Mr Lutz Kuehnen was recently in Brunei for a non-official visit after attending the 20th World Scout Jamboree in Thailand. Kuehnen is the Assistant Director of the World Scouts Events Unit, Risk and Management Engineering, the World Scout Movement, Geneva.

During his four-day visit, arranged by the Air Scouts Chief, Skipper Awang Abdul Jalil bin Dato Haji Awang Marsal, several discussions were held to further strengthen ties of the Brunei Air Scouts Movement with others in the International Scouting Arena.

These discussions hoped to put the country's air scouting activities on the world map and create a positive network for the best interests of the movement.

During his stay, Mr Lutz was taken on tour to several places of interest, including the National Scouts Complex and other scouting properties in Gadong.

He also paid a courtesy call to Lt Col (U) Awang Hamid bin Haji Awang Nayan, the Deputy Commanding Officer of the Royal Brunei Air Force.

In Kuala Belait, he viewed air scouts activities at the Jefri Bolkiah Engineering College, which is the first technical institution to set up air rover activities.
