Societal Quest Segment

2012-03-20T23:01:00.002+08:00

In tonight's segment, Dj Khalz and Dj Jaz ask the fans why people are never satisfied with their achievements and would work until they become restless which affects their mental and physical health in long term. The person who gave their thoughts get a chance to win 3 movie tickets sponsored by MVISION Cinema Empire.

ACHIEVEMENT!!

Our lovely fanbase has spoken!

From Facebook:

Emie R AR People are in the pursuit of meaning in their lives especially in these times of celebrating individuality. So, people are always competing with each other whether they know it or not. In terms of achievement, especially at the workplace, our minds and bodies are either working together or working for our job role. For example, the ballerina pushes herself to train hard even to the point of pain...for the satisfaction of being a great performer. The footballer. The bodybuilder. The accountant. The manager. To these individuals, I'd say...if that is how they gain satisfaction in themselves, then that's that. But once you've reached *the* point of pain/satisfaction, time to step back :) Apologies for long text!

Hazeerul Hiqmal because kadang2 people mau lagi kan achieve lagi yang tinggi2.. macam kirakan pangkat doran atu 'C' tapi dorang mau highest lagi daripada atu.. then.. kadang2 mental dorang tergendala mengakibatkan mereka terlelah, dan.. kitani jgn jua terlampau memikirkan macam results 'o' level. ani tah membuat kitani orang brunei stress dan dpress.. ada jua yg bekeraja 24jam sampai inda terfikir keluarga mereka..... otot2 dan darah sarap kitani berjalan hanya 5 ke 7 jam.. bukan 24jam, kitani bukannya ''computer'' dan juga teknologi yang canggih boleh bekerja 24 jam, tidak akan terjadi.... ;)

Malique Ali Ok. I'll try my best to answer this question. We as humans but not all of us though, sometimes tend to not be satisfied with oneself. It's human nature, its our typical habit. We want more, we want to try something new, this act is called curiosity. For example, if we were satisfied with the ability of walking, we would not be driving a car. Right? Due to this, the urge to want more, the urge to try something new makes a restless physically and mentally and I would personally say that this people are hard working people. Thanks :D

Congratulations to our 3 commentators for giving your thoughts and winning your movie tickets. Good luck and have fun :) Don't forget to tune in to Societal Quest every Tuesday at 9-11 pm!

Love @ Cinta: Open Relationship

2012-03-19T22:58:00.001+08:00

whats your views on open relationship?

from some of our fabulous listeners:

mallyn_mohaimin: It could hurt people's feelings. Infact, relationship is not a thing that we could just play around with. If we love some, go for it.

Sam Mirza Simple, open relationships aren't relationships at all.

Shukri : relationships, OPEN or not are in the eyes of the beholder. If your in it and believe in it, don't give a crap what others say

· Open

from the crew: Open Relationship is a waste of time, instead of that, why not just be friends?

Someone posted saying that Open relationship is NOT a real relationship. What say you beautiful people? :D

Adli Abd. Karim :still a legit relationship. We don't 'own' each other in any kind of relationship except marriage anyway. What right do we have?

#Syed Halawi: "mindset...classification of bias judgment process."

#Lia Hmb: "‎'chronicethnocentrism'! When people thought their own culture is 'more superior' thanothers..."

#Adli Abd. Karim‏:"...is that we're different in the first place."

#Honest Bruneian: "because manypeople are still brought up to ridicule and discriminate against whoever isdifferent from them."

#Nuranisah HL:‏"It's more like why some individuals disrespect other's culture when theywere taught good values from birth."

#Mirza Irsyaduddin: ‏"becausethey think the other cultures live easier than them when they are just thesame. They are no excuses for disliking other races."

Societal Quest Segment

2012-03-06T22:55:00.000+08:00

Tonight's segment, entitled Societal Quest gives you a whole lot of phenomena, as for now what do you think about this! :D

"The branded products that you possess and parade around shows your personality and who you are"

AND...here is what our listeners said about it..

