RTB/RTM Radio Programme Back By Popular Demand

A co-production project for radio programmes between Brunei Darussalam and Malaysia has been held continuously under the memorandum of understanding between both countries.  One of the recorded programmes under the project was ‘Bermukun’, MOU between Radio Television Brunei and Radio Television Malaysia, Kuching.

The co-production project among other things aims to further enhance the cultural relationship between the two countries.  The recorded project was not only carried out in the studio, but also in an open area with the aim of encouraging the public participation in upholding the project.  The programme ‘Bermukun’ was first introduced six years ago by both broadcasting stations alternatively and it was recorded through the telephone.  Due to encouraging response from the

public and listeners in the country as well as in Kuching, Limbang and Bintulu, ‘Bermukun’ has became popular and has been continuously developed.  A total of five ‘Bermukun’ programmes have been recorded, two of them were recorded Friday in conjunction with the 58th birthday anniversary of His Majesty the Sultan and Yang Dipertuan of Brunei Darussalam next year, and the upcoming Hari Raya Aidil Fitri celebrations.  While the other three were recorded Thursday at the RTB studio. 

The co-production project is one of the agreements under the 12th Co-Executive Committee Meeting RTB/RTM, which was held early last month in Bandar Seri Begawan.
