Host global culture festival in Brunei


Saturday, June 2, 2007

BEING an avid fan of our culture and heritage, would the Ministry of Culture, Youth & Sports be open to hosting a global cultural festival in Brunei Darussalam?

I feel that it would be a wonderful occasion where the different cultures throughout the world would be able to showcase their people and heritage.

This would not only make their existence known to people around the world but also help in the preservation of customs and traditions that would otherwise fade away.

It would also provide an insight to the customs and traditions of Brunei and more importantly our culture and heritage would be kept intact in the face of modernisation and globalisation.

Another spin off would be the tourist dollars that we would have collected from tourists who are again able to see Brunei up close and at the same time revel in a wonderful show of the world's culture.
