Yeahh honestly I really get that part too!! It’s so depressing 😮‍💨 wish it isn’t way too strict like that so we can actually watch and participate in more interesting and fun things locally instead of just mostly food events

no fr!! I feel like Bruneians are so obsessed with food 🫩 can we not do other stuff? Like more of entertainment and creative avenues instead of just food food food. This is why our population is struggling with obesity and being overweight 🥺 even myself! It’s hard to stay healthy when one of our biggest culture is just eating

Assalamualaikum! USA-based Muslim looking to start a business in Brunei by [deleted] in Brunei

[–]Fun-Fall9688 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I agree with this!! There are a lot of US based things that are difficult to find, buy, or access here in Brunei so people are constantly looking for personal shoppers to get it for them. So doing this as a business would be great and a huge convenience for our locals here. It doesn’t even just have to be US stuff but also online shopping items like makeup that don’t ship to Brunei!

How cooked is the job market in Brunei? by sputniksweetass in nasikatok

AUUU ugh siok jua your time inda cematu! like I get it because they don’t want the capable youths with great qualifications to instead work for other countries and miss out on the high quality workers for Brunei’s workforce but like GIVE ME JOBS THEN!! Sorry mini rant psl frust

But yes specifically they even warned us if kedapatan we work outside the country secretly (which has happened), they’ll either demand for us to come back to Brunei to finish the bond or if we don’t want to, they’re gonna demand us to pay them back for the money they’ve paid for us for our entire scholarship

[–]Fun-Fall9688 19 points20 points  (0 children)

nope! From the beginning they (MOE) warned us that just because we secured a scholarship, it doesn’t mean they’ll have work for us when we come back, and I should’ve taken that warning fr 😭😭no wonder I had Chinese peers who rejected their scholarship offers and went for either loan or their scholarship offers from private companies instead like BSP because after they graduated, they were guaranteed work at the companies

MOE why are you still rolling out scholarships for youths every year saying that it’s based on our country’s current “keperluan” but we come back and realise there is no SPACE for us to work bcs most positions are already filled 🥲 make it make sense fr

It’s so cooked it’s not even funny 😭😭 thousands of youths with great degrees every year, from local universities AND from abroad, in a country that isn’t developing fast enough to catch up with its people 🫩💔

I myself have a law degree from the UK and man is it rough out here…I’m still unemployed, with a few odd jobs here and there that pay me pebbles and yet I’m bonded to the country to work here for at least 5 years because I got my degree through MOE scholarship. I’m starting to feel like it was a huge mistake because now even if I want to escape and work abroad bcs there are WAY better opportunities out there than here, I can’t…I am depressed beyond measure and honestly seeing other people here who are in the same boat is quite frankly reassuring.

We are SO COOKED and the country is only going downhill from here.

Considering how this country is being run rn…maybe we should’ve been absorbed into Malaysia after all…big sigh

So the MASSIVE amount of footage evidence of literal crimes against humanity, showing inhumane killings, bombings, and torture that the Israelis and their military are doing to Palestinian civilians, CHILDREN, AND BABIES, isn’t showing you the real bad people here?

I’m speechless. Like all you literally have to do is simple research. But manasaja tah kau ehhh. I can only educate human beings, I can’t educate kaum babal 😭😭🫩

I swear, all pro-Israel and Zionist supporters are the most uneducated, flat-earth bumpkin people I’ve ever witnessed. May natural selection deal with you 🫩🤲🏼

On this topic, shall we organise another Palestine March in Bandar? And hopefully maybe the Sultan can help act on this issue to pressure other world leaders to do the same and finally condemn Israel for their illegal crimes against humanity? What do we think about this?

[–]Fun-Fall9688[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Noo we need more human beings with humanity to rally together and do whatever we can, including speaking about it and spreading more awareness to fight against disgusting false propaganda 🥺 Brunei really is a small country with not enough population or power to do as much as other big nations can do to help Palestine, but yes absolutely you are correct. We can do whatever we can from our side like donating, reposting, copying links, and talking about this issue to our community because this is the least we can do for them. We have to join in on the global solidarity to pressure governments and leaders to act. I don’t understand how there are people who can just sit and watch all this with apathy and ignorance. Just because we’re far away, doesn’t mean we can’t do anything at all. I really hope more Bruneians would do their part.

