Gov.bn comes to KB
GOV.BN: More than fifty people were at the GOV.BN roadshow at the Dewan Bandaran of Kuala Belait yesterday afternoon. When VanceTan.com visited the booths yesterday, not many people were present, probably due to the H1N1 scare amongst parents. However, there were still some “nurses” to check for anyone with fever, at the entrance.
Among some of the exhibits included booths from the Prime Minister’s Office, Pelita Brunei, Infofoto, BruCert, as well as a few alike.
It is good that government departments have such exhibitions from district to district as this could increase public awareness about the works of the departments.
According to Saiful, an exhibitor at the E-Registry booth, government employees can start up their own small and medium enterprises as long as they register and notify their office. He added that companies could now register with just a single click at www.eregistry.agc.gov.bn or simply drop by the registration office at 1st Floor, Bangunan Undang-Undang dan Mahkamah-Mahkamah, Kilometer 1, Jalan Tutong, Bandar Seri Begawan, BA1910.

Wash hands, keep flu away: A YouTube video tutorial showing how to clean your hands to keep the deadly virus H1N1 away.
1. Wash your hands with soap and water or clean with alcohol-based hand cleaner.
2. When washing your hands — either with soap and warm water — make sure that you wash for 15 to 20 seconds.
3. If soap and water are not available, alcohol-based disposable hand wipes or gel sanitizers may be used.
4. If you are using gel, rub your hands until the gel is dry. The gel doesn’t need water to work; the alcohol in it kills the germs on your hands.
