The inhabitants of those two towns were most hospitable and friendly, despite the reason we were there. Lots of trips to the interior to meet the indigenous people. Also was in Miri, Sarawak. There were no strict restrictions back then.

To be honest, as a Muslim myself, I was a little bit nervous too. Luckily everything went well with your trip this time around. Anyway, the writing system which you have mistakenly thought as "Arabic", is actually "Jawi" writing system. It is derived from Arabic but written down in local (Bahasa Melayu) language. Malaysia also has this writing system and was widely spread before independence, but we have changed it to "Roman" alphabet so that our non-Malays citizen can adapt Bahasa Melayu much easier. I'm from Malaysia by the way. Thanks Drew for sharing your experience with us.

To those travelling to Brunei, you are most welcome. I remember bringing some tourists (pre covid) and I brought them to visit families and friends during EID while wearing brunei's national costume (i have plenty to lend). The treatment they received were quantum leaps better. 😊 Some other tips: 1. Wear modestly. Long pants/long jeans for men are encouraged. 2. Interact politely yet conservatively because most bruneians are shy but very hospitable, especially to foreigners. 3. Having a local friend & guide will be EXTREMELY useful. 4. Public transport is not that dependable as most of us own cars or two. See no 3 5. Always ask what are the do's and don'ts when visiting any place or someone's home. 6. Tipping is not mandatory but most welcomed, especially in restaurants. 7. Best season to visit: 23/2, July, Ramadhan month, Eid.

It’s like you’re coming back to meet your new self ✊❤️

I have worked with many Bruneians who are smart, well educated and again - lovely. I do really like this place and you feel extremely safe, without all drunk idiots every Friday and Saturday.

I lived there for two years. One of the friendliest places to live. Great people, good food and wonderful things to see.

I only like to travel to a country where I know someone there. There’s a huge difference from going to the “sites” and living life like a local. I enjoy learning the culture of where I go and spending time like I would as an average person.

I'm from NZ but lived in Brunei for about 5 years growing up. Brunei has its special moments, they just opened the eco-park by the Grand Mosque, Temburong is a beautiful national park, and the night markets are one of the best things about Brunei. They don't need fancy malls or shopping attractions they have everything in their nature. Not to mention the locals are incredibly loving and kind. I learnt so much from that place and I miss the wildlife and beaches (you will never find locals swimming at the beach because of crocodiles but the beaches are usually safe ) damn i think i wanna go back

I partially grew up here as an expat attending international school. I think this video pretty accurately sums up the 'vibe' of Brunei and how people view it. The country itself is just like mega chill. People are shy, usually keep to themselves but once you get to learn them and they open up to you they're some of the coolest, most interesting, and friendliest people I know. And yes for anyone watching, if you want more action people do go to Malaysia across the border to party, drink and generally get their fix of 'action' because there really isn't anything like that in Brunei. Ultimately the country is largely very safe, laid back and chill. Warm tropical climate, tons of rainforest further south from the capital (also interesting to check out if you ever come back to Borneo). It does have its flaws though. Personally I'm not Muslim and having spent the other half of my life in a very secular and free country it was quite jarring to live in Brunei. Like yeah, you never really feel the need to complain but not being able to trust the news (as its not free) or being able to speak your mind about more sensitive topics like politics, religion and sexuality is a bit off to me. Even then I'd say its still multiple factors better than somewhere like the UAE just because of how chill it is. Anyways I'll stop yapping about my experiences. I hope I can visit the country again some day and see what's changed. And visit my old school :)

Brunei will always welcome you back with many friendly locals everywhere treating you nicely just as long as you are with a local guide while in the country.

