Body found at MBS??

Most of the Brunei delegate at the CommunicAsia 2012 are staying at Marina Bay Sands hotel and this morning I heard some shocking news about a body being found at the hotel lobby. According to the statement issued by MBS, a body was found outside the Rise lobby restaurant last night.

Just last week, there was another incident where a dead body was found at the food of Marina Bay Sands’ Sky Park. A few of my Bruneian friends did come across some policemen who are probably running the investigation on the said discovery. I’m not too sure what’s the latest development. Anyway, the hotel is running its business as usual but it has been a talking point among our Brunei friends who are currently staying at MBS.


AITI visits School of Interactive and Digital Media

Authority for Info-communications of Technology Industry of Brunei Darussalam (AITI) coordinated a site visit with established companies in Singapore bringing along the participants of this year’s CommunicAsia 2012 and representative from iCentre.

First stop, the group went to Nanyang Polytechnic, Games & Digital Entertainment Technology School of Interactive & Digital Media at which Albert Lim Song Lian, Deputy Director welcomed the Brunei delegation and explained the courses offered for game programmers and animators.

Potential game programmers in this school are given a real work opportunity as the school works closely with Sony Computer Entertainment in developing games for Playstation as well as games for smart devices on Android or IOS platforms. He further elaborated that “in the past game programmers usually comes from a separate computer science school and students of graphic would come from fine arts school and it was observed that the mental requirement were seen not to sync well with each other.” The school then merged the 2 different talents under one roof and has achieved considerable success

International students are also welcomed into this school at a small percentage due to limited 400 placements per year. The pre-requisite of this school is a minimum of an O-level background and students would need to undergo a 3 year course. Students are encouraged to broaden their horizon by participating in exhibitions such as Tokyo Gameshow in Nagoya and also similar exhibition in Guangzhow, China.

Some students were also sent to do attachments in Los Angeles, USA to gain relevant work experience with Side Effects’ main office, as the school has made a close work collaboration with the company. Side Effects supplies the Houdini software tools, used by major Hollywood studios, for the school.


Young kids were also given opportunity to get a feel of creating or designing a program


Each year they have a different theme

AITI hosted dinner at Straits Kitchen

Last night 60 people including Board of Members of AITI and representatives from AITI, Brunei International Gateway, iCentre, DST, Folec, Comquest and others attended a networking dinner hosted by AITI at the Straits Kitchen, Hyatt Regency, Singapore. The dinner was also an appreciation for those who attended the ongoing CommunicAsia 2012. As you know AITI is currently leading the Brunei delegation where 9 local ICT companies are exhibiting their businesses at the Brunei Pavilion at CommunicAsia 2012.

Hj Yahkup Hj Menudin, Chief Executive of AITI, gave some praises to the three companies that recently launched their products at CommunicAsia, notably PHMD Publishing Company, Mars Enterprise and Indah Sejahtera Development & Services Sdn Bhd. He also highlighted of the upcoming BICTA which is one of AITI’s biggest project which will also lead to APICTA where Brunei is the host nation for the regional ICT award.

I have to say I really love the food there at Straits Kitchen though I just read from my instagram that a friend of mine had a gruesome experience. I didn’t even try all the counters but only focus on one area – Indian food – and I was already satisfied and full too 😀

ITB Fun Climb

I’m a late bloomer


There’s one week left peeps!! What are you waiting for?

Hey peeps!!! Have you completed your Panini Euro 2012 Sticker album? I just started mine last week but I’m still having fun nonetheless. Some of my friends have finished their albums and some even had two albums to themselves.. Apparently there are two groups of Panini gatherings and I’m more familiar with the one that gathers at Gadong Properties FoodZone. So there will be another gathering tomorrow Friday at FoodZone starting at 4pm.

If you haven’t been to this group session before and also wanting to swap or buy/sell stickers, then do join this group —-> click here and you will be updated of current events and gatherings. Next Friday 29th June, there will be a final gathering also at Foodzone food court and I highly recommended you to come as I will be handing out some stickers from my leftovers from 6 boxes of Panini stickers *lol* The event management company Adison Marketing might also make their presence and who knows there might be some things in store for next Friday.

Just to let you know that the Panini sticker boxes have ran out from the main supplier so what remain are the stocks from vendors and retailers. Hence stickers will be very limited especially if you are a late starter like me. I’m currently in Singapore and hoping to attend a swap session if there’s one in Singapore. Apparently the end users are selling stickers at 30cents a piece *eeeekkss*


I bought two boxes initially but ended up with 6 in the end *lol*


These guys have completed their books


There was quite a turn out and this was the 5th swapping session. The 2nd day gathering had the biggest turn out.


People of all ages were there too even small kids


Ewa is a big fan of Panini football sticker


So do turn up tomorrow Friday 4pm onwards at Foodzone Gadong Properties for the meet up


I’m pretty sure these guys have completed their book. Last I heard they needed two more stickers and that was 5 days ago


I was a bit messy and my area was the messiest of the lot 😀


Despite going through numerous boxes, it doesn’t guaranteed me a complete set
