Cleaning campaign at Spg 160-20 Kampong Pandan B, Kuala Belait

As mention at my earlier post the traditional concept of voluntarily working together in groups, gotong royong or "memucang -mucang" is still being practised in Brunei Darussalam.

This morning gotong royong was held at Kampung Pandan B, Kuala Belait. Various goverment department, Majlis Perundingan Kampong Pandan B and residents of Kampong Pandan B involved in the cleaning campaign. The campaign was headed by Awg Haji Mohamad bin Haji Abd Rahman , Belait District Officer.

Youths were also involved in the campaign

This cute little guy is the most proactive among the youths and told me that he will play football at kompleks sukan Mumong with his team later this afternoon.



Look what they caught while cleaning the drain outlet, live eels and they believe its good for 'Tenaga Batin' hehe




No comment! Vandalism

24th National Day

Traffic was horrendous at 7.00 am in the capital town. Saw many jaywalkers passing the roads on their destination to the SOAS padang. Good thing our team's focal point is near Citibank. Didn't bring along my camera as I was involved in the department representative for the national day marching. Met a few shutterbugs such as gferro, Ichinose and Butakaler and I insisted them to take pictures of our group. Hey guys, don't forget to email me or post up the pictures.

Every year we celebrate our national day on the 23rd of Feb despite gaining our independence on the 1 January 1984. So why don't we celebrate our national day on the 1st January every year? I was informed the reason sometime ago but it somehow has slipped my mind. I will try to find out again but should any of you know why, do let us know......

LEFT OR RIGHT

I'm sure most of you had the experience of filling up the fuel at the filling station and i'm pretty sure some of you sometime forgot which side is the fuel cap of the car is, and this will lead to sticking your head out of the door to check whether the fuel door cap is on the right or left.

Well people, I'm going to share with you a little secret so you will no longer look like a giraffe on your way to the filling station or put your neck at risk of discomfort or injury.

On the dashboard, If you look at your fuel gauge, you will see a small icon of a fuel pump.

If your tank is on the left, the handle will be on the left (Fig 1.1) or handle will be on the right with an arrow pointing to the left side. (Fig 1.2)

(Fuel door Flap will be on the Left, Passenger side)

If your tank is on the right, the handle will be on the right as pictures shown below.

PADI HARVESTING IN MUKIM LABI

Labi is located about 68 km from the Belait Town, It cover an area of 361 sq km with a population of 2300 people .

The mukim was divided into two zones which are known as Labi Satu (one) and Labi Dua (two). Both zones have their own ketua kampong. There are four longhouses in the vicinity with its own respective chief.

Mukim Labi is well known locally for its agricultural products especially the limau labi which has become a trademark of local orange and Padi.

The traditional concept of voluntarily working together in groups, gotong royong or "memucang -mucang", is still being practised in Brunei Darussalam.

The Minister of Health, Pehin Dato Seri Setia Haji Suyoi as well as the Belait District Officer, Haji Mohamad bin Haji Abd Rahman, last year took part in a padi harvesting activity at the Gatas area in Mukim Labi in the Belait District. Officers and staff of Belait District Office and Ministry of Health also took part. A group of volunteers also joined and members of the Mukim Consultative Council and the residents in the harvesting of padi at the Paya Gatas padi field in Labi.

Last year, the harvesting campaign was at Dayang Hapsah binti Abu Bakar’s padi farm, an area of 2 acres. Dayang Hapsah, a 67 year old single mother, has been planting paddy since the year 2000. The Gatas area is one of the country’s main locations for paddy farming with an area of thirty hectares.
