The tiny but thriving Islamic Sultanate of Brunei perches on the northwestern coast of Borneo, completely encircled by the East Malaysian state of Sarawak.

Brunei is a little slice of Islamic heaven. Alcohol is virtually unobtainable, there's no nightlife to speak of, and the political culture encourages quiet acquiescence to the edicts of the sultan. The folk of Brunei are amply rewarded for their conformist ways with free healthcare, free education, free sporting centres, cheap loans and high, tax-free wages.

New Focus on Brunei's Schools


New Focus on Brunei's Schools

Brunei has an education system to be proud of, which has made the recent discovery of dirty and badly maintained toilet facilities at 180 schools all the more unacceptable for the Ministry of Education.
