BEDB Stakeholder Dialogue Posted on 17/01/200817/01/2008 By Reedz Pics taken at yesterday’s BEDB stakeholder dialogue held at Sheraton Utama Hotel. Very intense discussions on the specific industry clusters which BEDB reckons Brunei should be going into in the medium to long term. The highest placed clusters were, unsurprisingly, oil and gas related activities. Dato Paduka Haji Eussof Agaki, in his opening remarks said that although prospects for some of the clusters looked dim, things could be fixed easily to brighten the prospects. This involved all stakeholders, government, private sector, and citizens, pulling in the same direction. The key word for the morning was “ALIGNMENT”.
