... julkisivu ei ole ehka viimeisen paalle muta toisaalta eipa taalla kenenkaan tarvitse kerjatakkaan. Bruneilaisilla ei ole aanioikeutta mutta valtio tarjoaa ilmaisen koulutuksen ja terveydenhuollon seka sokerina pohjalla Brunei on verovapaa maa. Edes yhtioiden ei tarvitse taalla maksaa veroa tyovaenluokasta nyt puhumattakaan. Toisaalta valtionjohto seka sulttaani ovat jopa Sharia-lain ylapuolella joten sulttaani on immuuni syytoksille.. Taman ...

... sidewalks a little girl came up to me and put her hand on her mouth and giggled. She ran to get other little kids and soon I had a crowd laughing and pointing and shrieking with delight. Yeah, that's right little girl...I fell in the water. Big deal, now get the you know what out of my way. The houses looked like they were ready to fall in if those pilings rotted anymore so I am pretty sure they will see how if feels at some point. We actually did get back ...

... country. <br><br>How one man can have so much money (about $35 billion at last count) is because he shares the wealth. Brunei has a 94% literacy rate (higher than Portugal), life expectancy is 77 years (higher than Scotland) and there are free pensions for all, free schooling, free health care, free sport &amp; leisure centres, cheap loans and no income tax. As long as the Sultan keeps it real for his homies, they won't have a revolution and hang his ass on live TV.<br>

... out bus of our travels so far. It was at least 30 years old and chugged along at no faster than 15 miles an hour. It sounded as if it was going to break down at any second and we were worried that we were going to be stranded in the middle of nowhere in the blazing midday sun. It would actually have been quicker to walk to the border. After undergoing the customary health checks for Swine Flu, we were waved through Immigration without ...

... the town of Limbang at the end of the trek, so that we only had to hike with a small daypack each. This meant that we could take very little clothing and toiletries with us to last for the 5 days. The flight to Mulu took half an hour on a twin prop plane that flew low over the jungle. Our first night&#8217;s accommodation was in the Royal Mulu Resort on the edge of the National Park. This boded very well for the rest of the tour, we thought, as the hotel was ...

... Back down again and off to our Jungle Lodge for a very pleasant lunch by the river. We were pretty tired by the sweaty trek up the hill and had a nap to recharge the batteries. The Lodge was basic, but at least there was air-conditioning in our bunkbed room for just the three of us. <br>After the nap, Melissa told us we could do a float downriver - intriguing. We thought that white-water rafting was an option, but the river level was so low, the longboats had a problem ...

... rules of the country, boys and girls are separated, so I was sleeping in a different wing to David. David said he was thrilled to get some peace at last (how rude!). We set off for lunch and found a food hall where I tried Buttermilk chicken (very tasty). Then we headed off to look at the Mosque. It felt like we had wandered into the UAE as we went up to this massive white building with glittering gold domes, surrounded by water. There were some really pretty fountains around it, and ...

... Forrest which is deff noticeable (I think the trees would clam the town in 4months if people let it) all the cars are super clean and new!!

... sentier. Beau chemin mais qui a vite tourne en bouette. Mais au bout du chemin une belle riviere et chute que nous avons profiter. Un peu deranger par les petits poissons qui nous mordillaient les jambes. Rejean aimait bien, il riait, mais pas moi. En soiree, nous sommes alles voir les bibittes nocturne avec un guide. Une chance parce-que nous on etait aveugle. Elle nous a trouvee des grenouilles, araignees, moon rat (rat blanc) (pas tres impressionner par nous), oiseaux qui ...

... about B$50/ day if you don't do too much. If you were to purchase fuel, it's dirt cheap if you are a local. There's a foreigner tax and you can only get petrol from certain stations. It seems like Shell is sponsoring the country as you see their signs everywhere. The only things to really see in Brunei is the Mosques and to try to catch a glimpse of the Sultans house. You can't see much of his house from the street as it is gated and far away from the road. If you try to get a look ...
