The Royal Brunei Navy (RBN) yesterday bade farewell to one of its coastal patrol crafts, KDB Pemburu, in a decommissioning ceremony held at the Muara Naval Base.
Present as the guest of honour was the Commander of RBN, First Admiral Pengiran Dato Seri Pahlawan Norazmi bin Pengiran Haji Muhammad, who declared the decommissioning of KDB Pemburu.
The Squadron Commander of RBN's Coastal Patrol Craft Squadron, Lieutenant Mohammad Aliashim bin Alias, RBN, led the ceremony and presented the Brunei Darussalam flag, Navy Ensign and commissioning pennant to the Commander of RBN to mark the completion of KDB Pemburu's four
