In his brief remarks, Nanta thanked SRB for selecting Kapit as one of the venues for the celebration.
He also lauded the overwhelming response as the organiser had only targeted 250 participants for the event.
Among those present were SRB controller Richard Tajan and deputy controller Abang Mohammad Abang Naili.
