INSANE Street Food in Brunei 🇧🇳 (Night Market Edition)

[@labibahshafiee]

Hi Chris. It’s Labibah here from Roostar! Thanks for dropping by. It was great talking to you. Wishing you safe travel to wherever you go. Cheers! For those who wish to try the Spicy Borneo that Chris had, do drop by to Yayasan Food Street. We’re now open from Tuesday - Sunday 3pm until 10pm. Side note, We have moved to the middle wooden hut (right next to Nasi Katok M&M) 😄

English is our 2nd language here, we learn it from kindergarten. It's essential when you're looking for a job, especially in the private sector. Education is free for all at govt owned schools. As you pursue higher education like universities, you are also given monthly allowance. You can also apply for govt scholarships to study overseas. They will usually include flights, uni/course fees, one-time book and clothing allowance and monthly allowance too.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much for sharing!

[@philly5164]

That’s incredible! Sounds better then America😂😂😂. Seems like a wonderful country, imma make a visit there soon 🎉

[@marul69]

@@philly5164 Come to Brunei if you wanna take a step back from your hectic daily routines, to just unwind and enjoy the open space. You certainly won't find the manic traffic, noisy environment or massive crowds when you're in Brunei. I always tell my visiting friends that it's actually a place to do nothing, although as you can see form Chris's videos, there's lots to do and he hasn't even covered our other districts like Temburong, Tutong and Kuala Belait. Our attractions are modest at best and still developing. We Bruneians don't like to oversell what we gave and would prefer visitors to discover it on their own and be surprised by it all.

[@s0neskim]

@@philly5164pls do so! Most uni students can afford to buy new phones without having to go to work because of the allowances given by the Sultan and his government. I recently bought my own ipad, headphone, airpod and a stand mixer using my allowance.

[@hayleykhan896]

Wow, Brunei is so misunderstood! What lovely people! Great vid as always Chris, making me hungry! 😂

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes definitely! Thank you so much Hayley! I hope this series changes others opinions about Brunei

[@SkylinesTheLimit]

Man I gotta admit that Chris is so cool with his fans, you can just tell by the way he keeps it real while interacting with them in a friendly manner that shows appreciation unlike a lot of other youtubers who kind of just quickly greet and brush them away.

[@stevewoo5606]

Dude, this place is so orderly, clean, and pleasant. I would have never thought of the night market visit to Brunei. You really have a nice presentation, casual, friendly and polite. Good on you for being such a great creator.

[@gihanmoonasinghe8090]

My perception about Brunei has been completely changed after watching your 02 videos Chris..awesome country to hangout it seems 😊

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much! That is the goal with this channel 🙏🏻❤️

[@Travelwithchris]

Yes sooo good!

All looks so clean compare to many other night market in south east asia... and these people are so nice!!!! Cool video bro! Cheers from Cambodia

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much for the support!

[@travelwithyourears7528]

Great videos (I've watched all three already), and you have very much captured the essence of Brunei, which I left about 11 years ago after working there for 9 years, trying to promote tourism for the country. Too bad you weren't around in those days, as we could have done with positive influencers such as you who really gets the place. Actually, one of my promotional lines was to emphasize how Brunei and its capital are different from the rest of Asia...more peaceful, quiet, super safe, clean, no scams or pushy vendors, like a more chilled and less crowded version of Singapore, with a more Malay vibe. One of the target segments for the promotions were expats living in cities like Bangkok, Manila, Hong Kong, Shanghai or Ho Chi Minh who could take a short break only 2-3 hours flight away to experience a different aspect of Asia, with lots of untouched nature nearby and the whole mystique of the Sultan and the country's oil wealth. Hope you were able to extend your stay and visit Temburong district, the Jerudong area and more of Bandar...will keep a lookout for more videos, which have brought so many pleasant memories of my years there...really miss the place!

[@RespectAndLoveAndPeaceWins]

This is one of the best videos. Such great vibes and all the people were really positive, talkative and camerafriendly. Brunei seems like a fantastic place so thank you for showing us. Stay safe and stay cool. 🙌

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@Ed7501]

wow... never knew they speak such good English there

[@oskarumesh2394]

Yes I was also surprised seeing that girl speaking English fluently with chris.

[@yanyanys]

Brunei was colonised by the British back in the day and it's the 2nd language here. Bruneians even took Cambridge O level and A level exams

[@DonJ1973]

What a great video Chris. I admit that Brunei was not even on my radar at all. And I love Asia. That night market looks like a really cool spot. Now you’re making me want to go. And that’s cool that you ran into that couple who are fans of the channel. You’re becoming a worldwide known influencer 😊. Oh and there is the 626 night market in Arcadia during summers. But it’s insanely expensive.

[@Travelwithchris]

Thank you so much bro! I will have to check that market out sometime! Definitely when you make it back to Asia, visit Brunei!

Reminds me of when I visited Malaysia, I was actually quite surprised by how well many Malaysians could speak English, or at least get by with the basics.

[@apair4002]

Before this a youtuber make Brunei looks bad for the sake of viewers, subscribers & KZbin money. Now people praising Brunei citizen because of politeness, fluent in English language, welcoming, many good vibes, great country and so on. They are well educated with good morality. Brunei always a great country, the only bad are the haters & bad youtubers that keep spreading hate.

Hi just wanna add on the information. As a local here in Brunei. Id say its a developing country and not everyone is rich as what the medias or google said tho but all I can say it that mainly people do live well but not rich if that makes sense 😂 but most of em does not earn a big amount in terms of salary. Some might earn just enough and some dont unfortunately. 👍 we do have oil but then the government also is trying to venture on other resources as well.
