Bandar Seri Begawan - The Postal Services Department held a briefing yesterday at the Ministry of Communications as part of its ongoing `Correct Mailing Address' campaign for government ministries and departments within the Brunei-Muara district.

The briefing for the civil servants was given by Hamir bin Mohd Salleh, Assistant Post Master General (Operational).

It focused on the Postal Services Department's initiative to raise the percentage of successful deliveries of mail and to shorten the time taken to deliver the mail.

To achieve this goal, the department, highlights the theme "Bantu Kami Menolong Biskita" (Help Us Help You).

The audience was told of the repeated occurrences of illegible handwriting, incomplete and/or incorrect addresses of recipients. These hamper the Postal Service's efforts to deliver mail.

They were informed of the different capabilities and limitations of the sorting machines used by the government department.

This was done with a view to better facilitate the function and prevent incidents of jamming and damage to the sorters when handling mail.

The campaign, launched earlier this month, aimed to inform on the correct way of addressing mail posted to residences, commercial addresses in buildings and P.O. Boxes.

The guest of honour was Hj Azahari Mohd Ali, Acting Post Master General, Postal Services Department, Ministry of Communication's.

Briefings for the Tutong, Belait and Temburong districts will take place on March 3, March 7 and March 10 respectively. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