Amal Kasim - "I don't think so. Of course people may judge you based on your fashion sense, but there's no need to strut around with branded accessories to show your personality. I personally don't own a lot of those products because I want to show them off to people so that they'll think of me as a cool or up-to-date person. I bought the things because I like the designs or comfort. It's actually goes down to a person's mentality and their approaches to things. I for one certainly don't find people who parade around with expensive products but with sucky personalities."

S. xiaowei ‏ - "Yes it does! what we feel will definitely be reflected by our actions".

So guys have your say for the next topic next week, same segment brought to you by UBD FM - Your station for the next generation!

Tonight's Love@Cinta Hot Topic!

Do couples take relationship status a little too seriously?

What do guys think? ;)

TWEETS ;

Nadzirah Sidup : maybe to make someone jealous hehehehe or just to show off people that they have partner :p

Vhello iFuentes :Some people thinks that it so seriously, to me, relationship is not necessary in FB.

Shukri : its a byproduct of insecurity, trust issues etc. If your confident with each other, you wouldn't care.

Sam Mirza : Yes, if they want to show how much they love their boyfriend or girlfriend, say it to their partners, not show it off online.

Afiqah Daud : some yes and some no. it depends on the couples. if they are someone who takes things seriously then yes and vice versa. -but to me, stating that you're in a relationship w someone in FB isn't really necessary. you don't really hv to tell everyone.

ZPS™ ‏ : maybe yes, maybe no. RT @UBDFM IS COUPLE RELATIONSHIP STATUS ON FACEBOOK REALLY A BIG DEAL FOR YOU? :D

FB COMMENTS ;

Zubaidah Har : for some maybe yes..but i would disagree with that..I don't really need the status relationship to be official with my partner.

Deeny Yahya : nope...but it's very sad that a lot of ppl especially the young generations take relationships like so easy come easy go... - banyak yang ambil mudah pasal relationship ani...it's like a relationship to them is something to toy with...its like a test drive for them...kalau inda suka sudahtah...habis madu sepah dibuang...

Nischa Rani : nahh..i tink they just put the relatonship status just to show they r in relationship? nothing serious.

Ameera Ali : nope... facebook is just one way to make a relationship public

Theodora Ang : most do. not all.

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN, 29 Feb - Seorang lelaki Cina warga tempatan yang mengamuk sambil membawa sebilah pedang sepanjang kira-kira 1 meter berjalan kaki dari pusat bandar sehingga ke Gadong, berjaya diberkas polis selepas dua jam penuh drama malam ini.

Insiden menggemparkan itu bermula kira-kira jam 8.00 malam apabila lelaki berkenaan keluar dari keretanya lalu mengamuk berdekatan perhentian bas depan Mahkamah Syariah, Bandar Seri Begawan.

Sebaik sahaja polis tiba di situ untuk menenangkannya, lelaki tersebut terus mengambil sebilah pedang dari dalam keretanya lalu berjalan menentang arus sambil mengarahkan kenderaan yang datang supaya berhenti, menyebabkan berlaku kesesakan jalan raya yang teruk.

Bimbang dia akan bertindak ganas, anggota-anggota polis dengan dibantu oleh Pasukan Unit Simpanan Polis pergerakan lelaki itu berjalan mundar mandir sehingga ke Gadong sebelum berjaya memberkasnya di dalam sebuah pasar raya tidak jauh dari pusing keliling Gadong kira-kira jam 10 malam ini.
Polis kini sedang menjalankan siasatan bagi mengenal pasti identiti lelaki berkenaan dan punca dia bertindak demikian.

Societal Quest segment with Dj Khalz and Dj Maxine

2012-02-28T23:03:00.000+08:00

Today's segment, our DJ will discuss "How materialistic the youth of Brunei become?" Materialistic or most commonly known as materialism is the desire to consume and acquire material goods. The main reason that drives the youth to become materialistic is due to money and importance of materials in this generation. Parents prioritize the money therefore money is very important as goods are getting more expensive and technologies are getting more important especially during this era.

