Permanent Secretary at the Ministry of Industry and Primary Resources Dato Paduka Haji Idris Bin Haji Belaman hosted a dinner on Saturday night for the Mayor of Shenzen Mr Yu Youjun, who is in the Sultanate to promote economic and tourist exchanges and cooperation between Brunei and Shenzen.

The event, held at Li Gong Restaurant in the Empire Hotel and Country Club, was attended by various directors and senior officers of the Ministry of Industry and Primary Resources.

The Ambassador of the People's Republic of China to Brunei Darussalam Mr Wei Wei was also in attendance.

Earlier that day, Mr Yu and other delegates visited some of the country's most popular tourist destinations, including the Jame'Asr Hassanil Bolkiah Mosque, the Royal Regalia and Kampung Ayer.

The Chinese mayor said he was impressed by the architectural design of the mosque. In his opinion, he added, it was the most elegant and beautiful structure in this region.

He also said a visit to Royal Regalia helped him better understand His Majesty and the country's long-standing monarchy.
