Already collapsed.
chemical industry drop over 90%, petroleum industry nearly dried up not sure how long it can sustain, and now relying on lng which is also not in good condition.
no other industry supporting their economy and burden by currency policy, can't compete at all with other SEA nation.

i visited this country many times, it's clean, peaceful, moderate and of course... boring. i wonder if this is the reason (oil running dry) the king applied hudud because oil is running out and he scared
people will revolve or something?

Yup, one of the reason the king go for hudud is to control his ppl from going revolve him.
but how long can he maintain it is a big question to answer.
as he have limited money to run a country.

To malaysians who dislike living in malaysia, want hudud and don't care about country's economy, brunei is perfect place for you.

What if we like living here and care about the economy but just dislike the gomen and are unhappy that they rigged the election to win with a minority vote?

Oddly enough, I want GST though...suck it poorfags. tongue.gif

More like when in desperate times, religion is often used to quell dissent and give folks a false sense of superiority.

Those rich fags with lots pf luxury car going to hit badly with already expensive road tax, insurance and now maintaining the car going to be more expensive.

ok lets take a look at it this way. non muslims in bunei already force to stfu and cannot challenge islamic law.

there will always be reasonably minded/progressive/moderate muslims in brunei who are against the hudud and are aware of the sultan and his "pious' lifestyle. but what can they do? if they voice criticism will they be accuse as murtads/kafirs/munafiqs/hypocrites/liberal muslims/apostates etc?? unsure.gif

they can't. you think it is petronas?

brunei's oil is controlled by shell. shell is a public company, it is responsible to shareholders in terms of profitability. it won't play such game.

It's a JV. The government owns half of the company.

I tak sokong hudud pun...but I dun see what's the fuss behind this. PAS want to implement, they are welcome to try. I dun see why people are blaming DAP for this. This is a democracy after all, and PAS has a right to put forward its own motions.

If anything, I blame UMNO and BN. PAS are a minority party. Hudud will not pass without their support.

Good. Richfags also escape paying tax via various sneaky methods. Now your BMW and Mercedes and handbags all get tax. AHAHAHA. rclxms.gif

I drive small car with good fuel economy, dun like to buy branded stuff, lead simple lifestyle with some geeky tech toys (kena GST, but that's OK...I still can afford)...I happy.

Everyone else can suck it. tongue.gif

Employed or assigned best people for the job is important.
Countries that doesn't follow this rule can see their going down one by one.
The one will suffer are rakyat. Even if country bankrap, persons in power still have biliions in their banks.
