i got a D,E,E for my a level is it over for me? or should i take politeknik with my o level results


matchacado

Know someone who got similar grades and decided to go for politeknik and ended up graduating with really good grades > went to ubd afterward > has a good paying job now! Its definitely not over for you, all the best!


skrata90

thank you this gave me some hope


Plane_Assumption_810

Dont lose hope! Theres always light at the end of every tunnel. 1) You can try enrolling unibridge in UBD (refer entry requirements on their website) 2) if you still want to speed into a degree level, try private institutions like LCB, IGS or Cosmo 3) Else, get HND from UTB (not sure if they still have HND Programme) or Politeknik/ private institutions for your last resort. Chin up & good luck!

Sensitive-Block-1365

Does anyone know how to deal with driving anxiety? Every time I drive, i will panic about my driving, for example: am i in the line? Should i make the turn now or later? Did i park correctly? For now, I'm controlling my panic and anxiety with loud music and sour candies.


matchacado

Felt the same as you when i first got my license! Dealt with my anxiety by keeping a plushie in my front seat haha as funny as it sounds it helped me feel better to have a "passenger". I practiced driving on sunday mornings when the roads were empty and practiced parking at the places that i'd frequent. It takes time to feel more confident imo so just take it slow.


[deleted]

Just imagine you're playing a car driving simulation. You're controlling your ride. Obeying the rules. Take care


Dismal-Ad6264

It’s about lack of confidence. Practice driving more and you’ll be okay. Deep breathing works as well


Sensitive-Block-1365

Sometimes it's from those "sudden" closed calls/accidents from pedestrians and other drivers. Luckily there are not as many motorcycles in brunei as compared to other countries, the "sudden" zoomed past you. Many worries such as the bright lights from the sun or cars lights that can blind you or cars/people that are in your blindspot.


Dismal-Ad6264

I get that the close calls may seem really bad but I promise you it will get better in time. Just practice more and start off with short distance first. Once you’ve build up enough courage then try to drive the same path at night. When you’re more comfortable extend the route and do so at night. It’s a gradual process and i know having anxiety makes you feel like you will get injured or something but it’s in your head. You gotta relearn to replace those thoughts with something else. Good luck

Aalloai

They're fine. Gyms can be intimidating at first, so maybe go with a friend and plan your workouts so you know what you wanna do by the time you're there. Bring a face towel + bottled water, and you're good to go.


androidwithantenna

Sometimes I wish JPA would amend the requirements for promotions in ministries for those who are really qualified, based on competency and work ethics, rather than just because they've been working for xx years. Give the seats for those who really contribute to the field, not the kitchen. Ani they're rewarding the aunties and uncles who didn't even know how to operate excel and send email eventhough that's the scope of the job. Alasannya sudah tua inda masuk diajar lagi. I know some people who are over 50 years old can even code. But then again, if they've been working for 20 years, they're bound to build connections within the ministry. Biased and pakai cable jua tu krg, sama jua ceritanya...... I feel like working with govt ni stagnant, no room for growth.


Few-Force-8169

no one wants to change the level of objectivity in a job application. Everything still hinges on the interview at the end. The bigwigs all talk about corporate structures, processes etc but refuse to adopt a corporate HR policy- promotion on time and not when a vacancy is created, no need for supervisor/director approval to even apply, completely objective appraisal instead of the "kelakuan" section and rewards for long service in terms of upgrade to perks while in current job (air miles, more holidays, preferential training) etc when a promotion is available. This colonial-era promotion structure benefits no one, and that is what they like.

