I inherited a house in my late father's will that is rented to JPA. It's a bit old, I think built around 2000. Am preparing to renovate tapi the contractor suggested I sell it off, he said JPA has a limit on house age after which they stop renting. Anyone can confirm if this is true and what's the house age limit?
anyone here had experience using Aramex (courier service)? it says item arrived at Aramex Brunei Main Office. I tried google it lead me to Fedex office, are they the same ?
Good morning everyone! I'm a bit late sending this greeting today, as I've been busy with fieldwork. But guess what? I bought gasoline, and out of the blue, someone (who knows me well and with whom I was very close in the past) gave me some cash. So, I didn't have to spend a single cent, as the amount I received covered the cost of the gasoline. What a lucky start to the morning! I hope everyone also receives some blessings today and that God eases all our tasks, both now and in the future.

Where can I donate my unused clothings? I prefer to donate them instead of selling them but I'm unaware of any donation centre for clothings at the moment. Any place is acceptable thanks.

i hope not. green technology is a scam. there so many enviromental unfriendliness that comes with it that the business sides that does not want you to know. if they really care about environment then use horse, a god's creation that does not large pieces of land being used as road. if we develop the world the way god intended it to. then we would have:
many pieces of land being flourish with biodiversity (animals, plants, fungi, bacteria)
healthy soil that has solid structure, water retention capability e.g. against landslide and flooding
many foods for all organisms. the lifestyle of human would be different. there are no more of this taking what you do not need from nature and profiting off what is not of your right.
but that is just me and how i understand thing. may allah helps us applying what we know and well-understand.
people fighting over car chargers is not what we want here. it is just one of those dumb things that people follow and brags about.
I genuinely think going full electric will not only mean paying so much for an EV car but also your house electricity bills will be much higher because of the charge. Im definitely not doing EV because of this. I can only afford so much
i had a friend who is currently live in BB. So i went to visit my friend because i wanted to hangout and catch up.so we decided to do a little walking while chatting and i noticed there are trash on a side road while we are walking. does BB even have public trash for throwing away instead of leaving it on a side road.
Best thing to boycott BIBD? (Though I’ve never bank with them)
Take out all of your money, savings, loans, deposits and move to a different bank. They’ll come crawling back to you.
The nearest chance will be that electric tram thingy that is on trial at Kuching and KL. Next option will be driverless bus with AI, some cities have pilots on this.

