I'm waiting for the Borneo Bulletin online to update themselves so I can copy and paste a section... And the website says "News will be online after 2pm". It's currently twelve minutes past three in the afternoon. Doesn't this just spell out incompetence? Not to mention the tardiness of the BB folk. But then again, who knows? Someone in the office might've gotten a heart-attack or something.
Since the BB can't provide, I have turned to the Brunei Times. Unfortunately, they obviously don't have the article I want to show you.
Ah... Brudirect. How could I ever forget you?

The visiting delegation then went to the canteen to observe a showcase of local traditional games like pasang and congkak.
There was also a demonstration on the process of wrapping local food known as mengelupis, as well as a traditional dance performance by the college's students. At the end of the visit, scouts and girl guides gathered at the administration block to bid the visitors farewell.

Now please turn your attention to the section in bold. As far as I know, we don't have a silat club. And secondly, where's taekwondo??? I could've sworn they were performing. Seriously. But then again, I may be wrong.