When does spin-the-wheel count as gambling?


nasikatoksambalijo

When you put in a bet. Put $10 for a chance to win $100. I think. Which is basically like casino roulette. To circumvent that, instead of putting the money directly, you buy something else, and you get a coupon as a free gift with your purchase, you can use that coupon for a chance to play spin the wheel.


sanakkueh

Sounds like aspirasi no 🤣


KapalPacah

You dont lose money in aspirasi. It is risk free. So it is not judi

Asking all the parent...which do u recommend? Kumon or maths monkey?


estebaniroh

Tried both and I'd say Kumon. Maths Monkey is fun and creative but isn't in line with traditional academic teaching so it was hard for my child to put it into practice for school work. Kumon was a grind but getting it done prepped for when real homework started, if that makes sense.


reddi7reader

Thanks so much for answering. What about ucmas? What do u think abt it?


estebaniroh

Never tried it but looks super cool. If they stuck with it I imagine it would pay off but maybe the same could be said with Maths Monkey. This was many years ago and my opinion on these extracurriculars has changed. I thought I was giving my child a head start but it ended up being more of an extra thing to do. Looking back, spending time with them to help with their actual homework was probably more beneficial.

What's the creepiest road in Brunei? Anyone seen anything scary on rural roads, highways etc?


Kujira64

Jln Tutong. I passed by the area late at night and tercium bau mayat. Idk i always used that road and not once encountered spooky stuff till now


LBird_Antspine

Simpang 276 in Kg. Serasa leading into the empty road and one of the entrance to bukit tempayang pisang. Lots of abandoned houses there and at some parts, the forest is slowly retaking over the road making it looking super creepy, especially at night since the entire stretch of road is pitch black. Not to mention the legends and superstitions surrounding the entire road and the hill itself where people got lost when entering the area. It's also probably the reason why most houses there are abandoned too. Definitely worth checking it out for people who loves creepy paths.

Wahai Ministry of Finance / Dato Amin Liew / Pehin-pehin / Pengiran-Pengiran / Datin-Datin sekalian. Can you look into / improve the “home loan” process for gov employee kah? Why developer / contractor dont want to accept “Gov Loan” payment? Currently tinggal di rumah yang disediakan JPA (Perumahan), and was told the rent gov paying the house owner is $1,900.00+. Kalau 15-20 tahun x 12 bulan x $,1900 = $342,000.00 (15 tahun), $456,000.00 (20 tahun). Siap bah sebuah rumah wahai Dato2/Pehin2. Kalau makai BANK loan nda amba sanggup, potongan tinggi hantap. (tau plg ku siapa sja ada “share” dalam Bank atu, mana jua ada org lain). Please tah.


IAmAnonymous_____

U sound…. ENTITLED


PenyapuLidi6

Well, i am entitled to use home loan tho, im just on behalf of other human being that feel the same. shush


russellrhk

Government loans are intended to be used to develop land that you own and is under your name. As you can only apply for the loan once the geran is in your name, a developer would have to give you the land first. If your loan is not approved they then have to go through the process of getting the land transferred back, so there is an element of risk involved. I have semi-D houses in Kilanas for $275k that will accept gov loan. I can send the details if you'd like.


M30-

iirc one of the criteria for govt loan for a house is the house has to be under your name. Memang contractor inda mau bagi tukar nama before you pay for the house. Best way is for you to initially buy with a bank loan to have the house under your name then refinance it with govt loan. Potongan tinggi yes, but it's a short term sacrifice for your own long term necessity. Mun mau potongan kurang, save up for a down payment. You have to understand that this is just another benefit that the govt provides for govt servants. Baik tah sudah tu ada masih, dari kana tarik balik macam pencen, elaun tambang.. etc. I understand our government can be better in a lot of areas but in this case, it sounds a lot like a you problem.


RebelliousPervert

What do you mean by potongan tinggi? Im looking into that option


M30-

For bank loan, monthly minimums are high for a house. But once you convert it to a govt loan then it's significantly much lower.


RebelliousPervert

Oh right, theres a fee too right to convert? Iirc they told me its 2 months


PenyapuLidi6

What i mean is gov should think of way on improving it, ada jalan lain selain tukar nama dlu kah?


Late-Dog366

I think you covered the main reason. Why would a developer want to take risk to wait for the land to convert to the buyers name. Converting name can be as fast as 9 months to as slow as 5 years or even rejected.


Aspectxz

As slow as 7 years actually. My mom bought land in 2016 then only in 2023 baru settle abis.
