Truly Rich Brunei

Brunei is a rich country! I think many of you would have known this but do you know how rich? Recently i passed by Brunei on my way to Limbang, a town in Sarawak but the shortest way to there from Kota Kinabalu was going through Brunei. The first indication that Brunei was truly rich was the number of fire hydrants they have along the road.....there was one for every maybe 100 meters...its really crazy! There was hydrant even there was no house or building in vicinity. The only reason i can figure why they need so many hydrants was Brunei has so much oil that they were worried that someone throw out a cigarette bud on the ground and caused fire....really really filthy rich!!!






Besides hydrants, Brunei also has really numerous number of signboards along the road. Its like every 30 meters or less you will see one signboard. It must be really good doing signboard business in Brunei.


They even have one signboard for those want to go for a swim.......in their car!
