Recently four students from Pusat Tingkatan Enam Katok (PTEK) took part in the ISB Borneo Global Issues Conference which was held at ISB (International School Brunei) and also ICC (International Convention Centre). It is an honour for PTEK to have these four students due to its prestigious events as one of the school representatives get to meet HRH Pengiran Anak Sarah binti Pg Haji Ab-Rahaman.

Basically BGIC is a very fun and exciting experience since it started last Friday and just ended on Monday Night. The students get to meet with other students who came from different schools in Brunei and also, from Thailand, Malaysia and Indonesia. All of the delegates took the opportunity of meeting Nathan Chasing Horse, who is a native American/celebrity/activist of defending the culture and customs of the Native Americans and also Adrian Lasimbang, who is also an activist for the Malaysian Native people and the president of JOAS (Jaringan Orang Asal SeMalaysia).

Overall, the students had a great experience upon joining and would really encourage the juniors to join BGIC as it has many advantages such as improving skills in public speaking and also a great way to socialize with other students and could make many international and national friends.