I lived in Brunei for about 3 years due to my job and left around 2019 as I got moved to another country by my company. In my experience, it is one of the most peaceful countries I've ever been at in my entire life. The crime rate is very low and you'll rarely hear any awful crimes in the country although they hide some to prevent mass panics. You can walk the streets in the middle of the night without some hillbilly pointing a gun or a knife at you and most of the drivers there has there sense compared to drivers in other countries. During Hari Raya we were also able to get in the King's palace to eat delicious meals for free and they give you a yellow box containing food along with a picture of the Sultan. There is no tax there, the electricity bill is cheap and water bill doesn't exist for residential areas. Almost everyone I knew there has a car and the only people I see that use public transportation (bus) are mainly foreign workers such as Indonesians, Filipinos, Bangladesh, etc though I barely rode the bus so it might've changed during my stay. Their religious (sharia) law don't really feal that heavy unless you are part of the LGBT community or a bit wanked in the head. A lot of the grocery stores there sell pork but they are tucked away in another section of the store and the no alcoholic beverages law was fine by me since I don't even drink and it does help reduce the crime and vehicle accident rates in the country. There were 2 main christian churches in the capital city and they aren't even hidden in some way at all so it is fine to be non-muslim there. The locals are nice but some are just downright awful just like in other countries and some are ridiculously LAZY. The Bruneians that I worked with were often LATE and leaves early or literally when time strikes to leave the office just like students in grade school except for one Bruneian that I worked with she was very industrious and we're still good friends till this day. There were also more foreign workers compared to local workers in the private sector due to some of the locals wanting a position with higher salary and not start from the bottom but in the government sector it is mostly locals and they're enjoying the time of their lives and part of me feels like there's some kind of corruption going on as the development projects in Brunei were kind of slow. Brunei feels like one of those countries that are happy dandy on the surface but needs some fixing underneath. I also noticed in your video that kampong ayer has changed quite a bit which is cool and it is good seeing you visit the country again in a much more mature version of yourself.

Sounds like their king is doing exactly what he needs to. Takes care of his people, sets the parameters for what is acceptable and is clearly not going over the top, and he’s keeping the land prospering peacefully. He could easily have left the are to turn into a dirt patch, but built spots to highlight the areas. The work he’s done deserves a tip of the hat.

We should all just live around each other as equal individuals. Anyone should be up to the task of taking care of each other for example. That anyone are just like anyone else and each person are a unique individual. With living around each other each person should just be able to think on their own and question everything with logic - think about how anything could work for example. -While also never leaving anyone behind. We should all just live around each other and forget this concept of nationality. No person are represented by anything or anyone else other than theirself. Must never leave literally anyone behind. Even if someone does, thinks, says a terrible thing must just ideally communicate for that person to change from being in the wrong. If someone are going to cause harm should ideally stop that person without harming and then communicate. That anyone should be up to the task of looking out for each other. Another thing, maybe someday there can be technology to bring anyone back alive again as 'death' really are just falling apart - no going to any afterlife, nor disappearing forever. Just falling apart. -Even if have technology to bring anyone back alive again, still must never want anyone to experience being harmed. A person live in their brain maybe able to move down a neuron as electricity and move out of the neuron as a chemical called a neural transmitter which can trigger into a receiver end of a neuron to perhaps be converted back into electricity, moving down neuron had just entered. The brain work on the concept of 'neural networking that learn off of self'; which means a person able to think own thoughts. A brain are like a chair which maybe someone by chance ended up sitting on that chair for theirself. Someone else maybe also have their very own chair (brain) and maybe a person can push someone else out of their chair and take their chair away, should regardless be careful so as to not harm each other. -That any brain are where a person live; whether as a human, bird, monkey, pig, cow, mouse, -etc. That if anyone experience their own unique perspective unlike anyone else then it is impossible for there to be an all knowing deity to know everything as anyone only know everything about theirself, not of another. -I look at my computer monitor and I would like to think anyone else exist and not all just my own shadow copying everything I do. Lastly; on the topic of 'death' should definitely sign up to get frozen / preserved at some facility if to die so that maybe in the future can be brought back alive again with technology. Need to at least get brain preserved. Even though can probably come back regardless if preserved or not, could probably come back sooner maybe with not as advanced technology. Should definitely be frozen / preserved so as to prevent falling apart and potentially end up suffering being exposed to the outside environment. Maybe if fallen apart into the ground maybe say soaked up into a blueberry plant blueberry and say someone as a crow bird eat of the blueberry with their body processing the person that were in that blueberry and turning them into a brain of a small baby crow in an egg and maybe eventually hatch as a crow; maybe losing past life memories due to being easily distracted from the environment maybe due to a small brain, not as much neurons and some degree of instinct drugging perspective. There is this company called 'Alcor' which perhaps offer preserving brain for 80k$ usd and 200k$ for entire body. There are possibly cheaper options available as well maybe like 'Cryonics Institute'. -Ideally preservation infrastructure should be available for anyone freely. Need to mass produce preservation infrastructure like a facility; maybe send people to Antarctica to be frozen for example. So. That is what I say, must never leave anyone behind.

