BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN - PRESIDENT of Brunei Darussalam Red Crescent Society (BDRC) Hj Julaini Hj Latif (pictured), encouraged more youth in the Sultanate to participate in their movement as volunteers.
Hj Julaini underscored the importance of joining the Society’s activities as one of the ways to develop an individual’s character and potential as a future leader.
“When we become volunteers with the Brunei Darussalam Red Crescent Society, it is not merely about providing first aid,” he said. He explained that volunteers can contribute in various areas of the activities implemented by the Society.
The activities organised by the Society will build the positive characters of the volunteers.
“As a volunteer, one can be an engineer, doctor, accountant or clerk in our movement,” he said.
Providing first aid is only a part of the Society’s movement.
“It is more about serving the community in all aspects based on the needs of a particular society.”
BDRC is also on the lookout for any international activities held by the International Red Cross Red Crescent relating to health and safety, relief and support activities for vulnerable groups.
BDRC is a member of the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies and the International Red Cross and Red Crescent movement.
There are about 1,800 members of the BDRC, dominated by students from various schools, colleges and higher educational institutions.
