Brunei: Mumong Community Centre Development Survey


Thank you to those who were able to attend the Mumong Town Hall on 7th December. The following areas were discussed:

- BFB has received a NAAFI grant to renovate the hall next to the Patio Bar. It was agreed that this is a useful space for children to play so the area will be divided in two, one part to be a relaxed coffee shop style area and the other with robust bean bags for children to use.

- While the renovation takes place, the hall next to the Patio Bar will be opened for children to use with parental oversight. The NAAFI staff is not responsible for the behaviour of those in the room and will call the Duty Officer if they deem it to be unsafe.

- Once the coffee space is in place, NAAFI will open for coffee mornings. NAAFI is looking to expand the food on offer in Mumong as the renovation takes place.

- A request was made to extend the time that children are allowed in the bar area beyond 2100 hrs. A survey will be distributed to understand community views on this, with an extension to 2230 hrs proposed.

- A Mumong Social Committee will be convened to implement the renovation of the hall and to work with the NAAFI Manager to implement events in the Patio Bar like Quiz nights / Karaoke etc. If you are interested, please contact Mike Collins at mcollins@naafi.co.uk.

- The Patio Bar and adjacent hall are available for hire from the NAAFI for functions.

- The issue of poor lighting around the Mumong Community Centre was raised; lights are in place but not currently on and DIO will investigate.

- If you have any further suggestions or would like to get involved, please contact Naomi at Naomi.Ozanne100@mod.gov.uk or Mike at 
mcollins@naafi.co.uk.
