BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN
His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu'izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar 'Ali Saifuddien Sa'adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam, the Minister of Defence and Supreme Commander of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces in a titah calls on the Royal Brunei Armed Forces to continue strengthening their internal defence, including spiritual and religious resilience in the face of the deviation of ideology.
His Majesty also stresses that the RBAF should give more attention to the country's preparedness or alertness in facing the increasingly worrying cyber threats. His Majesty made the titah at the 56th Anniversary Celebration of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces at the Royal Brunei Navy Base this morning. His Majesty says in its 56 years the RBAF has played its role effectively in maintaining the peace and sovereignty of the country. The responsibility is very big a challenging especially in the borderless world situation. His Majesty adds the technological explosion has also resulted in new threats. The most evident threat today adds His Majesty is the actions of certain parties throughout the world who use various ways to influence the community to sympathise with and support their objectives.
His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam continues the titah saying apart from the threat of 'radicalisation', the cyber threat is becoming increasingly alarming. In this digital era, says His Majesty, the internet plays a role in fulfilling the needs of the country, including those of the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Brunei Armed Forces.
In the field of cooperation, His Majesty hopes that the Ministry of Defence and the Royal Brunei Armed Forces will continue to cooperate with the country's internal security agencies to use a holistic security strategy. His Majesty emphasises that similar cooperation with foreign allies is equally important.