A young boy with lots of money!

Furthermore, those youth who happens to find a career and getting a salary tends to spend on products that are far more expensive. They will likely to regret this in the near future due to loans and other needs they need to pay. The important thing we need to learn here is to save up money as much as possible and whenever the money is absolutely needed then it is a priority to spend on it. As for mobile devices, youth are now updated with current fashion and usually are ahead with their respective older friends and families.

So whatever you do guys, save up your money and you won't regret it for your whole lifetime! Don't forget to catch up another 'Societal Quest' same day and same time, which is every Tuesday from 8pm to 11pm. Stay tune with us at UBDFM, Station For The Next Generation.

Love @ Cinta Topic for Tonight!

2012-02-27T22:19:00.000+08:00

The discussion topic of tonight's Love@Cinta show is,

"Is flirting with someone while you're in a relationship considered as cheating?"

Gender is an inescapable part of our psychological makeup. So, receiving a smile or glance or something else similarly flirtatious is a balm to the ego and a reaffirmation of one’s being attractive enough to be noticed by the opposite sex. Mild flirtation of that sort is perfectly acceptable in a committed relationship. Unless we are going to force our women into a life similar to that forced upon women in Saudi Arabia or Afghanistan, flirting will occur inevitably. Men should be able to resist casual flirtation and be able to respond to it in a socially appropriate manner.

Flirting becomes inappropriate when either the words spoken or the conduct definitely suggests a strong desire to have the relationship become physical. It also become inappropriate when one person uses the flirtation to tease or distract the other person to the point that the receiver of the flirtation is exposed to social or physical harm.

Good news to all Potter fans or Rowling's fans! J.K Rowling had a book deal but this time, she'll be writing an adult novel.

It seems like the 9gag.com spreads like fire across Brunei. We love the rage meme comic that was shared around social networks. Even in UBDfm studio and lounge, we always have 9gag website open on our computers. If you don't know what's they hype about 9gag, go google it and enjoy. Maybe you can do it next week? During the semester break which starts next week? :)

Tonight's chapter, 'That's so Bruneian' is brought to you by Dj Maxine and Dj Iman about things that relates to Brunei Darussalam particularly anything! Below are the things that can be thought about during the night by our listeners :)

#1. 'Ambuyat' - This is a kind of delicacies that is so well known to Bruneians and it is the first notion that will bring about when people converse about Brunei. The word symbolizes Brunei Darussalam's traditional asset and, therefore, it should not be extinct from our life.

#2. 'Nasi Katok' - DJ Iman has shared his favourite Nasi Katok which is believed to locate at Madang and Lambak Kiri and he said that their 'Sambals' are the best, is it true? Then that is for you to find out ;) Nasi Katok is mostly comprises of rice, fried chicken and the most important one is the Sambal. There are a lot of Nasi Katok stalls mushroomed at Brunei Darussalam and each one has its own taste that what makes it so special to Brunei.

#3. Brunei's phrases like 'Maskuah' and 'Rileksha' - Why such phrases happened to Bruneians? Some say it is not nice to be heard and it a form of lazy statement. Well it is up to each one of us to determine what the real reason for it to happen.

#4. Durian - Which one do you like, white or orange coloured-skin durian fruit? When you see that there is a lot of durian on the streets then its time for Durian Season! :)

SoCieTal Quests 21/2

2012-02-21T22:52:00.002+08:00

Tonight's societal quests topic is how do films affect individuals and society? We have special guests with us, Zawanah, Arina and Sheha. All of them are final year sociology students. They are promoting Sociology and Anthropology Film Festivals as part of their coursework Popular Culture taught by Prof. Wan Zawawi. The theme was to empowering alternative imaginings, human values and agency.

