CCM Delegation Wraps Up Visit
By Husin HJ

Bandar Seri Begawan - A four-member delegation from the Cooperative College of Malaysia (CCM) wrapped up their five-day working visit to the Sultanate yesterday with a visit to the Royal Regalia building in the capital.

The delegation was led by Hjh Hayati Mohd Salleh, Head of CCM's Administration, Law and Leadership Centre, in Petaling Jaya, Selangor. Accompanying her were Shaafie Said, Director of Sabah's CCM; Jaibit Jaudin, Training executive (Sabah branch); and Noraesyah Saari from the Research and Consultancy Centre (Petaling Jaya).

Hjh Hayati said she was satisfied with the moderate progress of the cooperative movement in the country and urged cooperative leaders to work vigorously to promote their business activities to sustain the economic and social well-being of its members. "There are plenty of opportunities for Brunei and Malaysia to cooperate especially in training and research in cooperatives. Education is a continuing process and must be developed and enhanced in tandem with the rapid shift of the current business climate," Hjh Hayati said.

"A formal joint collaboration between CCM and BINA will signal a dawn of new era for Brunei cooperatives as they will be able to take various courses in administration, accountancy and leadership in Malaysia," she added.

Previously, only officials from the Department of Cooperative Development (merged with the Industrial Unit of MIPR to form BINA in 1996) are eligible to undergo training in Malaysia, which was sponsored by CCM under the Malaysian Technical Cooperation Programme (MTCP) annually. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
