By Achong Tanjong

Bandar Seri Begawan - All fish lovers in the country will have the opportunity to witness Brunei's first Japanese Koi competition on October 1 at Sykt Biotropical Fish Shop in Kg Bunut from 8am till 4pm.

It is jointly organised by Sykt Biotropical Fish Shop, Gardenia and Hypermart. The competition will showcase high grade Japanese Koi from first to fifth generations.

According to Mr Ricky of Sykt Biotropical Fish Shop, the public are welcome to witness the competition free of charge.

In Brunei, not many people raise Japanese Koi, as the fish is very expensive, he said. He also added that in Brunei one of his customers owns a Japanese Koi measuring up to 80cm (three feet) in length and another two feet long.

The event is organised in response to his customers' requests. Mr Ricky will also sponsor prizes for the winning entries.

"We organise the competition for fun and at the same time we hope to bring together all Japanese Koi lovers to share their views and experiences. It is also to give members of the public the opportunity to have a closer look at the fish," he said.

The competition is only open to the Japanese Koi category and will be judged by invited guests from Malaysia. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin
