Public Outreach
In collaboration with the E-Government National

Tular Di Media Sosial” in July 2018 to raise public
awareness on safety measures and ethical use of
social media in a more prudent and responsible way.
Additionally, in AITI’s effort to continuously educate
the public to promote a safe, secure and trusted ICT
environment, audio awareness on fake news was
broadcast on all Radio Television Brunei (RTB) radio
channels and Kristal FM from November 2018 until
March 2019.
An awareness activity has also been carried out
with the aim of enhancing knowledge on AITI’s type
approval and enforcement process with the Royal
Customs and Excise Department (RCED), starting
with an introductory presentation to RCED’s officers
in July 2018 at their headquarters and followed with
hands-on briefings at selected RCED premises from
October to November 2018. In January 2019, RCED
celebrated the International Customs Day and AITI
participated as one of the enforcement agencies.
