Brunei, officially the Nation of Brunei, the Abode of Peace, is located on the north coast of the island of borneo in Southeast Asia. (Wikipedia) My sister-in-law, Tonya, shot this brief clip. She and my brother make frequent trips to southeast Asia and spent most of the last 20+ years in Indonesia and Malaysia. My brother make several trips to China each year and returns with wonderful stories. Some interesting facts about Brunei:
