Certified School Teachers Needed for High Paying Positions in Brunei

Description

Brunei Darussalam is an independent Sultanate located 450 km north of the Equator, less than 2 hours by air from Singapore, on the northwest coast of the island of Borneo, which it shares with parts of Malaysia and Indonesia.

Brunei is a small but, thanks to oil and gas reserves, very rich country. Largely jungle and beach, Brunei was a British protectorate between 1888 and 1984.

A typical day will begin like a pleasant summer’s day, becoming more humid in the afternoon. There will then follow a brief, powerful and refreshing thunderstorm. A cooler night-time will then descend before the cycle begins again.

The country has 160 km of coastline on the warm South China Sea, with a hilly and inaccessible interior covered in untouched primary rainforest . The capital of Brunei is Bandar Seri Begawan, which is locally known as Bandar or BSB. This is a lively shopping and dining hub with a population of about 100,000. Tutong town is much smaller and is very close to some excellent beaches. Kuala Belait, the main town of the Belait district, is Brunei’s second town and is near the Shell complex of Seria, with its large expatriate population. Temburong district and its main town, Bangar, are less developed, pristine jungle areas, and are reached by a 45 minute boat trip from BSB or a two hour drive passing through Malaysian territory.
