Safely arrived at Changi Airport after a very bumpy ride throughout the journey. Flew with SilkAir, operating on behalf of Singapore Airlines. Singapore Airlines (Boeing 777) currently only operate flights to and from Brunei on Wednesday and Friday, whereas SilkAir operates flights on Saturday to Monday. All other flights and timings are operated by Royal Brunei Airlines.
The plane was quite full, probably many students are returning to Singapore to resume studies or many other travellers are transiting Singapore to fly to Canada, United States, New Zealand etc - popular destinations for many local people from Brunei.
Departure from Brunei Airport was slightly delayed. After all passengers boarded the aircraft, it taxi-ed to a spot where I saw cars pulled up beside the aircraft, followed by presence of local policemen. Guess that some one with "pangkat", or high titles/ranks is also boarding the plane.
Interestingly, the plane is an Airbus A340, with single aisle along the center of the aircraft's body, restricting movement especially when meal is served. Moreover, there aren't any other sorts of in-flight entertainment like the Boeing 777 plane. I entertained myself by taking some photos after my meal.

Time to go do some revision now.... Been slacking and busy playing and visiting for the past 1 week or so, hardly touch my notes at all... Will upload some pictures from Brunei some other time...