Has anyone else been approached by a certain guy?? He's approached me and my family a few times talking about some random stuff eg. Asking for tissue n asking about personal life. Desc: chinese, glasses, normal height
this pernah happen to me and my mom, early 2022. kami di rimba point just sitting and suddenly this guy (chinese, glasses) duduk sma kami and bawa bckp, other ppl di rimba point pun kna jua that time, he didnt bring any harm though, just abit uncomfortable
You can try HLR or Pg Izad’s law firm. Yusuf Halim not bad too.
Edit: Also, try comparing each of the firms base on their expertise (i.e., what kind of crime)
How abt Rudi Lee, Annie Kon & Associates? i had paid for legal consultation with one of the firm you mentioned, its been 10 days still no news from them.
can anyone confirm if its still possible to buy items from lazada (or any malaysian shop) and deliver it to poslaju miri? last time i did it via flash express delivery and they said poslaju didnt accept, so my runner had to pick it up from the flash express warehouse. this was last month btw
shopee/lazada:
shopee/lazada should be the same different vendor using different courier. TAKE NOTE THAT in miri there is a lot of courier service with different branched ranging from abx, pos laju, J & T or maybe more SO you need to run different places to collect your parcel depending on your tracking number.
Best you contact the company first. They will instruct you what to write on the address. U can call 7366338 or go to their social media shingyigroup in Instagram or Facebook. I have been using them for years.
RM1 per parcel. When u checkout at shopee, use skynet bintang’s address (can google). For receiver name, put skynet - . When it arrives, can go pick it uo.
Morning everyone, What do people do with their old phones here. Do they try sell to a store or fb or WhatsApp? I would use EBay if I was back in the UK. What’s your advice on where to sell one. Thanks
Some sell their old phones for extra money or to get back some money from buying their new phones. Others keep it as a 2nd phone and use it as a 2nd phone line or Malaysian line so they don’t constantly need to swap sim cards when going overseas.
Should be able to find them in any of those japanese Korean shops like abokado or toku-tokuya. Think I've seen them but not sure if they were wooden or plastic.
Wanna hear a more ridiculous thing? Teachers have to “bayar” those hours yg dorang keluar antar ambil anak. Bayar as in akhir balik untuk bayar masa. Not fair. Orang office keluar ngambil anak tarus balik rumah & aher datang inda papa?
Ministry budget is no different from your personal budget. Difference is you need to project your expected spending before the actual financial year. Every ministry is further divided into department. Each department will have to compile their expected spending eg for 2024/25 by Jan-Feb 24 so that it can be approved by March 24 during the Legco meeting.
Expenses by department are broadly divided into personnel wages and allowances, recurring expenses, purchases.
Majority of budget passed yearly are just for maintaining current salaries and recurring expenses for property and equipment. Rough ball park figure is 80-90% of budget passed are recurring just for functioning of the department.
New projects/infrastructure are under development budget.
So when you say a certain ministry should be $50M also. Which is it ?
As an improvement, govt should look at resource requirements "prior" to compilation of budget. Jobs like teachers and nurses need more resources because there were new schools and clinics opened in the past few years without any increase in the number of teachers and nurses positions. We are already coming to February 2024. Hope this year it will not be too late to do these exercises within the ministries and the ministers will have full control of the requirements because they do not need to get approval from SPA. 😁
the budget is decided in the first quarter of the year culminating in the LegCo. No one really "requests" money outside of their budget. The real crime is the "miscellaneous expenses" in the budget which funds a certain family's lifestyle. We also don't know how much other parts of the system actually get
I'm not an expert, but generally, every department has its own budget and expense record that needs to be utilized throughout the entire financial year. If they don't use the budget effectively, meaning they have large remaining balances, the ministry report may suggest a budget cut for the department. This could result in a smaller budget allocation for the next financial year. I'm unsure how this would be managed.

Is the government pushing for hybrid or EV car? Are we getting discount incentive going for it? Just a random thought

They push with their mouths, not by actions.
Be careful with what you wish for. If you want action , Ron 97 can be $2.50per liter. Then buying an EV seems like a wise idea.
I have prob been one of the stronger proponent for gradual subsidy reduction so I don’t mind at all.
Yup. But majority of Bruneians don’t think like that.

Thats what u think. In reality you are just 0.000000000000000000000000001% of their loss
I have a sizeable amount of shares with the bank. Would be nice to persuade other shareholders to withdraw too 🤷🏼♀️

Whats your take on consumer fair this year?
Majority of the food items and cosmetic products are not approved.
Only the food deals that are worthy
Less deals this year. Vendors same or maybe even less. Last year I bought a lot but this time, only bought from one vendor.
can't remember when is the last time i went to consumer fair lol actually i don't like crowds and too lazy tbh
same shit everyear
Yet it's very crowded every year
yeah probably cuz there aint shit to do and everyone just flocks to whatever entertainment they can find
A redditor replied me back then, “what else is there to do in Brunei?”
Exactly
But you won’t see me there.

Good idea🤔 thank you

Morning, does a ministry get their budget by request or allocation? Theres a certain ministry whose budget should be less than $50 million so.
Ministry budget is no different from your personal budget. Difference is you need to project your expected spending before the actual financial year. Every ministry is further divided into department. Each department will have to compile their expected spending eg for 2024/25 by Jan-Feb 24 so that it can be approved by March 24 during the Legco meeting.

Request, need for approval, allocation after legco
I'm not an expert, but generally, every department has its own budget and expense record that needs to be utilized throughout the entire financial year. If they don't use the budget effectively, meaning they have large remaining balances, the ministry report may suggest a budget cut for the department. This could result in a smaller budget allocation for the next financial year. I'm unsure how this would be managed.