They were asked why some people should take Sociology and Anthropology. Zawanah and Arina explained that sociology covers many fields including politics and economics. Most famous questions asked by people is that if they dont have a background in Sociology, can they take a degree in Sociology? Zaw claims that she was from science background. Although she struggled in the first year, but she managed to catch up the following years. Dj Jaz said that by taking Sociology and Anthropology it makes a person more analytical, sceptical and theoretical.

Another popular question often asked by people is that what are the differences between Sociology and Anthropology? The guests gave no clear answer for this, as Sheha explained that sociology and anthropology overlaps with each other.

Few comments from listeners over the topic:

" It has lots effects like violence, kids know how to use guns nowdays, people learn how to steal by just watching to the movie. They learn what was on the film by not knowing what is good and bad, i guese films have most impact in youth these days. Thats why parents have to play their role in looking out to they youngster and give motivation what best for them and not influence in films or movies characters" - Mashuara Ali

" Ia betul2 memberi kesan yg mendalam kpd masyarat kerana pada masa ini kanak2 pn tau akan apa meaning by sex, kanak2 tau membunuh ( berlaku di luar negeri ), mebuat perkara2 yang tak berfaedah seperti mencuri dan membuli , semuanya kerana teikut2 nya apa yang di tayangkan di film atau movie, cara membenterasnya ialah dgn mengadakan ceramah2 dan motivasi kpd masyarakat supaya menyedari akan keburukkan tentang film2 yang di tayangan, tidak semu lah film itu mengadungi bahaya tetapi mereka sering menerapkan tentang pakaian dan org selalu bilang belakon seperti benar dan ia akan menjadi benar di alam kenyataan" - Wink Waty

Final words from the guests is that they wanted you all to come and support them by attending the 1st UBD Film Festival of World Cinema.

Tonight "Wrap Up Show" with Deejay Ami is all about things that happen during this weekend. Let just start with giving highlights from the last UBD Open Day which was yesterday on the 18th February, 2012. UBDfm gave out free goodies to everyone who answered our questions. The goodies, courtesy of B.Mobile, which is an environmentally-friendly bag contain a notebook and a calendar. Lots of people flock to our booth just to win the free goodie bag.

UBD Open Day 2012

Also, some clubs like Performing Arts Club in collaboration with the Fonemik and Choir Club gave their performances outside the Chancellor Hall in which I had to add, amazing and very enticing. Afterwards, we have another performance by the Korean Culture Club which was held at the foyer. Their performance receive applause from the guests. Part of the reason PMUBD organise the UBD open day is also to promote clubs and Student Councils for current UBD students. Most of the clubs and student council still open for registration for new members.

Korean Culture Club

Good evening people! Dj Bex is on the air tonight giving you plentiful of upbeat tunes to your life. If you wish to request songs and dedication for tomorrow, just scroll down to find out on where to go, alright? :)

The second day of UBD Open Day 2012 has been really amazing! There were two awesome performances being done for today by the Nasyid Club and Fonemik Club. They were truly 'spectacular-istic'! Just so you know, UBDfm is having its quiz game during the day so do not miss this out if you wish to earn some beautiful goodies in courtesy from B-mobile. Also, good news to all of us that the PMUBD Cafe has revealed its secret attraction which is its own tasty lasagna and it tasted like O.M.G! There will be one day left to spare for the event so please do not let this chance pass by, bring your friends and families and get to know UBD :)

In addtition to that, we wish all of the members and committees of the UBD Open day 2012 to have a good rest tonight for tomorrow's final day occasion. This note is also goes to the lovely UBDfm crews, a big fat thank you to all of you for your hard work and to the rest of the people who have contributed so much to the success of the event. Therefore, do not get yourself overwork, alright? :)

Anyway guys, tonight's evening segment, entitled 'Success in life means money which means happiness' is brought to you with the notion of money-happy predicaments whereby the idea of happiness rises from money. There are so many arguments related to this content but despite of having different kinds of individualistic mind, money do possess an important role in our own life. However, to a certain extent, some people do really able to earn a successful life without money. For example, marriage wise, happiness is created.

