Bahtera

I went walkies in Bandar the other day. Not much crowd over the weekend in Bandar. Maybe its the Puasa month. people staying at home becos everyones hungry. haha. I went to that statue of HM's 60th anniversary at the Tambing...and stood there wondering. Is that going to be something that people would associate with Brunei? Singapore has its Merlion, Malaysia has its Tugu and Brunei has...that?? And its significance is only last year. This year, it means nothing. Why cant someone think of something better to display. What about a potrait of HM in stone? That would be something worth taking pictures with.


The other 'statue' we have thats soooo much better is the Bahtera smack in the middle of the lagoon. That is beautiful!!! And it looks so good taken from any angle.

Brunei has...that? The architects, the designers, the corporates, the ministers, the city planners,the sponsors, and all those people, just couldn't think of anything better than...that!!! They could have build a ferries wheel ( Brunei eye)or a fountain splurging the water from the Brunei river high to the sky (the highest in the world, so to inlcude in the GWB of record).

And that my friend will make everyone happy and proud of our country and a real gift to our beloved King.
