(Bandar Seri Begawan, 28th) Bank Islam Brunei Darussalam (BIBD) recently held a recognition and commendation ceremony to honor its sports delegation participating in the 2025 Interbank Sports Championship. The event will take place from 19 to 20 June 2025 in Jakarta, Indonesia.
This championship gathers professionals from leading regional financial institutions, including Bank Syariah Indonesia, CIMB Niaga Indonesia, Maybank, and BIBD. The organizers aim to strengthen ties, promote cooperation, and encourage employees’ physical and mental well-being through a series of sporting competitions and exchange activities.
The tournament features badminton, golf, football, bowling, and pickleball, among others. Beyond competition, it offers an important exchange platform for participants to build connections with industry peers, exchange insights, and develop long-term cooperative relationships that extend beyond the field.
BIBD Acting Managing Director and CEO Mohd Yusri Hj Wahsalfelah, in his speech at the recognition ceremony, pointed out that joining the sports club means far more than participating in matches and championships.
He said it also provides employees with opportunities to contribute to and support the bank in a meaningful way while reflecting the institution’s core values and corporate culture.
Sports activities continue to be an effective platform for building relationships, expanding professional networks, learning from industry peers, and discovering cooperative opportunities. Through friendly competition and meaningful interaction, this tournament further highlights the importance of forging strong connections within the regional banking community.
The interactions and relationships fostered during the championship also open potential collaboration opportunities for all participating institutions, demonstrating how sports can promote communication and create broader value outside traditional business environments.
BIBD also recognizes the evolving role of its athletes. As athletes increasingly become brand ambassadors for the bank, they help enhance BIBD’s influence in the regional banking community through their professionalism, sportsmanship, and positive image, while promoting the bank’s valued principles of cooperation, excellence, and integrity.
The recognition ceremony also commended the BIBD delegation for their dedication, commitment, and achievements. The delegation’s participation reflects the bank’s emphasis on employee engagement, personal development, and relationship building within the financial services sector.
More importantly, the event underscores that the value of sports goes far beyond competition itself. Through shared experiences, sports unite people, help build trust, strengthen partnerships, and pave the way for future cooperation and business opportunities.
As BIBD continues to invest in programs that foster meaningful interactions, the Interbank Sports Championship fully reflects the bank’s belief that strong relationships are not only built in the workplace, but can also be reinforced through teamwork, industry camaraderie, and bonds forged from shared experiences.
