The Environmental Studies/Geography and Development/Tourism programmes had the first of two exam board meetings on Saturday, 3 December 2011.
Issues discussed included GenNext module and non-GenNext course grades. Other matters such as research directions and next semester's teaching load were also tabled.

What better way to end an intense three-hour meeting than with some makan? The programme lunch took place the same day at the Tarindak d'Seni in Bandar Seri Begawan. Business chatter and serious faces were replaced by laughter, smiles and industrious eating.
One of the mainstays of the Tarindak menu is the famed ambuyat. Some of our expat colleagues took the opportunity to sample the unique delicacy for the first (and perhaps last?) time.

Drs Yusnani, Edgar and Ken were (more or less) positive about the ambuyat experience. John was more enthusiastic, describing the ambuyat as "beautiful".

Glad to see this meeting and lunch. I too arranged a meeting at one of meeting space San Francisco and arranged lunch too after it. Hired special catering service there who prepared delicious lunch that was loved and enjoyed by all.