One of the listeners, Angel Choo, stated that "i think the term 'success' varies with different people. most view success as earning big money. the more money you have, the more successful you are. i like how Bob Dylvan sees it, "A man is a success if he gets up in the morning and goes to bed at night and in between does what he wants to do."".

This is a true logical believes that one must be filled with true hard work and commitment to earn good money in order to reach the status of 'happiness'. It is either by possessing a high-paid career or being creative to your life. Moreover, things that you love to do or dreams to achieve could also bring your life to a different path of earning happiness. It is up to each one of us to feel what happiness is all about, so, throughout the day, we experience values and things we do not know about which can bring about happiness, only you can explain the way how happiness works for you. :)

In conclusion to the context of tonight's title, it is really a matter of how you view your life to carve that smile on your face. Success is just a middle part of your life, it is a matter of how you begin with it that makes your achievements to happiness be worthwhile.

There will be another segment tomorrow with a different one so get yourself to participate and get critical :) Brunei and beyond!

Some entertainment news for you guys! have you heard that Janet Jackson will be chosen as a judge for X-Factor? Also Nick Cannon has revealed his health problem of blood clots and heart trouble just because of excessive workout and overwork? Lastly, do you know that Reese Witherspoon wanting kate Middleton to call her because Kate is so cool? Well then direct yourself to E-Online news to know more, good night people! :)

Complimenting the modules available we have the Performance Arts Club, as mentioned, and the likes to give you proper training in the field of the acting, directing, producing, scriptwriting and basically back stage management.

In Jaz's opinion, he says that people usually wear what their peers likes them to wear and goes on to say it's like "coins with two sides" which basically advise us not to base decision or opinion on one persons account or reflection. We have to listen both decisions before making own decision.

Khalil also gave his opinions that what we wear depends on the context of the situation and some shirts defines who we are. For example, Khalil usually wear hoodies therefore that defines who he is and what he likes to wear. Furthermore, he then talks about malay traditional wear and say that whichever alterations they make to their shirt it's still consider as malay traditional shirt.

What we wear is not limited and there are a lot of styles to try!

Thoughts on recent news

2012-02-12T22:56:00.000+08:00

For tonight's session, Dj Wawa share recent news from local and international.

Following the death of Whitney Houston, Wawa expressed her professed love for the late singer. Like the rest of the world, she also shocked and deeply saddened by sudden death of the singer. Whitney, who famously having drug related problems, died today from drowning in the bathtub. Wawa, who had been a massive fan of Whitney, had also share her favourite song from the singer which is 'I have nothing'. In addition to that, she also advice everyone to stay away from drugs.

In another news, Wawa also congratulates Siti Nur Haliza, Malaysian singer, who had just launched SimplySiti at Paloma, the Mall this afternoon. Also, the score for the match between DPMM FC against the last season's S-League champion, Tampines Rivers, came to a draw in which both team scored two goals. Congratulations to DPMMFC for getting a point but as Wawa said, it's better to have a point, rather than nothing at all.

You can catch Dj Wawa on Monday, 20th February, 2012 for the Segment Love@Cinta.

Does Age Matters In Relationships?

2012-02-10T22:24:00.001+08:00

On our tonight's topic is about whether age matter in relationships? DJ Bex and DJ Qeels are to company you guys from 8-11pm.

Here are some perspective of the listeners from twitter:

-@Sylvan Cade- Age is just a number.. Nothing more nothing less. . Boys Girls still a human.. Fate decides it.. Just have faith.

-@Rina Habib- Age is just a number, it does/should not affect how we feel. The extremist however is a completely different story.

Some more on facebook:

-@'Hafiy Synyster- . Love is still love, theres no age restriction, people are the one who made rules stating that you can only be inlove when youre 18 cause by that age, people expect you to have full responsibility on ure life and on everything.

Life should be measured by the loved shared, memories made and the blessings given, rather than the time spent together :)

To the listeners out there, thank you for tuning with us all the way from the 8-11pm. You can catch DJ Bex again same time next week!

