Royal Brunei Q400's?

I saw an ad today and Royal Brunei is looking for type rated Q400 pilots. I could not find any information on how many or when they are coming. Does anyone know about this job and things in general at Royal Brunei these days? Thanks.

The posting is suspicious on several levels.

One, there is no evidence that Royal Brunei has or will acquire any Q400s, although I have no direct knowledge of that;

Two, the posting was put on Climbto350.com on Saturday, March 14th but had disappeared by the morning of March 15th;

Three, parts of the ad employed specific wording that was identical to a posting on March 13th by "Protec Technical" seeking Q400 pilots for Africa.

The problem with this posting is that it was deliberately misleading--explicitly stating that the poster was Royal Brunei; the website listed thereon was the main website of Royal Brunei, and there was no mention of the recruitment agency name at all.

Then the posting vanished--possibly due to Climbto350.com realizing that the ad was misleading, erroneous or both.
