AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Royal Household Update: Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah has stripped his daughter-in-law, Pengiran Raabi’atul Adawiyyah, of all royal titles after conduct described as “unbecoming,” citing it tarnished the monarchy’s good name and showed a “lack of respect” toward the Sultan. The palace did not say what she did, but her four children’s titles remain unchanged. Energy & Infrastructure: Brunei’s Department of Electrical Services signed a contract with Sinohydro for Phase 2 of the Bukit Panggal Combined Cycle Gas Turbines Power Station, adding 215MW to strengthen electricity supply and support Brunei Vision 2035. Finance & Markets: A Brunei Capital Market Development seminar on “An Introduction to Sukuk Issuance” drew nearly 100 participants, pushing sukuk as an alternative financing tool to broaden the capital market ecosystem. Regional Cooperation: Brunei and the U.S. kicked off Exercise Pahlawan Warrior 26 at Tutong Camp, with nearly two weeks of jungle and built-up area training aimed at readiness and interoperability. Cruise Tourism: The Chinese-made Adora Magic City began its first international cruise from Shenzhen, with late-August calls including Muara, Brunei. TVET & AI: Brunei’s IBTE held an international webinar on using AI literacy to build future-ready TVET skills.
