hungry, and resting when tired. One day he came upon a house, where he saw a bowl of the most beautiful apples. He took one in each hand and ran back into the forest. He sniffed the apples and smelled nothing. He tried to eat them, but hurt his teeth. They were made of wood, but they were beautiful, and when the other monkeys saw them, he held onto them even tighter. He admired his new possessions proudly as he wandered the jungle. They glistened red in the sun, and seemed perfect to him. He became so attached to them, that he didn’t even notice his hunger at first. A fruit tree reminded him of his hunger, but he felt the apples in his hands. He couldn’t bear to set them down to reach for the fruit. In fact, he couldn’t relax, either, if he was to defend his apples. A proud, but less happy monkey continued to walk along the forest trails.

used by some of our Bruneians for 'mother'. The perception is that the word 'babu' is used by family of Pengirans but of course that are also non-Pengiran families who used the word as well. In Brunei, our usage for the word mother ranged from the English Mummy or Mum to the Arabic Umi to the Brunei Mama or Babu. Seldom surprisingly I have heard Brunei children used Emak or Ibu even though these are standard Malay. We do use Abah or Bapa. Why Babu? I don't know and I haven't had the time to do a research on how babu came about. I would suggest however that we go back in time. In English, for the meat, we have cows when the animal was still alive but we used beef to call its meat. I read somewhere this is due that in the old days, the common English people spoke English whereas the royalty or those high up spoke in French.

Borders last night and managed to get a couple of books. One very interesting one which I read through last night was this book about hard words. Words have always interested me and the other day when my minister asked whether he should buy the full blown Oxford English dictionary, I said he should. The full blown Oxford English dictionary comes in 20 volumes and each volume is about four inches thick. That my dear, is a lot of words. There are only a handful of people I in Brunei who have the 20 volume dictionary. This dictionary cost some US$800. I am not confabulating this story. You see, knowing words will make one belles-lettres. What I like about our neighbouring country, other than being able to eat Big Macs in the middle of the night, is the bookshop especially Borders. I was there with my colleague and he was busy buying books for his daughter. I was busy with history books. I am very frustrated and it is quite discombobulating without having access to very good books... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/anthropophagous-thoughts.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077527/4215233684307652760' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> 1 comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/anthropophagous-thoughts.html' title='Anthropophagous Thoughts'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/struggling-your-way-through.html" }, "headline": "Struggling Your Way Through","description": "Last week, our ministry\u0026#39;s ladies netball team lost the final to MOE.

our ministry's ladies netball team lost the final to MOE. Congratulations to both teams for making the final. I was happy that our ministry's team had reached the final and I know they practised hard. But I was not expecting our team to win, not because they are not capable or I was not supportive. I realised earlier on that they had a psychological problem. From the outset, they were praying that the last team they wanted to meet was MOE. That team had already beaten them in their minds even before they had physically beaten them in the court. For the record, the ministry's team beat the MOE team in the qualifying round but even that was not enough to assuage them that they could win. Conquering this fear is the most difficult. This is what I called trying to beat the inner demons inside you. I am not trying to be a psychologist, which I am not, but over the years I have seen enough of this attitude, of this behaviour, of this thinking, whatever you called it.

I was trawling through my hard disk and found this photograph. This was taken about three years ago when His Majesty received the Giant Quran as a birthday gift. I wrote about the whole event and also the history behind it. I am hoping that it will be on display one of these days, if it has not already been done so. It is not the world's largest Quran, even though it is big. It is not even the most unique, being the 5th Quran to be handwritten by the group that was commissioned to do it. But it is certainly big. The other big one which people can see is the one placed at the Jame' Asr in a glass cabinet. </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/giant-quran.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077527/3030651733890280669' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> Post a Comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/giant-quran.html' title='The Giant Quran'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/on-friday.html" }, "headline": "On Friday","description": "This is one of the hardest entry to type.