Because ultimately it's only a small region on the island of Borneo. So compared to Malaysia or Indonesia, it's like a small district of these countries. There obviously wouldn't be the same amount of cool stuff in a small country that's mostly one nation with one culture and one natural region than a huge multinational federation that has many different ethnicities, cultures, and different landscapes and foods. Andorra is way smaller than Sweden and has way fewer stuff to see, its more like one city in Sweden. Same here. And it's not anything against Bruneian people at all, but unfortunately that's how this works. Instead of looking at the world by country and country basis, I'd instead look at it as a region and culture basis. I'd love to explore the cultures and traditions of Borneo, but even in that case only like 5% of my trip would be dedicated to Brunei.

I've been to Brunei and I must say it was one of my best trips ever. We had to "hitchhike" our way to the Malaysian border. Throughout my journey, every single local tried to help me get the transportation I needed. A family even offered me a ride to the last 2km before the border. The reason why I went to Brunei is because I had seen your video about it and I wanted to check out if it was really "that bad". My trip proves that it all depends on your personal experiences throughout your journey. I'm glad you gave it a second chance!

Greetings from Chicagoland, Bro’. I’ve been there 🇧🇳. You big time missed the long houses of Brunei. Simply breathtaking experience immersing among the indigenous locals living in peace and harmony. Look it up. There are only handful number of places in the world with long houses including in the Lapland of Sweden. As far Bruneians being happy with absolute monarchy, It just shows to tell you that being able to cast ballots under Jeffersonian model of democracy is not the only way to have a quality life and wealthy country with high H.D.I. and balanced GINI index unlike the 🇺🇸. I too was blown away when I went there witnessing how content most of the people were. By the way, did you notice how many high/end cars were near the pier off the Kempung Ayer? Glad you liked the Empire Hotel. It looks so surreal, doesn’t it? The sunset looking towards the South China Sea off Empire hotel is breathtaking. Thank you for making an amazingly beautiful video.

The Sultan has the most expensive jumbo private jet with some rooms made of crystal in 2 or 3 levels (can't remember if 2 or 3 sorry) and he has his own cockpit to pilot it in!

My husband was born in Brunei (his Dad worked in off-shore oil). We took our two young kids there in 2018 and I fell in love with the place. We went hiking and camping in Ulu Temburong National Park, and that is one of my life highlights of travelling. 9ne baby took very ill while we were there and even HIS hospital visit was free (or VERY cheap), and, our hotel shuttle driver drove us because of our concern. We were blown away by the hospitality and beauty. It was also incredibly peaceful, and everything closing early meant more morning hours to cease the day! I love your country!

I love this video because unlike to your last video on Brunei this reminded me of the year that I spent in Brunei. I had a lot of fun and my year long trip to Brunei with my family really opened my eyes to the world. I remember all the bizarre but amazing buildings, going to the movies around the empire hotel, the friendliness of the Bruneian people and how they always offered discounts to my family and also had times where they would not accept money from us. The main part you missed was Ulu Temburong where you can stay a few nights at a resort next to the river deep in the Bornean Jungle and go exploring waterfalls and their jungle canopy walk.

I visited Brunei about four years back and really liked it. Yes its small, you can see all the sights in a day, there's no enormous shopping malls, but the people were really friendly and I left thinking the place had real charm. Its sort of the opposite of Dubai, which is a place I hate (Brash, soul-less, pointless).

Thanks for this video Drew! We visited Brunei a few weeks ago and made vlogs to share our perspective as fellow Asians - we spent a few days in Bandar Seri Begawan, but spent an equal number of days exploring the less visited west - Kuala Belait, Seria and also the greatest national park there (Ulu Temburong) - it was a VERY unique experience and we were truly shocked by some of the things we saw in our ten days there. But the locals seemed to be quite happy with the benefits they get as citizens! Since we have been travlling SE Asia on a budget of $30 for both of us, we relied hugely on the public bus and cheap ferry services!
