On 26 November 2025, High Commissioner of Malaysia HE Datuk Mohd Aini Atan attended the Closing Ceremony of the 15th Royal Brunei Armed Forces (RBAF) Command and Staff Course (CSC), held at the Defence Academy of RBAF. The Guest of Honour for the event was YB Pehin Datu Lailaraja Major General (Rtd) Dato Paduka Seri Awang Haji Halbi bin Haji Mohd Yussof, Minister at the Prime Minister’s Office and Minister of Defence II.
A total of 37 officers received the completion of course certificate during the ceremony, including two officers from Malaysia, namely Mejar Mohd Farid bin Shaaron and Mejar Nadhirah binti Mohd Nur. Since 2010, the Malaysian Armed Forces (MAF) has consistently dispatched two of its officers each year to attend this prestigious course as part of its efforts to strengthen defence cooperation with regional countries, including Brunei Darussalam.
HE Datuk Mohd Aini expressed hope that the continued participation from Malaysia in the CSC will further enhance the military professionalism of MAF officers in facing the increasingly complex security environment, while underscoring Malaysia’s commitment to strengthen defence diplomacy for regional peace, prosperity and stability.
