Spruce-Up For Jerudong Park
By Ignatius Stephen

Bandar Seri Begawan - Brunei's famous Jerudong Park Playground is to get rid of some of its old and "outdated" rides.

They are to be sold off. New attractions are to replace them. The Management of Jerudong Park and Country Club (JPCC) announced yesterday its immediate plans regarding the Jerudong Park Playground and talked about its "long term strategy."

It said that since the Playground was first opened to the public in 1994, it has provided both the domestic and overseas visitors with a unique entertainment venue in Brunei.

"With the Playground now 12 years old, many of the rides are considered outdated and no longer cost effective to maintain to the necessary safety standards," the Jerudong Park and Country Club (JPCC) management said.

Many of these rides are also losing their attractions to the visitors, it added. The management therefore announced that the immediate plan is to dispose off some of these rides in the coming months.

"The management is also currently working on a plan to replace the rides with newer attractions that would be more in line with the long term strategy of keeping the playground as one of the landmark attractions in the country," the announcement said.

"The management would like to thank the general public for their support over the years and asks for their patience in the coming months, while the management is planning its long term strategies for the playground," it added.
