Corned Buff?


I read this bloke's post on locally manufactured sauces and immediately decided to take the family down to the local product fair at Huaho Mall in Manggis to find it. Found the elusive Tahai Chili Sauce and I'm a happy camper. I think these sauces are bound for Japan looking at the Kanji script on the labels. Cool!

While browsing around, I came across "corned buff" being sold at one of the stalls. Yeah, corned buff, it stands for corned buffalo. Should've seen that one coming! Anyway, that reminded me of one of the associations that have been struck off the Registrar of Societies' list, the Royal Antediluvian Order of Buffaloes.

I wonder who did the registration and how many members it had. Does anyone know anything about the history of the Brunei Lodge?

This site will remain visible for archive purposes. Thank you and see you over at the new pad !

Lucky Little Lad...

My buddy James was asking me the other day to name 4-6 most influential people in Brunei Darussalam's IT development. It was food for thought and I thought long and hard about this over the last few days and James, if you're reading this, below are my nominees: HRH Crown Prince Al-Muhtadee Bilah - Senior Minister, Prime Minister's Office HRH is very IT savvy and like all the younger generation, is very comfortable with ICT. I had the honour of presenting HRH with a PDA once and he took to it immediately, and I set up wireless internet both in his office at MFA and in his room at the palace so that he could access the internet from his PDA. This was some years ago when wireless was still a novelty. But from this interaction, I could already imagine HRH being the architect of a globalised Brunei (Cyber-Brunei?) where the knowledge economy would thrive. Pehin Dato Adnan - Minister of Home Affairs, former Director of Immigration & National Registration When he was Direct...

AnakBrunei Charity Calendar 2007

Couple of days ago, fellow poklen and rabid blogger Ziq mentioned that he would be placing his order for my calendar. Well Ziq, its time to put your money where your mouth is! Presenting the inaugural, exclusive anakbrunei.org Calendar 2007! It features some of my favorite works from this year. Obviously having to choose only 12 photos out of hundreds means some of my other favorites get left behind... This glossy calendar is printed on photographic quality paper and comes in A4 size ONLY. It's printed individually so you can personalize it with a line of text of your choosing (e.g. names, special message etc) at the bottom. How much is it you ask? Well, it's gonna cost you B$5.00 for each of these babies... WAIT! Before you start thinking its a ripoff, think about this... for every calendar sold, HALF will be donated to SMARTER Brunei - Society for the Management of Autism Related issues in Training, Education and Resources. Pretty good value considering you will be buyin...
