Brunei Darussalam 13 September 2010. Nearly 100.000 people flocked for the last of three days to Istana and I was one of the well-wishers greeted His Majesty and other member of the Royal family of Negara Brunei Darussalam. An annual Royal Hari Raya open house at Istana Nurul Iman when closed to 36.000 on the third day or final day were myself and other Executive Committee member of The Empire Hotel & Country Club pay tribute to His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah and other member of the Royal family.
The open house event at Istana is awesome moment. Every touch point is an experience from the moment enter the gate of the palace, VIP lounge experience, culinary experience, connect with people from different country and different look, queuing moment, exterior to interior and the most is to be with the king in the biggest palace in the world. And credit to Rahman our Front Office Manager who arranged this visit with VIP treatment.
This massive annual open house gathering is very high potential to draw the world attention. It will be fantastic publicity and great way to create awareness for Negara Brunei Darussalam brand globally. If I have the opportunity thus there is a miracle can allow me to do something on this special occasion I will do the following; ( First ).
