshow will be held in KB on July 4th at Dewan Bandaran.

 

Catch Feby Mercelia at The Mall. She can really woo the crowd.. As part of the "Loyalty Club" launch by B-Mobile Commuication Sdn Bhd, the Indonesian artist Feby Marcelia performed at The Mall for the past two days and she will be making another appearance tonight at The Mall. As some of you will know that Feby is popular from the show "Mama Mia" and also for those fanatic fans can catch Indonesian band Kangen at The Mall tonight.

For those interested to sign up for the "Loyalty Club", you still can register and be part of the Club. I have yet to register one. I better sign up soon :)
