MTSSR Students Visit Council Hall
By Kartika Rahman

Bandar Seri Begawan - The Brunei Council Hall in Bandar Seri Begawan recently received its first visit from an educational institute: a 32-member contingent from Maktab Teknik Sultan Saiful Rizal (MTSSR).

The students are currently taking the Property Management Programme National Diploma in the third semester of their second year. This also includes Law of Property, which briefly touches on how policies are passed.

Therefore it was useful for them to visit the Council Hall for some first-hand information from officers of the Legislative Touncil Department.

"This trip should be made an example by other educational institutes to encourage students to learn more about the processes of government and parliament," said Secretary of Cabinet Ministers' Legislative Council cum Clerk of Legislative Council, Pehin Dato Paduka Hi 7udin Hj Asar, as he welcomed the contingent.

This was followed by a briefing from Special Duties Officer t-lj Adanan Hj Man-gong on the Legislative Council's functions, Acting Public Relations Officer

Hjh Sa'niah Hj Muhd Husain on its structure, and finally Pehin Haji Judin himself on how acts are established as well as its various procedures. The students were also taken on a tour of the Council Hall.

They saw the chamber where hearings take place and the library, as well as getting the opportunity to witness a council meeting. The visitors were accompanied by their Course Coordinator Nadia Hj Adenan and Assistant Hjh Rashidah Hj Ghani. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
