BAA

Brunei has recently introduced new vehicle registrations with three initial letters, rather than the two that were previously used. So lots of people are proudly driving around in their brand new cars with the 'BAA' registration.

In Singapore, when registrations with the letters 'SEA', 'SEB', 'SEC', etc were being used, they had to skip 'X' for obvious reasons. And it is fun to speculate which ones Brunei will decide to skip.

I imagine 'BAB' and 'BAC' will not be a problem. But 'BAD'? Will that one be used? And what about 'BAE' which sounds uncomfortably close to the Brunei Malay word for 'pig' ― will they decide to skip that? I predict that 'BAI' may be skipped for the same reason.

I imagine that the one all Bruneians will love best will be 'BAH'!