We heard you got your A Level and O Level results...

On behalf of UBDFM congratulations for those who scored well! It is time for you to narrow down your studies in preferred Universities and Form Sixth Centers.

No matter how long the journey will take you, just don't give up because you will never know what you are capable of! Again, have faith in yourself.

Highlights from Segment Love@Cinta:

Tonight’s segment explores the concept of ‘puppy love’ (Cinta Monyet) where Dj Wawa and Dj Iman asked the listeners to give their views on the topic.

Most of our responses on Facebook associate ‘Puppy Love’ with teenagers and infatuation. In other words, they believe that this kind of love does not really last long. Dj Wawa and Iman also further commented on the typical association of Puppy love and teenagers. The word ‘Puppy love’ is normally use as an expression or can be use as a form of sarcasm. It is also use to convey a not-everlasting love.

Throughout the segment as well, Dj Wawa and Dj Iman share some tips on having a much ever lasting love in which they share the tip to communicate with your partner. One of the tips shared by them is you had to compromise with your partner; agree on something both of you disagree; try to solve the problems together.

Here are our favourite Facebook comments for tonight’s topic:

Far Queen: Cinta yan buat bersemangat untuk ke sekolah.

Stefanie Veronica: Cinta monyet- Cinta yang menggembirakan dan menggilakan zaman sekolah

This is the highlight from tonight’s segment. Catch Dj Wawa again next week on Monday at 8pm till 11pm for the Love@Cinta Segment.

Only on UBDFM

Catching up with Aziz Harun on UBDFM!

2011-09-21T22:01:00.001+08:00

In his Baju Cara Melayu, Aziz Harun came to UBDFM with his brother, Rahim, for an interview with DJ Zharfan and DJ Zurin on the Versus Show last Friday 16th September 2011. Along with his brother, they played a couple of songs including his upcoming single. Pre-interview and on-air he is actually shy and timid around us. He was nervous for it was the first time he had an interview. (But I also think it is the age gap. Haha). But then he showed his other side when he plays the guitar and fooled around the camera a bit. He turns out to be playful!

I first discovered Aziz Harun when RanoAdidas.com introduced him with his original track "Battle That We Never Won" with his brother Rahim years back. Truth to be told, I was mind blown knowing that he wrote a piece when he was just 11 years old!

Oh such shame for a 22 year old. I have never accomplished anything at such young age...Oh well, carry on!

PROFILE

Full name: Abdul Aziz Harun
Age: 12 yrs old coming 13 this December.
School: JIS, Year 8
Family: He has 6 siblings (4 sisters and 1 brother). He is the youngest.
Record Label: Projectunes Record (Signed in 2010)
Current single: Peace and Harmony
Ambition: A lawyer

Most of you now may have discovered him through Youtube, local radio stations, local TV and even competitions. Under the account of Jambul212, Aziz started off through Youtube where he uploaded a lot of cover tracks in English and Malay as well as his original singles. His first video was Bellaluna by Jason Mraz in 2008.

He sometimes feature his family in his covers which includes his sister, Tharwana; his brother, Rahim; and cousins and other artists who are equally brilliant in singing. His latest cover song features his sister Tharwana Harun – Suasana Hari Raya in Youtube.

Aziz started to sing when he was just 2 years old of which he also gained interest in playing guitar. Officially he learned the instrument when he was 6 years old. His family is a huge inspiration where his father and siblings love to sing and karaoke during their free time. Thus In fact his eldest sister, Shazwana, was in Bintang Kecil years ago. Following his sister's footsteps, he also joined Bintang Kecil and won himself an award in 2009. And because of his amazing talent, he was sent to Kuching and Singapore for competitions. He then won another award for Best Performance in Kuching.

To him, singing is just a hobby but deep inside he would like to go international one day. UBDFM and your fans have your full support Aziz! We wish you all the best of luck :)

Unfortunately Aziz had to bid UBDFM farewell by 11pm. To our surprise he 'salam' the big sisters and brothers of UBDFM. Bless him for being talented and respectful! +1!

