Past recipients of the national housing scheme welcomed His Majesty Sultan Haji Hassanal Bolkiah Mu’izzaddin Waddaulah ibni Al-Marhum Sultan Haji Omar ‘Ali Saifuddien Sa’adul Khairi Waddien, Sultan and Yang Di-Pertuan of Brunei Darussalam when the monarch visited RPN Kampong Lugu yesterday.

Awangku Mohammad Sah Doney bin Pengiran Daud and spouse said, “We are truly grateful to have a place of our own, a place we can call home.”

Awangku Mohammad Sah Doney said the couple applied for a house in 2004 and received a unit 19 years later. They previously resided at their parents’ house and now have their own home, which they share with their young daughter.

Shahrun bin Haji Ibrahim @ Sharbini and spouse also received His Majesty at their residence yesterday.

They thanked the monarch and the government. “We were amazed by the modern design of the terrace house,” they said.

The couple applied for housing in 2004 and moved into their new home last June. – Adib Noor
