Bandar Seri Begawan (BSB) is the capital of Brunei Darussalam, a small but fabulously wealthy sultanate on the island of Borneo, home to approximately 100,000 residents in the capital and 430,000 in the country. It operates on Brunei Darussalam Time (BNT, UTC+8), a fixed year-round offset. Brunei is an absolute monarchy ruled by Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah — one of the world's longest-reigning and reportedly one of the world's wealthiest individuals, whose family controls the state's enormous oil and gas wealth. Brunei is almost entirely surrounded by the Malaysian state of Sarawak, creating a geographically unusual nation split into two non-contiguous parts. Citizens pay no income tax and receive free education, free healthcare, and heavily subsidised housing — an oil-funded welfare state model. The Omar Ali Saifuddien Mosque, rising from an artificial lagoon in the capital, is one of Asia's most spectacular mosques. The Kampong Ayer (Water Village) — a cluster of villages built on stilts over the Brunei River housing about 13,000 people — has been continuously inhabited for 1,300 years.
