Coinciding with the 27th of the auspicious month of Ramadhan, Ayyub received his award along with 4 other recipients. Out of this total of 5 Scholars, 4 of them including Ayyub will continue their studies at Imperial College London while the 5th recipient will go to Al-Azhar in Egypt.

Escargo Familia takes this opportunity to congratulate the Sultan's Scholars of 2009, especially its President Ayyub, wishing them all good health and excellent grades, and hoping for them to return to our beloved Brunei to serve this country and its people in the future :)
