The push to strengthen the capabilities of our Bruneian workforce is evident in the directions given for any projects, especially mega projects and Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) activities, in line with the Government of Brunei Darussalam’s strategic goal to build and strengthen human capacity and competence of its people.
