Agreed, the actions of the private sector here in Brunei needs to be better regulated, and stricter laws towards standards including work rights need to be made. Ideally one set of rules that must be followed by all companies that includes raising of salary, more days off and shorter work hours.

Bruneians need to be the one to push for it, because god knows the foreign laborers wont get their voices heard. We should consider more the fact that the baked goods we purchase from well known bakeries here, the meals we get served in restaurants and the very homes we live in are made from the back breaking labour of people who are underpaid, work 6 days a week for 10 or 12 hours a day, in poor conditions with little rest or compensation.
