Empowered Youth, Empower Youth

Brunei Gas Carriers is honoured to support and be a part of the BIBD Youth Empowerment Summit (YES!) 2021 as a Platinum Sponsor. Two main events were held in conjuction with the launch of the summit – The first on 30th November, a virtual signing ceremony which was held for all supporting organisations. Signing on behalf of BGC was Managing Director, Pg Shamhary Pg Dato Paduka Hj Mustapha, where his advice to youth was, “Regardless of whether you hold any leadership authority, there is always one person you are always responsible for leading – And that is yourself”. At BGC, we recognize that people are our key resource. When it comes to functional expertise and leadership attributes, developing people is one of our key strategies in BGC for business sustainability and growth. We believe in having the right people, with the right skills, in the right jobs, who display the right behaviours and share the same commitment. Our support to this programme is part of our commitment and desire to help nurture and strengthen the nation’s aspiration in fueling highly capable individuals for the country’s future talent pipeline. The second main event which took place on 11th December 2021 was the official launch of BIBD YES! 2021 which was officiated by Yang Berhormat Dato Seri Setia Dr Awang Haji Mohd Amin Liew bin Abdullah, Minister at the Prime Ministers Office and Minister of Finance & Economy II as Chairman of the BIBD Board. The event kicked off the 3-week series of talks and saw just under 800 participants in attendance from 15 different countries! BGC is proud to be given the opportunity to provide two mentors for the series of topics under ‘Voluntarism & Community Work’ and ‘Social Enterprise & Impact’. These talks will be taking place over the coming weeks. To find out more, visit the programme curators @curiousmind_bn.
