HARI RAYA @ SULTAN PALACE

Every 3rd Day of the festive Hari Raya or Eid, scouts from all over the country visit the Royal Family at the Sultans' Palace. Scout members rise early and queue for hours just to get places in one of the largest palaces in the world. This is a chance to see and shake the hands of their beloved king. The Sultan is also the Royal Patron of Brunei Scouts Association. 

It was also a time where we meet other scout members we have not seen for a long time. Hari Raya is about visiting and meeting fellow Muslims and for us its other scouts. It was magical to meet long time friends and meet new ones and have great food in the Sultans' Palace. Our troop wishes and scouts and Muslims around the world, Eid Mubarak!.

1st JULY SCOUT DAY & TROOP IFTAR @ BURGER KING


The Brunei Scout Association was first formed on the 1st July 1933. That is why every year there is an event to mark the occasion. This year 1st July is in the Holy month of Ramadhan. This year the troop decided to commemorate by doing something cool for a change, which was Iftar in Burger King. It was also to celebrate one of the members birthday which falls on the 2nd. July. All these and the special offers Burger King was offering. Its all the more reason to celebrate! 

"Selamat Hari Pengakap dan Selamat Menyambut Bulan Syawal yang menjelang".