I am a trained typist and being forced to use two thumbs really slows me down. A tweeter would be better. Where is the return key? Cant even do a new paragraph! Found the return key. Today was hectic. When I sent my son to school this morning, my car stalled at a junction. We found a kitten jumping out and another one snapping the two beltings in the engine after the car was towed. What is it about cars and cats? I remembered when I was learning to drive, we were advised to check the car before driving off. I guess not many do it. In my case, the cats were not even ours. I didnt even know there were kittens at the house. But I guess thats no excuse. </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/on-friday.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077527/7510553979071059495' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> 1 comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/on-friday.html' title='On Friday'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/please-help.html" }, "headline": "Fifth Day of Fifth Month Festival","description": "My secretary came in and said that anakbrunei was outside.

She could not or did not know Reeda's name but anakbunei she remembered. So anakbrunei trademark is well and truly established. Anyway anakbrunei's Reeda dropped in my office the other day with a nice surprise - homemade Bakchang. My better half and I tried it for our dinner on the same day. I took a few photos of the bakchang with my phone but I can't find the cabling at the moment to upload the photos here. So I borrowed the photo from Reed's blogsite. This Chinese origin meat dumpling is prepared around this time of the year which is the fifth day of the fifth month of the lunar calendar if I am not mistaken for what Reeda called the Ko Chung festival.

Other than the title, the contents of the two books are similar.

Today I am talking about more money but more recent ones. My sister-in-law's husband (my biras) called me up the other day and said that he had discovered an old piggy box where he has been stashing his coins and dollar notes and he found about 15 pieces of the above and 1 piece of a $5 note. He asked me whether I wanted them. Of course, I told him. I asked him whether he got other tabungs that he could look through. The notes were all used and the valuation would not be very high. About the best one is the one above. The worst has even its corner missing. But give or take another 20 years, even that missing corner note would be worth a fortune. A brand new uncirculated note is currently worth around US$5 but I noticed the prices have been rising. About two years ago, I could still get this for around US$3 but I don't see this price anymore. The interesting bit is that this paper note first introduced in 1989 and was even reprint... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/brunei-1989-paper-money.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077527/3715627616769971982' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> 2 comments </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/brunei-1989-paper-money.html' title='Brunei 1989 Paper Money'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/begawan-money-50.html" }, "headline": "The Begawan Money $50","description": "Yesterday, I managed to get two of the above notes.

The Begawan Series or the 1967 Brunei First Modern Series is still a favourite among collectors. Issued in 1967, it marked the first time that Brunei issued its own currency by its own Currency Board. Prior to that, Brunei currency notes were issued by the Straits Settlements Government and the Malaya-Borneo Board of Currencies. The $50 Begawan Series are rarely available in the numismatic shops. In Kuala Lumpur, an uncirculated note is being sold for around MYR800 and in Singapore for around S$400 and on eBay for around US$300. A used note depending on the condition would be slightly cheaper but not that much cheaper if it is very fine or very good. I chanced upon these notes accidentally. One of our local food blogger recently emailed me telling me that she has recently came into possession of these notes. She asked whether she should deposit it into a bank.

He does not know do it anymore. His trade died out in the 1960s. But when he was doing his trade, he did not have much competition or any competition. Nobody else wanted his job. But if he did not do his job, the whole Brunei Town would suffer. That's how important his job was. I was quite surprised to see this photograph sometime last year during an exhibition on World Water Day organised by our Public Works Department. When I was compiling volume 2 of my book, there was an article about the subject matter and I remembered this particular photograph and asked the Water Department whether I could have a copy of this photo to go with my book. Yesterday I received this photograph and a few others. So, what did he do for a living? He collected human wastes from toilets. Prior to the 1960s, toilets in the town were mostly bucket toilets.

No disrespect to the nurses or the medical staff doing the procedures but apparently I am born with a delicate very deep vein which no one can find in one go. This bruised pincushion is something I undergo everytime I go to either our general hospital or the private hospital. I am the only one I think who had been passed to all the 'ambil darah' staff at the hospital as each one tries their luck at finding that vein. There was one time I had all of them and then I got sent down to the lab for the lab technician there to try his luck. At first I thought it was our general hospital staff who I thought are inexperienced but for the last few years when I go to the private hospital, it was a similar problem. Since then, I have learned to live with this problem.

