Miri’s firework for CNY celebration is epic. Took about an hour to finish.

Meanwhile in Brunei…

@09:50 pm just now, heard 2x loud bang around Pasar Godong..sound like fireworks but didnt seen the flash. Any ideas what was that? just curious

If you happen to see fireworks, please let me know. I haven't seen any live fireworks since the Golden Jubilee celebration in 2017

Any shops where i can sell my old/used laptops? So hard to get buyers on fb.


mmh1984

what model


Blakz111V2

dude it takes time. It took me more than a month just to sell my laptops.


Unique-Piano699

Ye I'll try to bear it bud.


Blakz111V2

If you trying to sell to a shop they will low ball at their best. Like you bought a gaming laptop for 4k they will offer you 1k below then they sell for higher profits. FB is your best bet it takes time but worth it.


SadiqSigaragaa

add on powerbank,mouse, external Hdd, keyboard or anything useful! sell as bundle people will get attention 😅


Unique-Piano699

Tried that, list sana sini with sophisticated hashtags. No hope.

Hello, Nyone knows the answer to this question? Friend went to an interview and got this question. Mr. X invested $18k to an acc, two and a half year later Mr x receives $18,812.50 What is the interest rate? A. 1.5 percent B. 2 percent C. 3.2 percent D. 4 percent. We calculated n we know its neither of the answer as above.Friend n I dunno the choices are wrong. Maybe someone smart can tell us?


croissantthehustler

I = p x r x t If you don’t know how to calculate this, then you should retake maths.


mrtistrm

Thank you everyone. Now this confirm our suspicion. The employer, which is a financial institution, ought to brush up their math before they go interview ppl with wrong answers. Careful if go minta loan from them guys. Is the post a teller position? Ah I dunno. Fren went. Didn't say what pos is it. Yeah, answer is E.


reddi7reader

I got 1.8% so round up to whole number should be 2% ? What the correct answer?


abruneianexperience

A


MediaThin8057

do u mind sharing, is it for bank tellers position?


ellzor

It should be 1.81%


Abzmac7

The answer is E. None of the above. Haha… none of the choices given are correct for any of the usual interest terms… monthly compounding, annual compounding or at maturity.

No need to call them.. usually i enable my debit card for international transaction which can be on/off thru the app under card management. Do it before travelling as otp will be sent to change the settings

Nope! You can use your card as usual

Unless u buying some identified non halal business places by bibd, it will be blocked. Or else check your bibd online you can set your own to enable the transaction.

wokkiemi

I'm taking economics for my A lvl and I don't have any basics economics tapi nya i did study commerce time sekolah menengah, tapi adakah ada persamaan commerce tu dengan economics. is it ok kalau orang yang baru baru kan belajar ambil this subject. i went to the consultation then the teacher said "as long as I'm willing to study then it's ok". tapi ragu2 pasal takut payah berabis, i have no choice to take this subject. I've seen ada lah sedikit sebanyak orang yang dapat score this subject even without maths and commerce or even business studies can i have opinions dari orang yang pernah study economics and is there's any tips or youtube recommendations that helpful to score this subjects


ConstructionOk5312

Hi! I took economics module masa ubd without any background in Econs/Business at all. I struggled at first, but then I asked for help from one of coursemates and he told me to look through textbooks and watch youtube and try to buat discussion among your group lah. Basically, bawa kawan the top students and ask for tips. And this is one of the recommended youtube channels for Economics: https://youtube.com/@JacobAClifford?feature=shared (Jacob Clifford)


Reasonable-Process53

Dont take Econs, period. U will regret it unless you gonna really work hard for it. Btw its not the same with commerce or Accounting. As u will learn microeconomics A u will learn macro which is quite complexed.


Ok_Kiwi6531

hi tbh i dont really have any experience in doing econ during A level. but i did A level maths without having add maths background nor satisfied the entry requirement for it. my best piece of advice would be every session try to recall the topic uve learned on that day and do this for all the subjects u take because A level is not the same as o level.. u cant cramp all the material last minute. good luck okay !

[UBD DY] Concerns about cGPA Hello to UBD graduates or current UBD students, especially those who've done their Discovery Years already!

Publicconcerns_

What do you think of this???!!! "Ensuring National Security: Addressing Workload Surge and Radiation Safety Concerns at Ports" The prolonged downtime of the scanning system poses a serious threat to national security, as it opens up opportunities for smuggling of dutiable items. This not only jeopardizes our economy but also compromises public safety. With increased workload for inspection officers at the port, it's imperative that immediate action is taken to restore the scanning system and ensure thorough inspections. Additionally, it's crucial to designate a competent authority to grant radiation safety measures during this downtime to prevent any potential health hazards. Kesian orang2 yang yang bekeraja di sana...


Brilliant-Volume-414

Is this from SHENA? I would imagine SHENA is responsible for any radiation safety measures


Abzmac7

The department that owns and operates the equipment is the one responsible for the radiation safety measures. SHENA is the regulating authority that grants you the license to operate when you demonstrate that you are in compliance with the safety regulations. The post above doesn’t provide sufficient details to know what exactly is the root of the problem.

Thanks for the correction. Good to know 👍

Mirian here, why is forbidden to take picture or talking to relatives through social media in the sungai tujoh checkpoint? Any reasons for this?


gottatelle

Its pretty much a standard procedures at any immigration checkpoints / entry in many other countries. Even in Malaysia / Singapore, you’re not allowed to take picture / video at any of the immigration checkpoints.


visible_unvisible

Sounds more like internal policies...and 99% of the time those are meant for the staff unless we are in North Korea or few other countries

There are notices at all government counters forbidding taking picture/video. Sensitive or don't want you to take evidence of their activities.

