PM Modi participated in the inauguration of the new Chancery of the Indian High Commission in Brunei and was warmly welcomed by the local Indian community. The new structure is situated beside the US Embassy premises at Jalan Duta Diplomatic Enclave in Bandar Seri Begawan.
The PM lit a lamp and unveiled a plate at the event in the presence of National Security Adviser Ajit Doval and External Affairs Minister S Jaishankar.
As per the statement issued after the launch, “the chancery complex projects strongly anchored Indianness beautifully blending with historical elements as well as abundant tree planting”. While its design retains its attractiveness, it is complemented even more by the clever use of claddings and strong Kota stones that blend the traditional and the contemporary designs harmoniously. Apart from paying tribute to the great history of the Nation’s heritage, the design also uses an airy friendly approach.”
