National Day Brunei Darussalam 23 February

Today is National Day in Brunei. To celebrate, there is a parade for the Sultan in Bandar Seri Bagawan, the capital. Thousands of people march past the Sultan in battalions of school groups,



government departments, corporations, and miltary units. It is a peaceful, joyous occassion with brightly coloured uniforms, and lots of flag waving. I feel very privileged to have been there to see it, and to have seen the Sultan of Brunei, even if he was at a distance.

    1. Sophie, you must be on a computer, or a phone. Use Google Maps or Search to locate Brunei. I am glad that my post has piqued your curiosity. ����
