Hi Yan, I went to Brunei last year because I like places most people don't go. I would say, I had the best experience there compared to all other 10 southeast asian countries. The major reason is the mild characteristics of Brunei people. I was told when you blend the Malay personality and Asian muslim, that is what you get. People are so well-lived and well-taken care of in that country, so it reflects in all my interactions with their daily attitudes towars life. Brunei is so impressive, but I will say for tourists who typically want to see major sights may not like it. For travelers who loves culture and experience, Brunei is a must visit/

Bruneian Chinese here! I don’t see a lot of videos related to Brunei so it’s nice to finally see a few esp from Chinese youtubers. Saw that you went to Seria town so hope you had a chance to visit the Billionth Barrel Monument and OGDC. A night’s stay at The Empire Hotel, Jerudong or trying ambuyat (national dish) would also be fantastic 😁. Hope you had a great time in Brunei!!

My wife and I love your videos, and we are currently watching right from the beginning. You are a wonderful presenter, your delight in meeting new people and seeing new places is just totally heart warming. We will never visit the places that you have been but seeing them through your eyes is the next best thing.

As a young boy/man serving the compulsory military service (Singapore Armed Forces), we were sent to Brunei Temburong Jungle for our jungle survival and jungle warfare training... Thanks for bringing back sweet memories ❤❤❤😊

​@@porquee Please come visit! Accommodation, attraction tickets and private hire cabs are the most expensive for a tourist in Singapore but there are many free things to do. Food can be very cheap if you visit the hawker centres, less than $5 USD for a good quality and fulfilling meal. Public transport is also very affordable, it's usually less than $2 USD per ride. If you're coming from the West, Singapore is comparable or even cheaper but it's definitely more expensive than other Southeast Asian countries.

The world is full of beautiful people! Brunei 🇧🇳 is peaceful, full of fabulous natural wonders and blessed with great abundance.

I was born in Seria in 1959 but left when I was three years old because of the 1962 Brunei revolt. At that time, the old Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien, father of the present Sultan of Brunei had to fend off the insurgents of the North Kalimantan National Army. Many of you may not even know about the Brunei revolt in 1962. I myself was too young to remember much. When the fighting broke out, my parents took us to neighbouring Sarawak for safety and we never went back.

@@DuncanLeeSam even among bruneians no one really talk about it except older gens who live through it. A brunei party led by AM Azahari wanted to establish a North Kalimantan state which consist of Brunei, Sabah and Sarawak with the sultan of brunei as the head, however the sultan didnt agree to it. there were interesting accounts from some of the rebels who claimed that they joined "the revolt" because they were told that the sultan was held hostage in his palace, so they thought they were fighting to free the sultan, while some thought they were fighting to chase away the brits. meanwhile according to AM Azahari, the leader himself, said he didnt know there was a rebellion because he was in London at that time and the rebellion was led by other people from the party. Azahari were kicked out from Brunei and lived the rest of his life in Indonesia.

So happy you were able to connect with Flo. Life is too short, spend all the time together you can and enjoy the love of travel. Great video.

I love how Flo so cheerfully mentioned that there are crocodiles in the water after pointing out the missing boards. 😄

❤Have a good time with Flo in Brunei. You are close to Indonesia where I live. God bless you both 🎉❣️

Yes. Brunei is a very nice place worth visiting Thanks for the video. 🙏🙏🙏

I’ve been watching your awesome videos on China, and I’m blown away by the stunning landscapes and rich culture. Thanks for visiting our country! Hope you’re having a blast during your stay. And big thanks for this amazing video!

Some more beautiful country - thanks.

Thanks for coming to Brunei and introducing the country to the world. I have been a subcriber of your channel for quite sometime. i am very happy that you came and made a video about Brunei. Thank you again and hope you guys had a wonderful stay while in Brunei.

Huge fan of your work. I wished i knew you were coming to Brunei. would have loved to host you. But then i realised you were here during Ramadhan and I had my first even visit to China.. inspired by your videos. I hope you enjoyed Brunei.

This video was so beautifully filmed! Love from Singapore 🤍

I’m sad to say I didn’t know about this country before this video. Thank you for educating me, Yan. ❤

I have heard since the 1980's that the Sultanate of Brunei is one of the most Peaceful, Safest, Tranquil and Cleanest country in Southeast Asia. The Brunei Citizens are religious, disciplined and law abiding people. The country is very rich because of the Oil and Gas industry.

Very glad you are with Flo. I like when he is in the videos. Very friendly people. Good drone footage.

Thanks for sharing beautiful places ❤

Hi, I’m so excited to see your coverage on Brunei. As a Bruneian here, I would like to clarify that the smoke along the highway is actually forest fire due to extreme dry and hot weather we encounter the past weeks. There were even heatwave warning from the local authorities. It’s sad to see the green trees being caught on fire at certain areas.

