gathering for its Canadian Alumni at the Empire Hotel and Country

In an address by Mr Leopold Battel,
High Commissioner of Canada, he welcomed members and expressed his
gratitude in sharing their knowledge of Canada, its universities,
industries and contributing in the cooperation between Brunei and
Canada.
He also hoped that the event would
be the first of many meetings to follow during the year. In addition
to reconnecting with the Canadian Alumni of Brunei, it gave him the
opportunity to liaise with several members who have also become
prominent businessmen or businesswomen.
Members of the Alumni Association
and others guests present were also invited to explore possible
social and sport activities to be undertaken. by the Canadian club.
A series of events and activities

not done so.
