Quick update: A (H1N1) arrived in Brunei

One confirmed case of H1N1: The Ministry of Health has confirmed the first case of swine flu or influenza A (H1N1) in Brunei Darussalam. The case is of a 19 year old Bruneian who had just arrived in the country from the United Kingdom.

Tests are carried out and the patient is confirmed positive with the virus. The said patient (whose name [and thus gender] is still undisclosed at the moment) who is said to be in a stable condition, is being quarantined at the Pengiran Muda Mahkota Pengiran Muda Al-Muhtadee Billah hospital in Tutong.

In addition, the patient is said to have contracted the virus more than 12 hours after her flight arrived in the country, thus other passengers aboard the same flight (BI098) from London Heathrow on June 16th are not contacted. [Courtesy of Muaz]

Wardun saves the day as DPMM FC win League Cup: WARDUN YUSSOF answered his critics by pulling off two back-to-back saves in DPMM FC’s 4-3 penalty shoot-out win in the final of the Singapore League Cup against Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) FC last night, earning the Bruneians the title of the first foreign team to lift a trophy in Singapore football.

Coming under fire for looking less than confident between the sticks lately, the goalkeeper put those accusations aside at the Jalan Besar Stadium in Singapore to save shots from midfielder Masahiro Fukasawa and defender Razaleigh Khalik with captain Rosmin Kamis coolly slotting home the winning penalty after the scores at extra-time read 1-1.