Some people speak bad of Brunei I liked it very much Thought it was nice

I like it when she puts her hand over the camera at The End. 🎥

Hi Yan and Flo….another interesting and quality video from you…enjoy your stay in Brunei.

Greetings! Thank you so much for another excellent, beautiful, interesting video. I started to cry again at the beginning. Love China and Asian ppl so much. So glad you got to see Flo again. You complement each other so well and enjoy traveling and adventure. Amazing drone filming and great background music. Thanks for your videos! Us followers really love and appreciate you. Keep up the great work. Be safe and careful! God bless you.

Thanks Yan & Flo ,sharing your adventure in this friendly country, your videos are excellent, backed up by aerial filming, its like actually being there,your speedy river taxi was fantastic, brilliant.

absolutely phenomenal production.

I’m so excited for this series!

Great to see the two of you back together at last! The shots of the sunset were especially beautiful.

Hello! Unfortunately we were experiencing a bit of a heatwave around the time you were in Brunei, which explains the forest fire. It was especially challenging since it was during Ramadhan as well. Anyway, awesome video! You've captured the nature in Brunei very well ❤

I enjoy you both together! Thank you for sharing your adventures together ❤️

Brunei is my kind of paradise. So peaceful, friendly and good mannered people, pristine nature, slow paced life. A hidden gem indeed. I hope Brunei never become famous tourist destination.

Just excellent drone filming. I felt I was there. Thank for that. In Brasil there are a wet land like that called Pantanal , very rich in biodiversity.

Somewhere, below you have a welcome from Nepal. British Gurkha soldiers (provided by men from Nepal) assist with the security of Brunel (not sure about now). I spent a little time there as a Gurkha Officer from Hong Kong aeons ago. But, later returned as an expedition leader with young people travelling to neighbourong Sarawak and Sabah to trek in the rain forest (difficult) or go deep into the forest on boats on smaller rivers. Borneo is truly a paradise. I remember drinking beer poured from teapots pretending it was tea (alcohol is illegal in Brunel - or it was). The people are like the flowers, beautiful! Your video brought back many wonderful memories of Borneo.

Please don’t ever stop making videos 🙏🏻 Your heart is in every single minute of each video and your kindness is woven into the fabric of each film. The way you convey your view of each place you visit is only surpassed by one single person in the world, Sir David Attenborough. To me this is by no means an exaggeration. I’m just trying to explain the impact your films have. I want to visit every single place you’ve been with the exception of the extremely high and narrow places, due to my fear of heights. Thank you for what you’re doing! I’m as proud of you as I am of my daughter and son.

TERIMA KASIH for showing rural Brunei 💚💚

I didnt know that fact for Chinese people lol...i am Chinese and I have been to Brunei many times for business...love Brunei....somehow ur videos make Brunei even nicer than I remembered.

Thank you so much for this episode, it definitely widened my mind as I’ve only heard of Brunei but, didn’t know much about it, it’s a wonderful country, thank you again, I’ve watched every episode and it’s wonderful, good luck for future

We have been to Sarawak only 1/2 hour from the boarder to Bruni. It's a beautiful area Love you video ❤ from Queensland Australia

Hi Yan & Flo, TQ for sharing your journey to Brunei! After that, U can try to go over to Kota Kinabalu Sabah, rent a car or bike to Kundasang, for a cooler weather & majestic view of a 3rd tallest mountain in SEA. If time permit, don;t miss & it is nicer to visit the many beautiful islands from Semporna town - those islands around Sipadan (as compare to the so-so Gaya, Manukan, Sapi islands but nearer to KK city). If you drive or biking, be careful as the roads in Sabah are hilly and not well maintained. Since u r there, why not plan to visit wild Orang Utan, Proboscis Monkey etc and if in Semporna, dont miss the try out the seafood there. (but check the freshness & ask the raw price & labour to cook, if self buy seafood at the market or street vendors etc) Enjoy your trip!

Nothing these days is more peaceful for me than being absorbed by one of your videos.

I believe the reason I enjoy Ur work Yan is that U take us along n allow us to perceive, what we will😊 I can’t help but feel I’m along side U due to the immediacy n the very human interactions that we get to share with U n I truly love how U allow whom ever U encounter a place in Ur videos💕 thank you n blessings

Thanks for every aspects of Brunei.❤

Good afternoon Yan, & Flo, my goodness what a different contrast it seems after leaving China to Brunie, the first thing noticed not a large amount people & Prayers being said at the Mosque, it was interesting the old fishing villages on the water, I think the Sultan of Brunie is trying to make sure all his people live in good housing, extra, it was wonderful seeing all the rain forest trees being looked after,not a lot of people in the lake area, your guide that showed you around the fishing area also showed you the large Crocodiles that were resting on the river shores were the ones that were in the crocodile farm many years before, great video work Fellows, it being Ramadan its a public holiday & Fasting to late evening,then its time to eat as normal, loved the video Yan, keep them coming, Regards & Best Wish to you Both, Trevor.W.Bacelli.
