As Brunei Darussalam continues to advance its economic diversification agenda, the Brunei Economic Development Board, BEDB welcomed Members of the Legislative Council for a dialogue session and working visit. The visit focused on strengthening the long-term impact of foreign direct investment, FDI, projects on local employment, Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises, MSMEs participation and national economic growth.

Conducted at the Combined Security Operations Centre (CSOC), Serasa Industrial Park, the session provided Members of the Legislative Council with a closer understanding of BEDB's role in supporting the country's economic priorities under the Economic Blueprint and Wawasan Brunei 2035. The dialogue focused on how FDI projects can be better positioned to generate broader value for Brunei Darussalam, not only through capital investment, but also through job creation, skills development, technology and knowledge transfer, and stronger business opportunities for local MSMEs. The delegation also visited Barramundi Group Sendirian Berhad in Serasa and Muara International Fish Landing.
