By Zureena Abdullah
Bandar Seri
Begawan - General Insurance Association of Brunei (GIAB) held
an annual dinner at the Season's Restaurant in Centrepoint, Gadong.
More than 100 representatives from
various insurance companies under GIAB attended the event.
Also present were officials from the
Ministry of Finance, Hjh Nurliati bte Hj Idris, Hjh Saadiah Hj Sidis
and Hj Aziz Tuah.
Others guest included representatives
from Asia Inc Forum and Sunshine Borneo Tours.
Chairman of GIAB Dorothy Newn, in her
opening speech, said despite the collapse of a number of major
insurance companies in the United States and Europe in recent years,
the global focus on insurance companies was financial stability
instead of growth.
She added that the introduction of
the Insurance Order to the country in the near future will provide the
necessary regulatory framework for such stability domestically.
Newn
also said the committee has been organising the East Asian Insurance
Conference with all member companies, the Ministry of Finance, Asia
Inc Forum and Sunshine Borneo Tours, adding that Brunei will be
hosting it for the first time next year, with over 1,000 delegates
from around the globe expected to turn up for the event. --
