Their Kampung Ayer is an amazing system of it's own. Sewage, clean water supply. They also have their own Fire department, Police station, Schools, Medical facility.. and of course, restaurants and grocery stores.
Wow, what an amazing exploration at Kampung Ayer. Some of the houses there are very beautiful and the walk paths are very nice too. Absolutely love the vibes there...so peaceful and calm !! Yeah, agree that this kampung can be turned into a touristy place. Again, thanks for bringing us along, Mike GG.

2:18 that’s the sultan’s palace! The biggest palace in the world. The palace is usually open for public during Eid Fitr (Islamic festive), from 2nd to 4th Syawal every year. You can meet the sultan & royal family and shake hands with them. They’re serving variety of foods and goodies for the guests. Edit: the palace named Istana Nurul Iman.

Tell them Michael. We the Bruneians general public have voiced our suggestions in relation to the improvement of tourism opportunities in Kg Ayer to the authorities but met with bureaucracy and "no budget" excuses, which is pretty ridiculous considering Brunei's GDP per capita. Anyway, thanks for your great opinions which shamefully should have been the same opinions possessed by the people involved in our country's tourism board.
Great video's brother n sister, hope you enjoy it. Brunei is such a beautiful country this is the reasons why I come back to this country , I like the place and also the people's. Good also to safe the money, if you still in Brunei please come to tasted our food's and drinks in Cafe 101 manglait,simpang 15 gadong😏😏 Brunei selalu di hatiku♥️♥️
Thanks for visiting Brunei and hey if you stay for 1 more month there will be a major event on the 10th October in which thousands of people will be present in the Bandar!
Great background music selection! Also great exploration. Keep going guys! Beautiful Brunei! In Sabah you have similar kampung at Sandakan and Semporna Whilst in Sarawak, Mukah is a great place. Visited these areas before and its enjoyable too! Safe travelling fellow travellers!
Ayer are actually an old way Malay write if we go to old malay book or old news paper we can read all the old writing it will be lot of fun because they also got (') because it is like a direct copy from Jawi (Malay Arabic writing) that why it a common for old Malay speak in "bahasa Melayu baku" Nowadays (in Malaysia) we used a modern Malay writing (the upgrades version). Ayer become Air.. For me.. the old way Malay write is a lot more easier for newbie to understand how it really pronounce.
crocs are super normal to see in kampong ayer but back then crocs aren't over populated....back then when we were kids we used to jump off like the rivers are ours...i miss the old days🙂
hai michael & gigi . i hope one day you can come back and visit brunei again..hope to see n meet you soon.. all the best to dodo explorer@michael & gigi
Travel more guys, meet more people and share with us so that I can plan what I can do in Brunei, even though it means I have to remove tinted glass of my car when reaching there
Hey guys! We live in Brunei, just coincidence that I saw your video! I would recommend visiting Tasek Lama as soon as poss! Let me know if you need anything!
A trip through Ulu in temburong costs around 25 - 35 dollars per person for the whole morning, boat trip deep in the jungle with waterfalls, fish that suck your toes and a picnic.
Kampong Ayer has historically been Brunei's main settlement; for centuries it has been the de facto capital of the Brunei Empire, especially the social and economic center, and also during Brunei's British imperialist period extended to early. The current name "Kampong Ayer" is an outdated Roman spelling of the Malay word "Kampung Air", which literally means "water village". However, the old spelling version has been retained and is still used as the primary name of the place. As an important historical and cultural heritage of Brunei, the survival of Kampong Ayer in modern times has received more and more attention. This is due to the factor of residents emigration and relocation to land. The overall population has been decreasing over the past few decades, from an estimated 28,000 in 1981 to 13,000 in 2011. Declining population, coupled with busy modern lifestyles, is threatening the survival of kampong customs and traditions. al. It also eroded residents' sense of community. You can further visit the many Kampong Ayer located in Sabah/Sarawak and see their many differences in the sense of community diversity (Chinese, Malay and Bumiputera).
Here some explaination ..those part where new house there the part where old Houses the entire spot had burn down ..it includes my grandparents n all their families houses burn down..so from that burn spot they build up a new houses ... Secondly yes during after the incident government did try to build up something new make it more attractive for attraction tourist but here the main problem some local old folks don't want to move out n don't want water village to be moderate by government..it already been plan many years ago..as you can see there lots of empty House left n most the original locals kg Ayer no more staying there..few of those staying there not local ..n the new development Houses bulid on the burning spot it part of government project it a housing estate giving local ppl to own a house with low payment depends on your salary...not only in kg Ayer but almost all district sultan had build houses for his ppl to own a house..
Truly an amazing place where crocodiles and humans still live together. The mangroves in the drone show seem like the whole world is surrounded by beautiful greenery and the river flowing through it is a great place for tourists. I think kampung Ayer can be considered as UNESCO world heritage site.
@@BeyfighterFaris Yes . Illegal Settlement And Chinese Village Also . Aku Pernah Pergi Kampung Nelayan Cina Di Penang , Diorang Buang Sampah Merata , Botol Arak Pun Buang Dalam Laut Begitu Saja . Itu 2 Tahun Lalulah , Sekarang Aku Taktau Lah Kann Sudah Bertambah Baik Atau Semakin Teruk . Tapi Yang Aku Tau Non Malays Kalau Dah Mabuk , Mesti Berperangai Ikut Suka Diorang Jaa . Apek Ni Cakap Macamlah Dia Suci Sangat , Dia Taktau Kalau Di Penempatan² Cina Lagi Teruk Sampahnya Sebab Kawan Aku Kerja Majlis Pembersihan , Dia Cerita Kawasan Cina Lah Kerja Paling Teruk Kena Buat .
Brunei people are very generous. I can confirm this.

Ayer is still in common use for place names. As for Jawi, what a complete joke.
@@byteme9718 why is jawi a joke sir?
@@harizrafie2945 Because it serves no useful purpose and doesn't aid in learning Arabic.

how is that even possible? I mean, how do the pillars hold the houses that strong? isn't the water very deep? though, this is really fascinating!
