PM in Brunei: Narendra Modi inaugurates new Chancery premises of India High Commission
Narendra Modi inaugurated the new Chancery premises of the High Commission of India in Brunei today. On the occasion, he lit a lamp and unveiled a plaque.
Prime Minister Modi also interacted with the Indian community members who were present at the inauguration.
He appreciated their contribution as a living bridge between the two countries and strengthening bilateral ties.
The first phase of Indians arriving in Brunei started with the discovery of oil in the 1920s.
Currently, approximately 14,000 Indians are residing in Brunei. The contribution of Indian doctors and teachers to the growth and development of Brunei’s health care and education sectors has been well acknowledged.
The chancery complex embodies a profound sense of Indianness, masterfully integrating traditional motifs and lush tree plantations.
The use of elegant claddings and durable Kota stones further enhances its aesthetic appeal, harmoniously blending classic and contemporary elements. The design not only pays homage to India’s rich cultural heritage but also creates a tranquil and inviting atmosphere.
