Win B$500

Do you want to win B$500.00 (Brunei Dollar Five Hundreds Only)? Have you ever hear about THE GREATEST RACE ON EARTH? Read on...

The Greatest Race on Earth (GROE) is open to any team of four runners. Each person runs one of the four marathons in Nairobi, Singapore, Mumbai and Hong Kong. The teams with the fastest aggregate time get a chance to share a prize pool of just over US$1 million. Brunei was represented by Roslani Awang Hidop (Nairobi - 31st out of 36), Zulkifle Liman (Singapore - 26th out of 33), Sefli Anak Ahar (Mumbai - 25th out of 35) and Md Rudiin Takong (Hong Kong - 30th out of 35). Overall, Brunei is on the 31st position of GROE.

The other exciting part of GROE is the Race for A Living Planet. This is an environmental challenge where Standard Chartered has partnered up with the World Wildlife Fund for Nature (WWF) to provide US$1 million to the top three countries who acquire the most environmental pledges per capita. The funding will go towards the winning country's environmental conservation projects and is part of Standard Chartered Bank's global commitment to the environment in the Race for A Living Planet, which is linked to the GROE marathon series, a press release from Standard Chartered Bank stated.

And, guess what? As of today, Brunei is still the leader of the Race for A Living Planet, followed by Thailand, Taiwan, Hong Kong and the rest.

On 25th February, Standard Chartered Bank Brunei launched a contest open to all members of the public in BRUNEI to encourage all individuals above the age of 18 to pledge for their country and raise the awareness on environmental concerns. The first individual who submitted 500 pledges would be awarded a B$500 My Dream Savings Account. The second and third individual who submitted 500 pledges would be awarded B$100 each and the first 10 individuals who submitted 50 pledges would receive B$50 each.
