Government Scholarship Students Attend Talk
By Lalla Rahman

Bandar Seri Begawan - About 170 new government scholarship students for the academic session of 2005/2006 yesterday attended a national talk organised by the Information Department of the Prime Minister's Office.

The talk was held at the multipurpose hall of the Fire Services Department, Berakas.

Welcoming remarks were presented by Director of Information Department, Awang Hj Bujang bin Hj Masu'ut, who briefed the students who will be going overseas to further their studies.

"A degree or certificate does not guarantee the degree holder a job if there is no `value added skills', which among them include being competent in communication," he said, urging students to help each other and to maintain the Bruneian image.

Awg Hj Bujang advised students to get hold of the contact numbers of relevant officers in the countries they will be studying in so they would be able to report any problems faced during their stay.

He also urged students to take care of their personal documents, particularly their passports, and to report immediately to relevant officers if their documents were lost.