The idea is that the language we speak both affected and reflected our own views of the world and since the Eskimos lived in a snowy world, they should have more words for snow. Though there is some argument how many words the Eskimos actually have for snow. In a popular 1940 article on the subject, the writer referred to Eskimo languages having seven distinct words for snow. Later writers inflated the figure: by 1978, the number quoted had reached 50, and on February 9, 1984, an editorial in The New York Times gave the number as one hundred. I have not studied neither do I have the time to do it - I would love to know how many Brunei words are there for fishing. Bruneians until the early 20th century were fishermen and seafarers. We used to have many fishing and sailing traditions but they seemed to have disappeared completely. Perhaps someone from the Brunei Studies Academy can look into this. Why do I ask?

In today's corporate America where there are lots of unemployment, many people find jobs by 'temping' which is to work for companies temporarily while hoping to find full time employment. Scott Adams, the founder of Dilbert, last week had a short series of these 'temps'. Dilbert's boss' secretary went away for a short holiday and the temps came in. The first cartoon about the temps was this particular one about a former Ambassador to Brunei. I know Adams wanted to emphasise the point about the temp being overly qualified by being an Ambassador but I am quite surprised to see Brunei being mentioned. He normally used a county called Albonia or something similar. I remembered my time in USA. The travel agents I spoke to either did not know Brunei at all or if they knew it, they had no idea where it is. In the end I chose a travel agent which had an Asian staff as she was about the only one who knew ... </div> <a class='snippet-fade r-snippet-fade hidden' href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/ambassador-to-brunei.html'></a> </div> </div> <div class='post-bottom'> <div class='post-footer float-container'> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-1'> <span class='byline post-comment-link container'> <a class='comment-link' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment/fullpage/post/20077527/4304980646917333944' onclick=''> <svg class='svg-icon-24 touch-icon'> <use xlink:href='/responsive/sprite_v1_6.css.svg#ic_mode_comment_black_24dp' xmlns:xlink='http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink'></use> </svg> <span class='num_comments'> Post a Comment </span> </a> </span> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-2'> </div> <div class='post-footer-line post-footer-line-3'> </div> </div> <div class='jump-link flat-button ripple'> <a href='http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/ambassador-to-brunei.html' title='Ambassador to Brunei'> Read more </a> </div> </div> </div> </div> </article> <article class='post-outer-container'> <div class='post-outer'> <div class='post'> <script type='application/ld+json'>{ "@context": "http://schema.org", "@type": "BlogPosting", "mainEntityOfPage": { "@type": "WebPage", "@id": "http://bruneiresources.blogspot.com/2009/04/world-according-to-stercus-accidit.html" }, "headline": "The World According to Stercus Accidit","description": "One of my friends keeps a blog entitled \u0026#39;the world according to stercus accidit\u0026#39;.

Petronas especially during Hari Raya and Chinese New Year. She has a unique talent in turning 3 minutes into something really meaningful. Yesterday I read about her doing a clip for Singapore's Ministry of Community Development, Youth and Sports about the family. I had to see it for myself. In fact I found two videos. The first one is about a story between a daughter and her father. The other is about the love of a wife, interestingly enough the setting was a funeral. The second one is very moving. I hope these videos can remind us of our own families, the love of our families going through the good and bad times. Just in case you can't see the video, you can watch it yourself directly on youtube.

This picture of Muara Port came from a BEDB presentation about the Pulau Muara Besar project (PMB is that island opposite the Port). For some reason when I saw the photo of the port, it really reminded me of my time when I was a Ports Officer. Many many years ago, my then Permanent Secretary had a policy that whenever a Division II or I officer goes on leave from one of the departments under the Ministry of Communications, he would try to put one of the Ministry's officers acting in that department. So during my stint at MOC, I ended up working for a few weeks at various departments and one of them was as a Ports Officer at the Ports Department. In the late 1980s, our Ports were starting to have competition from various ports around the region, there is Miri Port, Baram Port or Port Baram if you want to save yourself some embarrasment by saying the wrong thing.

It is very very humid out there.

I leave last Sunday's article in the Brunei Times on the history of Brunei through other people's eyes:- +++++ BRUNEI’S recent history from the 18th century onwards is well documented. We can go to the British records and use those records. But as we go further into the past, historians have to rely on many sources. Some of them are not entirely accurate especially those that was passed down the generation or word of mouth or oral tradition. However, other sources are hard to find and not as easily available as one would have like. Brunei’s ancient history in most cases is written by somebody else.