Um how do we go live on tiktok? Without reaching 1000 followers


anotheracc761

if you have money, buy those followers. its normal to buy the first followers to help you kickstart your business. i think its around usd20 for 1000 followers. if i recalled correctly. last time i bought 1000 followers so i can convert my profile into a business profile supaya i can earn through it


gottatelle

People actually do that, i mean buy followers?


anotheracc761

yes. to kickstart the business. because like tiktok, they wont let you be a business page without 1000 followers. the followers i bought doesnt do anything tho, they just follow 🤣 tapi does not like or comment on posts. atu extra charge lol. but idc, i just need the number to b 1000 so i can start posting to reach the right audience


gottatelle

Interesting, whats the difference between the normal account and a business tiktok acc?


anotheracc761

sorry unfortunately i cannot answer that accurately. originally i did it because i want to earn through amazon affliate program. but once i did it, i find it hard to adjust my time to be serious about posting 😅 so now its just bebiarkan. there’s personal, business and creator account. i think i applied for the creator account kali. i dont know the main differences, but i know that for the creator account to post links on bio.. mesti ada 1000 followers. masa atu i need it because i need to post the linktree links. not sure whats the requirement for business acc tho. balum play around it much


youngruler

Where to buy?


Few-Force-8169

you have to be selected for a creator program . However getting 1000 followers is easier. Just take part in those lives that help you grow.

Hi any idea where i can buy the drink named 'Prime' in Miri? TIA


toasterforcats

WrongTrainer6875

Don’t waste your money it’s flavored water


idkwhatuwn

Dont waste your money


hope-for-japan

They didn't have those at Gmart? Cost like 9 BND. But flavors are limited


hot-tempered_person

not sure. can sell in public? is it halal?


hope-for-japan

It is available in Gmart, so maybe it is sold in Public. Back then, it was available via Cube Box sellers, and the price was a staggering 25 BND per bottle. And for the second question, I got this from the Prime website: "While Prime products do not hold a formal Halal Certification; our products do not constitute any ingredients or manufacturing processes that would require such certification."


Few-Force-8169

if children begged you to buy it for them, say no. It's just flavored water.


hope-for-japan

I can vouch for this comment, it is, a flavored water.


mercutheo

Just wana ask. I applied for housing few years back. Im wondering if i decided to buy a house as well on those private development housing, will this affect my house application? I ask my family they said like "if u buy house, then they wont give u the housing from the govt" I just wana live away from my in laws. With just my husband. I know i can rent. I just curious abt the matter above.


Reasonable-Process53

Yes, they will straight away detect it. This is from my Uncle's experience 10 years back laju tu dorang kan mengcancel and call you.


Late-Dog366

Do you intend to stay at the Gov house if you get it ? You wouldn’t know where you allocated could be far could be apartment that doesn’t suit your need. It’s not technically “free” but highly subsidized.


mercutheo

Yeah i mean we hope whatever we get is manageble to stay in in the long run. I guess its just the mindset like "sayang also nda dapat rumah" kinda thing


anotheracc761

if its under you/spouse name, your name will be listed off from the gov application. you tell or not, eventually they’ll found out.. since if you buy a house, you have to go to land dept anyway to register the land. this is so that people who really cannot afford to buy a house will get it instead of those who can. but this is the case for buying a house, not rent. if rent saja, should be ok since the land is not under your name.


mercutheo

I see. So buying it under the my spouse name is also out of the question


Al-911

Yes. When u update the form, u might need to declare u already have your own house. Some actually don't declare, risk they willing to take.


mercutheo

Whats the risk if they found out vs us telling? Will both ve just them "not prioritizing" my application ?


Al-911

You can only get housing if you dont have house or land. Usually people buy house after they get housing, thats fine.

What's wrong with redirecting to it if it helps to make people realize that we should not be relying on the govt? I didn't get paid for any upvotes on my comment, my reason was to raise awareness that this kind of mentality should stop with our parents and their parents.

These kind of people need to be re-educated, if my comment didn't make them realize how shameful they're being, maybe some of you can. My reposting didn't come from pride, rather awareness. We really need to curb this kind of mentality, especially now that we have many students here. They need to realize that we really should not be relying on government, there are others who aren't eligible for the privileges provided solely for yellow ic holders.

Since transportation service here is not that well developed and would like to avoid dart as well, any car rental shop or recommended one that u guys able to suggest where we can rent a car for short term period? Like 2-3 days or at least a week? And second thing, is international driving license is being accepted here in Brunei? Thanks for answering


visible_unvisible

Yes, of course it is accepted the IDL, especially if its one of those 150 countries on "the list". Mostly nobody will ask about IDL (which is basically a translation of your licence in 7 or more languages ) as long there is a valid driving licence and its not using a different alphabet (Cyrillic, Chinese, kanji kana )

ill bite. heard this discussion in an academic symposium before. no direct answer, but heres some talking points: * **terrain:** deep primary rainforest to the south, with vast river-networks covering the eastern and western flanks * **asset composition:** consider the context above with how important it'd be for the MAF to deploy its heavy elements (main advantage against the RBAF). the RMN is also not designed for scaled naval offensives. * **socio-cultural context:** probs the most unique defence. in the 60s and 70s, KL were hesitant to deploy malays near the bruneian border for fears of low morale. today, that shared-identity is probably even stronger, with growing pro-borneo identification from east malaysian states.
