OK.

I'm updating again and your reaction might be:

  1. 'Yay! She updates!' or
  2. 'OK, what's with that weird title?' or
  3. WTH Why does she put her sources first?!


For the second reaction, that's because I'm blogging about Earth Hour 2010 in BRUNEI! Exciting, isn't it, Brunei is finally officially take part in Earth Hour!

For those who had no idea what I am babbling about check out this post and this post.

I, of course will be taking part in this humble activity! And I flame the person that wrote this post, because clearly a small thing can make a difference!

Anyway. Back to the topic. For those with the third reaction, I just felt like citing my sources first. Why? Because this time my sources are from Bruneian blogs! Great stuff! I have no doubt DENcorp will write something on this topic soon.

BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN

THE Earth Hour Global representatives in Brunei will be inviting the private sector, associations, individuals and other agencies in Brunei to take part in conserving the power consumption by switching off the unessential lights and other electrical appliances for only one hour.

The volunteer blackout will commence from 8.30pm till 9.30pm on March 27. Some Brunei households and companies such as The Empire Hotel & Country Club and the Sheraton Hotel participated in this initiative last year.

Earth Hour Global is committed to having Brunei Darussalam as an official participant of Earth Hour Campaign in 2010, and place Brunei in the Earth Hour International Map.

Statistics from the Electrical Services Department show that the Ministry of Education’s average usage of electricity is 6,581,472 KWh a month, which costs $658,147.23.


I'm plain bad at convincing people so I'll shut my trap now. All the more reasons to check out the hundred of links in this post!
