The Chinese community in Brunei treated His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah ibni AlMarhum Sultan Haji Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Sa'adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang DiPertuan of Brunei Darussalam and members of the royal family to a magnificent show as they celebrated the Chinese New Year of the Rooster at the International Convention Centre (ICC) in Berakas yesterday morning.
Members of the committee for the Chinese New Year 2017 celebrations expressed their gratitude to His Majesty and members of the royal family for attending the event.
Vincent Pao, a member of the committee, said that the get-together celebration would not have been the same without the presence of the beloved monarch as the Bruneians see His Majesty as a man of the people.
Chang Ein Hong, advisor to the committee stated that despite the state of the economy at present, the people should put up more efforts this year to make the celebration a cheerful event with the help of the students at Chung Hwa Middle School, Bandar Seri Begawan (BSB).
Tiah Eng Nee, another committee member, said that the Tiong Hua committee members are always happy to have His Majesty at their Chinese New Year celebration.
