Welcome to BIT 2011<br />
Assalamualaikum Warahmatullahi<br />
Wabarakatuh and Greetings,<br />
All praise be to Allah, the Lord <strong>of</strong> the<br />
Worlds. Peace and blessings <strong>of</strong> Allah be<br />
upon our Prophet Muhammad and on his<br />
family and companions, and all those who<br />
follow him in righteousness.<br />
Time is rapidly encroaching with less than<br />
a month left in the countdown to the<br />
BIT 2011. As tickets are now being sold,<br />
preparations in terms <strong>of</strong> performances<br />
and the setup <strong>of</strong> the Indoor Stadium at<br />
the Hassanal Bolkiah Sports Complex<br />
are well underway, we are just as excited<br />
as you are in the anticipation for the<br />
performances that will be presented by<br />
participating countries. A salute goes<br />
to the Royal Brunei Armed Forces for<br />
the celebration <strong>of</strong> its 50th Anniversary<br />
<strong>of</strong> its establishment. We are especially<br />
proud to present bands and performances<br />
from Brunei Darussalam, Australia, the<br />

spectacular pageantry and stirring family<br />
entertainment, while also providing a<br />
unique opportunity for our local bands<br />
to showcase their talents and tradition.<br />
The participation <strong>of</strong> bands from other<br />
countries aims to enhance the connection<br />
<strong>of</strong> our local bands to the international<br />
community as it honours the virtues <strong>of</strong><br />
military service in general and the tradition<br />
that represents the highest accountability<br />
and commitment <strong>of</strong> a citizen to their<br />
community at home and across the world<br />
for many years to come.<br />

the BIT 2011 without the generosity <strong>of</strong><br />
