Brunei, known as the “Abode of Peace”, is a small state in Southeast Asia located on the north-west coast of the island of Borneo in the Indonesian Archipelago. Its 161 kilometres of coastline faces the South China Sea while it is enclosed on land by the Malaysian state of Sarawak, which divides it in two. Brunei Darussalam comprises four districts, Brunei-Muara (where the capital Bandar Seri Begawan is situated), Tutong, Belait and Temburong.
