Business and entrepreneurship are integral and important to the nation’s economy and its people. This was underlined by His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah, the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam in a titah during the YayasanSultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah (YSHHB) Aidil Fitri celebration yesterday.
Part of His Majesty’s Titah: “It is central to the economy of a society and country. It is similar with the economy, Islam does not neglect it. Lessons can be learnt from holy Al-Quran and that this provides “a clear picture that Allah (SWT) wants our economy to be vibrant, dynamic and to grow. Islam the religion, encourages its people to be active in the field of economics, not to be lazy or to sit idle.
I am very happy because one of our main focuses in the National Development Plan is furthering the development of Small Medium Enterprises (SME), we see it as a part of realising the National Vision 2035,” said His Majesty. “What pleases (me) further is the number of SMEs that have registered continues to grow and that, among them, a number have been able to penetrate the regional market.”

Andy Whitfield, 39, played Spartacus in the Starz cable series “Spartacus: Blood and Sand.” His role was recast after his illness made it impossible for him to continue in the part. He passed away yesterday, and died of lymphoma. RIP.
Yesterday The Prime Minister of Malaysia, Dato’ Sri Haji Mohd Najib bin Tun Haji Abdul Razak, who arrived in Brunei Darussalam yesterday for a one-day visit attended a Merdeka Raya celebration hosted by the Malaysian High Commissioner to Brunei Darussalam. The Prime Minister spoke of the great diplomatic relations between both governments (Brunei and Malaysia).
For the press releases, there were a few MoUs that were signed between the Brunei and Malaysia Government which includes oil and gas industry, national security, tourism, fisheries and other investments.
Here are few of the MoUs :-
1) The national petroleum authorities of Brunei Darussalam and Malaysia will work on a joint undertaking in Brunei Darussalam’s Block N under the framework of a production-sharing contract. The signing was between Brunei National Petroleum Company (PetroleumBRUNEI) and Petroliam Nasional Berhad.
2) Both governments signed an MoU relating to the construction of the bridge spanning the Pandaruan River. This is to create a bridge link between Limbang and Temburong. This will help better logistics for daily travel between Sarawak, Brunei and Sabah.
3) In the investment area, there was a signing between Brunei’s Bandtree Company and Sabah Economic Development and Investment Authority (Sedia).
4) There was also an MoU on Economy and Technical Cooperation which was signged between Brunei and Sarawak.
With these MoUs, it’s good to see a collaboration between Brunei and Malaysia and this will help strengthen the relationship between Brunei and Malaysia. The Prime Minister was on a one-day official visit to the Sultanate and yesterday, he attended the Merdeka Raya Celebration at The Empire Hotel and Country Club.
