Last weekend, the Temburong District Office held a briefing for members of the media to promote its tourism programme, "Temburong Bisai", which is schedule to kick off on November 28.
Singapore have their Uniquely Singapore, then Thailand have their Amazing Thailand, then there’s Incredible India, n even Experience Macau, so now we have Wonderful Temburong, which will be the tagline for any event in Temburong, or in malay, we usually have hard time in deciding where to go… Mana bisai ah… Ke anu bisai…. Hence the malay tagline Temburong Bisai …. 😉
