The event began with a group photo session with senior officers of the RBPF followed by HRH consenting to sign a Royal Parchment to commemorate the memorable event.

The highlight of the event yesterday was when the Deputy Inspector General of the RBPF proceded to the dining hall to cut the birthday cake and received a ‘pesambah’ featuring an antique pistol, presented by the Commissioner of RBPF.

Performances by the officers of the Royal Brunei Police Force were also seen to enliven the ceremony.

Before HRH’s departure, he had a chance to meet and greet officers of the RBPF.

HRH the Crown Prince was appointed the position as Deputy Inspector General of RBPF on May 5, 2005, and ever since his appointment, HRH often conducts working visits to RBPF to review and further deepen the roles and responsibilities played as the oldest law enforcement agency in the Sultanate.
