Brunei-Seria and Kuala Belait area

Seria Town,oil town of Brunei.


At the Restaurant below Hotel Koperasi our place of stay,
the food is quite tasty,price wise almost similar to ours except that it's in Brunei dollar,
have to multiply by 2.4.


Beach front in Seria,notice the bund or wave breaker.
The talk is that after almost a decade of pumping of oil,
the ground level of the area have sunk to almost that of the sea.











These nodding donkeys,almost 800 of them works day and night with its pump controlled by remote from central control stations.















This is pump number 43.

Watch out, for there are many Gurkhas from the Royal Gurkha Rifles training here
and for me Brunei is one of the safest place to go to in South East Asia if not the world.
No alcohol drinks sold openly to locals,no pubs,no karaoke,no lottery or massage parlour so no drunks and less sin committed but wait, becareful they can still get their kicks across the border at Limbang,Labuan and Miri.





Evolution of the Shell Logo.








This stand is for remote control boats during the weekend.



The Compressor House of BLNG.



















View by Sg Belait,notice the crystal clear waters of this river
and most of the others in Brunei,the reasons is there is bare mininum land clearing for agriculture here,logging is for internal use only and from my many trips here i haven't seen any palm oil or rubber tree yet!
