AUSTRALIA, 11 December 2022 – A total of 06 officers from the Royal Brunei Armed Forces (RBAF) and Ministry of Defence attended the OBOE Endeavour Academic Excellence program from 05 to 11 December 2022 in Australia.
The program includes engagement with the Australian Senior Leadership, participation in roundtable discussions with mid-level tri-service officers, Joint Ops Command, Australian Defence Policy and the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade. The participants also had the opportunity to make educational and cultural tour such as visit to the Australian Parliament House, Victoria Barracks, HMAS Waterhen, and the Australian War Memorial where they observed and participated in wreath laying during the Last Post Ceremony.
The program was highly beneficial as it offered all officers the opportunity and rewarding experience to observe closely the Australian Defence organisation, and provided comprehensive understanding and knowledge to strategic thinking on various issues related to regional security and stability. These rich information has certainly equipped them with valuable inputs and critical perspectives.
The OBOE Endeavour Academic Excellence is an annual program awarded to the RBAF Command and Staff participants who have achieved outstanding results during the course.