We will upload his videos from UBDFM studio soon. So watch this space!

Tuesday, September 20, 2011
UNIVERSITI Brunei Darussalam (UBD) and TelBru yesterday signed a Memorandum of Understanding to improve the broadcast of UBD FM over the Internet at The Core in UBD.

UBD Vice Chancellor Dato Paduka Dr Hj Zulkarnain Hj Hanafi and TelBruActing Chief Executive Officer Hj Umar Ali Hj Abdullah signed the agreement before Assistant Vice Chancellor (Corporate and Administration) of UBD Hjh Anis Faudzulani Hj Dzulkiflee and General Manager of TelBru Media and Communications Mohd Reeda Hj Malik.

"One of the projects we have identified is to do with UBD FM...to provide them a streaming server locally in Brunei to allow them to stream their broadcast much more faster and clearer," Mohd Reeda said in an interview with The Brunei Times.

However, he said UBD FM will not be doing radio broadcast due to limitations of ICT at the moment.

"So what we can do is basically to increase the bandwidth at which they are streaming so they get higher quality and people can listen to them on their mobile phones. But as far as FM radio broadcast, I think that will probably be some time before we can do that," he said, adding that UBD FM will be a "full-blown" station, but broadcasting over the Internet.

He added that UBD FM will be broadcast over a higher bandwidth "probably in the next month or so".

Hjh Anis Faudzulani said during the interview that the project will take UBD FM a step towards becoming an independent and more popular radio station.

"We would like them to become independent, still under UBD...with the advice and guidance from UBDand TelBru," she added.

Both Mohd Reeda and Hjh Anis Faudzulani said that an internship programme with TelBru , which will be open for students starting in January next year, will follow after the UBD FM.

Hjh Anis Faudzulani hopes that the MoU would provide a platform for both organisations to explore ways to promote educational and academic exchange through student internships, study opportunities in the forms of seminars, workshops and conferences.

On the side of TelBru, Mohd Reeda said that the MoU provides a "two-fold" advantage of exposing the telecommunication corporation to their future customers as well as future employees.

"For TelBru, we realise these students will graduate and they will get jobs, so they will be our future customers and we are trying to get their mind share while they are still in university and get them to see the branding is there," he said. "The other thing of course is talent spotting as well, so they could be our future employees as well."

He is hopeful that the MoU and internship programme would open the doors for opportunities for students to consider a career in the private sector.

They added that the MoU sought to achieve common objectives in line with the national vision ofWawasan Brunei 2035 to create a knowledge society.

"We are talking about the younger generation is operating within this whole memorandum understanding. That's the main goal...that we are producing the right kind of youth, holistic in the sense of academics," said Hjh Anis Faudzulani.

Mohd Reeda added that the MoU sought to ensure that the students will gain knowledge and experience to be "business-savvy" and "entrepreneurial".

"The university is expecting these people to become independent, in order to do that they need to be able to sustain some sort of revenue and in order to do that they need to be able to do business," he said.

UBDFM is a great platform for learners who plan to venture into national radio broadcast. Albeit the lack of facilities and equipment UBDFM is able to reach the public through the internet of which has higher (online) media consumers. Despite being a learning ground UBDFM is still capable to catch up the likes of other local broadcasters and giving its listeners the best quality given.

Nevertheless UBDFM also provides opportunity for its DJs and crew to develop skills in fields of leadership, communication, management and marketing. Hence equipping its members with abilities which can be put to use for their future employment.

We Gave Back to Save Lives.

2011-07-19T18:48:00.006+08:00

As you all know Projek Brunei and UBDFM have collaborated to run the Give Back project in order to save lives of those in need. It is a cause that gather caring individuals by giving back to the society with blood donation.

The blood drive charity project was successfully held at the Core Residential College UBD on Tuesday, 19^th July, 2011 around 9am until 11am. 20 people 'Gave Back' to the society by donating their blood which was conducted by the Blood Bank staff, RIPAS Hospital.

