MAY 15, MIRI - During last month’s Brigade Council Meeting in Muar, it was an- nounced that Miri was unanimously chosen as next year’s AGM venue.

It is a great honor for Sarawak Boys’ Brigade State Council to host such an important event in the calendar of The Boys’ Brigade in Malaysia.

About 200 Officers, Delegates and Observers throughout the country are expected to attend.

Prior to this announcement at the on-going meeting in Muar, BB Sarawak State Commissioner Hon. Capt. Hii King Ong briefly gave an introduction on Miri. Following that, a powerpoint presentation was given by 4th Miri Capt. Roseline Lee. It received a warm response and applause from the participants.

The BCM2018 Sarawak Committee was formalized after receiving the prayer blessing from Rev. George Wong Hin Hung, the former Chaplain of the Sarawak State Boys’ Brigade. The good shepherd also gave a short exhortation to the committee members present. He urged them to be extra diligent and hardworking in the BB ministry. “You all have the means to reach out to the in- digenous groups of students in the rural areas. You have a duty and you have the capability to do so,” urged Rev George.
