We refer to a letter by Concerned Parents, Lambak, Gadong highlighting a concern on School PE dress code as published in the Borneo Bulletin's Opinion page dated April 3, 2013.

Of late the Land Transport Department is very much preoccupied in introducing or about to introduce new laws: there is the controversial rule on licence plates, there is the Demerit Points, drafting new laws on the licensing of motorcycles, the department is now targeting car accessories and there is now an idea being mooted to have driving schools especially for heavy motor vehicles, and don't forget the department is thinking of retesting the 70-year-old drivers. These laws are introduced all in the name of road safety, they say. But how these new laws will really reduce road accidents remain to be seen.

The awarding of scholarships has evolved over the years. Naturally, the awarding of Government Scholarship is the dream of every potential student who wishes to pursue his/her career of choice. On offer and during interviews these potential students make solemn promises to study hard, follow the rules and regulation as stated by the awarding bodies, be it the Ministry of Education or other ministries. Nearly all will promise to come back and serve the nation. In the majority of cases, many of the students sent abroad return home to serve their beloved country Brunei Darussalam and work regardless of their work environment and whatever package that comes with it.

Thanks to TelBru Sdn Bhd. I applied for a telephone line and eSpeed on March 14, 2013 and until now I am waiting for the phone line to be activated. I really appreciate it.

Is it fair that a company's lucky draw prize be won by their own staff? Yes. This happened at the 2.30pm Tuesday Firemen Circus show at the National Indoor Stadium. We were shocked when we saw the winning lady dressed in the organiser's uniform with the word "management" written on the back who won the iPad. This was really a great disappointment as it turned out that the organiser too stood a chance to win. It is truly the first time a company has dared to allow such unscrupulous act.

I agree with Property Agent's opinion dated April 3, 2013 raising concerns on how Brunei citizens can own perpetuity land when all property purchased through 49,000 PA are to be converted to temporary lease land?

With regards to the Opinion letter written by 'Victim L', in the Borneo Bulletin dated March 30, 2013 on "Waiting to sort out extra high mobile phone bill", DST, firstly, would like to apologise for any inconvenience experienced by the customer.

I read with great interest the end of the recent LegCo meeting. However, it occurred to me that there were still some unresolved issues from last year. I am referring to the issue of property owned under a power of attorney (PA) arrangement. There are too many questions left unanswered and this year's meeting too failed to clarify the issue.

With many scholarship students not wanting to return and many graduates leaving the country after they have finished their bond, why don't we conduct a study to find out the reasons.

A well-known private school in Bandar should review the dress code of their students for physical education (PE) classes.
