The bags of garbage collected by volunteers at Jerudong beach
Brunei-Muara - A staggering 872kg of waste was collected in two hours at the Jerudong beach during a cleaning campaign yesterday.
Non-profit organisation The Beach Bunch gathered 148 volunteers from Duli Pengiran Muda Al-Muhtadee Billah College, Brunei Shell Marketing Company Sdn Bhd, Brunei Shell Ladies, Brunei Adventure Recreation Association (Bata), Brunei LNG (BLNG) and residents of Kampung Jerudong in the beach clean-up.
The waste was segregated into different categories for records and possible recycling; including 730kg of general waste, 140kg of plastic bottles, and 2kg of aluminium.
Sherlly Tanana, treasurer for The Beach Bunch, said the NGO was trying to create awareness about the importance of protecting the environment.
She said that it was encouraging to see the younger generation helping out and asking questions such as what were recyclables.
"It's good to see them inquisitive and caring about the environment.
She hopes that when people see it as a norm to see a clean beach, they will help to keep it clean on their own initiative.
"It feels good that we are doing something for Mother Nature," said 17-year-old Richard Carson, a Maktab Duli student involved in the beach clean-up.
Another student, Sherbini Husaini, 17, said: "I'm happy to know the beach is safer for people and animals, because even broken glass was found on the beach."
"Taking part in the clean-up was tiring but after seeing all the trash, I feel grateful that much of it was collected, said 17-year-old Nadia Suhaili, another Maktab Duli student.
Tang Siang Thai, a 19-yearold Maktab Duli student, said that there was a big difference before and after the clean-up. "I hope we do this often so that the beach can remain clean."
Another Maktab Duli students, Muhd Ashyiq Masri, 16, said that it felt liberating" to help clean the beach.
There were 110 Maktab Duli student involved in the cleaning campaign, while the remaining 38 volunteers were from the private companies, associations and the public.

Mr Steven Denby presenting his talk at the workshop
Acting Principal speaking at the event
Bandar Seri Begawan - The Duli Pengiran Muda Al-Muhtadee Billah College yesterday held a one-day Shakespeare Day at the college's auditorium. The guest of honour was the Assistant Director of Inspectorate Department, Hjh Zarina Dato Hj Abu Zar.
Yesterday's event began with the recital of surah alFatihah and a welcoming note by Acting Principal Dyg Marina Chek Bujang who amongst all noted that literature studies are becoming increasingly popular in Brunei as more and more schools in Brunei are introducing the subject into the curriculum.
Yesterday was chosen as an appropriate day to hold the event as it significantly fell on Shakespeare's birthday in 1564 and co-incidentally, the day he actually died in 1616.
In his 52 years work, Shakespeare was believed to have written 36 plays, 154 sonnets and two poetic novels and has been the subject of countless books, articles and studies. It is said that on any given day somewhere in the world, a new work is published about him or his work.
The last 25 years has also seen his works translated into Arabic and Mandarin and some works can be found in Indonesian, thus instead of waning, his popularity level of interest in his work is increasing worldwide.
She further disclosed that as the year 2000 approached, a study was conducted to determine what had been humanity's greatest artistic achievement with thousands of prominent people were asked to nominate their favourite work of art, the one that best exemplified*the pinnacle of artistic and intellectual accomplishment.
In this study, winning the range of nominations that included Michelangelo's paintings in the Sistine Chapel, Leonardo's Mona Lisa, the Taj Mahal and others, was Shakespeare's Hamlet, a play believed to have been written in 1599 and was regarded as the peak of what we had achieved as an expression of who we are as humans.
Following the welcoming note, the event continued with a speech by the keynote speaker, Head of English, Literature and Drama Department at Jerudong International School, Mr Steven Denby. The morning's session concluded with workshops on 'Hamlet', 'The Tempest' and 'Twelfth Night'.
Later in the afternoon, students comprising literature students from several schools, performed stage performances on Shakespeare. -- Courtesy of Borneo Bulletin

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, Rabu - Seramai 37 orang pelajar berserta guru pengawas Maktab Duli Pengiran Muda Al-Muhtadee Billah baru-baru ini melakukan ekspedisi menerokai Gua Niah Sarawak di dalam siri lawatan sambil belajar mereka.
Menurut seorang guru pengawas 'Environmental Friendly Club' maktab itu, lawatan seperti ini bertujuan untuk memantapkan lagi pengetahuan pelajar mengenai alam sekitar terutamanya persekitaran yang tidak terdapat di Negara Brunei Darussalam seperti hutan batu kapur dan gua besar seperti Gua Niah.
Di samping itu dengan mendekati alam sekitar juga diharap para pelajar akan lebih menghargai keindahan alam dan seterusnya akan berusaha untuk menyelamatkan bumi dari pencemaran dan kerosakan.
The first student-run, student-funded magazine called "College Portfolio" was among the many items on sale during the bazaar held by the Parent-Teacher Association (PTA) of the Duli Pengiran Muda Al-Muhtadee Billah College (Maktab Duli) at the college's premises yesterday.
Publishers of the magazine, Zuratul Zulkifli and Syazwi Shahif, Upper Sixth students, decided to start the magazine because they wanted to build a good resume for their future. "We really wanted to start a business together and thought that publishing the magazine will look good in our resume, increasing our chance in getting a scholarship to study abroad," said the 18-year-old Zuratul. "I think this is also the first student magazine in Brunei to be funded and run by students themselves," Zuratul added proudly.
The termly magazine mostly covered events at the college as well as articles related to studying and social news. It also includes a review of universities in the UK so "students will not make the wrong choice" in choosing which universities to go to for further study.
On the subject of funding the magazine, Zuratul said that the "crew" raised the money themselves.
"We organised many activities to collect the money needed to publish the magazine," she said adding that for the first publication, they sold items they made themselves and also organised car boot sales to collect money.
They collected more than $1,000 to cover the printing and creative costs and produced 400 copies, ready for sale at an initial price of $6.90 each but reduced to $4 each to attract more buyers.
Other booths in the bazaar sold various items such as clothes, CDs, books and hand-made items. One of the most popular destination was the booth selling fruits and marshmallows dipped under a chocolate fountain.
"The bazaar aimed to strengthen the relationship between students, parents and teachers by getting them here and communicating with each other," said the college's Head of Sports Pg Hj Ali Shafie Pg Hj Abas. "I also hoped that the bazaar showed the students a glimpse of how it feels like to run a business as well as taught them how to work well in a team," he added.
The college's PTA will also be organising a car boot sale to be held at the school's car park from 8am to 4.30pm today.
The postponed Walkathon last year (due to the H1N1 virus) is finally here! Saturday, 10th April 2010, students arrived in the Gymnasium for registration and proceeded to field for aerobics to prepare for the walk.