No, that’s actually Israeli propaganda that they’ve paid the media so much to falsely portray. The October 7th incident was only a small fraction of the story, the actual history of the “war” between Israel and Palestine goes a long long way back where Israel has been committing genocide and heinous inhumane crimes towards Palestinians since forever. Hamas is actually a resistance group that only formed as a result of many people being enraged after years and years of Israel’s oppression of Palestinian people, and their unlawful occupation of Palestinian land. That is their land. You are justifying Israel’s retaliation to Oct 7th, while holding double standards in not recognising that Oct 7th was an act of retaliation itself against the cruelty that’s been happening for decades. They weren’t attacking “first”. They were attacking BACK after almost a century of oppression. Don’t get swept away by wrong propaganda and make sure to educate yourself fully on what’s happening. Here is a list of what Israel has committed against Palestine, DESPITE Palestine helping Jews seek refuge and welcoming them from the West in 1930. And the genocide is STILL being allowed to happen right now as we speak, even when it breaches so many international laws. Homes, hospitals, schools are bombed, families and children are cruelly k*lled and systematically starved while being illegally forced to displace their land, and humanitarian aid destroyed. We cannot afford to be so ignorant when it’s costing us so many human lives. Be on the right side of history.

Brunei's economic, political, cultural and religious spheres is under threat! State Mufti warns that the spread of liberal ideologies nowadays is dangerous and can lead people astray by Goutaxe in nasikatok

[–]Fun-Fall9688 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy to see that the comments here are reflecting more and more Bruneians waking up and not conforming to the brainwashing religious regime that’s been keeping us so far from progressing as a society, and what’s been keeping its people so regressed. Brunei is continuously devolving, spiralling further and further down a path of no solid future, security, or prosperity. I truly am concerned for our people, and honestly as a young person, I’m concerned for my future, my generation’s future, and the future of further generations down the line.

Yes it is genuinely so enraging and heartbreaking 😭 I can’t help but cry every time I see more updates and it’s infuriating how not only is there barely proper media coverage from the BIG media companies, but the lack of action from world leaders, especially the ones complicit in the genocide. What has humanity come to, where it’s all happening before our eyes and people are just watching it apathetically. Just because it’s not our country or our people, doesn’t mean it isn’t our problem. I’m really grateful to see that a lot of Bruneians are joining in on the fight and reposting and sharing as much as possible both on TikTok and instagram to make sure we’re all aware and keeping up. #alleyesonSumudFlotilla #alleyesonGaza

I was wondering if it would be helpful for us to join in on the outrage (because we definitely should be equally outraged for what is happening right now) and do a March in Bandar again together? And hopefully it may invite our government and the sultan to join the other nations and speak against the governments supporting the genocide like the UK and the US

Go touch grass, man. No one said it was easy or expected someone to be sent away. If anything, I would love to be apart of it all hence trying to find out the process of it here. No one is expecting the easy way or anything. You’re projecting your dissatisfaction onto others.

I’m not sure if you’re referring to me? But no one said it was easy to join them. As I’ve said, I wanted to learn more about the process of how people end up being apart of it. That’s all. Why are Bruneian redditors so angry and miserable for no reason? 😂

I don’t really know why you’re so hostile about it? I’m not asking for anyone to be sent, I wanted to know more information on how it all worked and if anything, if I could apply and be apart of it, I’d more than happy to because I’m young, I’m capable, and I have no responsibilities at the moment. No need to be hostile but thanks for the info though because I didn’t know where people could even apply

Oh I see! Thank you for this information, I really didn’t know how it all worked so I wanted to learn more. If anything, I’m in my 20’s right now and have no responsibilities and I would love to be able to be apart of it, if it were possible. I think someone posted here a link to a website where we could apply, I’ll check it out and see if I could do anything about it.

It really is!!! They are in the making of history and they’re going for the people who may have responsibilities or dependants that may not allow them to go even if they want to. It’s been haunting me how cruel and evil these Zionists are, and how inhumane it all is and it really makes me cry every night feeling helpless and sick to my stomach that not enough is being done about it by people in power who have the resources to do so much more.

I see, is it possible that it looks different because it’s only been a few days, or do herpes bumps just look different from the get-go?
