More Brunei businessmen facing bankruptcies ask government help


The spiralling number of local businessmen going bankrupt has caused the Brunei Malay Entrepreneurs to ask the government for a monitoring body to check this serious trend.

"There must be a reason why so many of us are facing problems before the courts and the matter should be analysed and a solution found quickly," a spokesman said. The Brunei Malay Entrepreneurs brought up this issue when they held a discussion with the Finance Ministry yesterday. The meeting focused on the difficult money problems the local businessmen faced.

Present at the discussion was the Permanent Secretary Finance Ministry Dato Haji Abdul Rahman while Awang Haji Razali led the Brunei Malay Entrepreneurs. Dato Haji Abdul Rahman in his speech said that the dialogue was to discuss current issues and at the same time find solutions to problems.