The project leaders who were running behind the scene, Delwin (@Bruneitweet) from Projek Brunei with DJ Ami from UBDFM, also donated their blood in this event. Other notable donaters also came from our refreshment sponsors, Pondok Sari Wangi (@pondoksariwangi) and Mr. Baker Bakeshop (@Mrbakerbakeshop).

However despite the positive outcome, unfortunately some were unable to donate to medical reasons. Nevertheless we are grateful to receive such support from the society. We are looking forward for your continuous support in the near future.

ProjekBrunei and UBDFM: Blood Drive Charity

2011-07-11T22:50:00.004+08:00

Be a heart and donate your blood to save other people's lives who are in need. Give Back to those in the Meet Up for a Cause: Save Lives project.

UBDFM Behind the Scenes - Photoshoot

2011-07-11T21:27:00.002+08:00

Here are the some shots taken behind the scenes of our UBDFM photoshoot at Q-lap taken by Hanisham. Make-up credits also goes to Hafizah and Khalil. The final result of our DJ and Crew photos will be officially premiered in our new website! So watch this space for further notice.

We are now at The Core!

2011-07-06T12:06:00.002+08:00

As you all know, UBD FM is moving to the new studio at The Core since Monday night. Subsequently we have to go off air from 7pm last Monday until now. For the past few weeks we approached different companies to renovate the rooms and now it's furnished with modern furniture, carpet and blinds. Although most of our equipment are already set up we have yet to wait for the network to be installed before we resume on air.

Comparing to our previous venue, we have a smaller office functioning also as the lounge but a bigger studio. This will be efficient to hold talk shows, interviews and whatnot as people are able to move around freely. The studio will also be the best place to take pictures because of the themed walls. We have a stretched wall of glass so that outsiders can see how the DJs work their magic. However we have to hold the show until we can officially go on air. As of now the room is covered with blinders. With that, we are sorry that we can't provide pictures of the current studio and office. But perhaps we can let you visualize this; black, purple, silver, gray, comfy, cozy, romantic, modern and COLD! Yes, it's freezing cold in here! We have huge air-conditioners both in the small office and big studio. Albeit the temperature we are beyond happy to be settling down at our new home. We really can't wait to share this to the public because the place is fab!

So for now bear with us as this is also a good opportunity for us to organize and do maintenance in our system. Thus you can get a better experience listening to UBD FM.

On another note, there's a new convenience store called The Fresh Barn just next to the food court at The Core. It's about time we have one! It's quite convenient for students living at the residential college and hostels as they supply cooking oil, packets of french fries, sausages, canned food, toiletries, biscuits, ice creams and many more! Nevertheless it's open to public too. The store is open from am until 10pm.

Till then, watch this space and ciao!

Prizes to be given away!

Guess what? There are "REAL DEAL" PACKs to be given away by UBDFM on Friday and Saturday! (around 2pm - 10pm)

Tune in for updates...

UBD FM is migrating soon!

2011-06-11T19:36:00.003+08:00

I believe that our awesome DJs have been informing the good news to our listeners lately.
We're moving to a new home!

Our studio will be located at The Core where the New Residential College resides. This place is strategic to both counterparts; UBD FM and visitors (it has better parking spaces and easier for you to find the studio for future events. Like meeting your favourite DJs, celebrities or public figures. Who knows? :D)

Credit goes to Belle, Khalz and Kye

It's also a great place to chill since we are located next to the food court. You can enjoy your food while listening to UBD FM which is right next door! If you're lucky you can catch a glimpse of us working our magic too ;)

Talking about the food court, be noted fellow UBDians! There will be a "New-Hot-Cafe-Which-Must-Not-Be-Named-Yet" opening at the Core soon. Curious yet? Us too! Most of us are aware that UBD has been making its face lift since the end of last semester. It seems that UBD has more surprises waiting for us in August. We all can't wait!
