There were more than 150 participants for the project

The Consultative Council of Kg Kapok held a cleaning campaign last Sunday at Meragang Beach. More than one hundred and fifty residents of the village and its surrounding areas took part in the project, which was held partly to strengthen unity and encourage community work.

The event was started with a reading of the 'Al-Fatihah' by the Bilal of Kg Kapok Mosque.

A welcoming speech was given by the campaign's chairperson and village head, Awang Haji Mohammad Ali Abdul Rahman.

This was followed by a few words from Pg Abd Haris Pg Hj Shabudin, the Assistant Officer of Brunei-Muara District and guest of honour, who also led the campaign on the day.

Also taking part to make the event a success were officials from other government agencies, such as the Department of Brunei-Muara District and Fire Department.
