If You Want Different, Then Brunei Is Perfect for You Hornbill School &Treetops Nursery Brunei Living & Working in Brunei Date : September 2020 If you want different, then Brunei is perfect for you Local Area The country of Brunei is situated on the north-west coast of the island of Borneo, the 3rd largest island in the world. Its 100 mile coastline faces the South China Sea and it covers a total area of 2226 sq miles, less than a quarter the size of the UK. Brunei is surrounded by Sarawak, Sabah and Kalimantan. Sarawak and Sabah are states of Malaysia (previously annexed by the UK). Kalimantan is the Indonesian part of the island of Borneo. The Indonesian part covers some 580.000 km2 (225.000 sq mi). This vast area is home to only 12 million people, so most of the provinces, especially the interior is very sparsely populated, and the vast rain forests here are some of the most bio-diverse areas in the world. The country’s full name is Negara Brunei Darussalam, meaning ‘Abode of Peace’. The water village in the Capital is often described as the ‘Venice of the East’. The country’s capital Bandar Seri Begawan (fondly known as BSB) and international airport are located in the Brunei-Muara district, approximately 90 minutes’ drive from Seria where the Brunei Garrison is located. Seria Garrison is on the coast, near the southern border between Brunei and Sarawak Malaysia. Local sights include impressive mosques and a water village in the capital. For the more adventurous, there are opportunities to trek in the national parks and jungle. British Forces Brunei is spread over three sites: Sittang Camp (jungle training facility), Medicina Lines where Garrison Support Services are located and Tuker Lines which houses Garrison Headquarters and the Resident Infantry Battalion (RIB). Apart from Sittang Camp, the Garrison is located just outside Seria, in the Belait district. Hornbill School is next to Tuker Lines and is not behind the lines. Treetops Nursey is situated in Mumong Community Centre adjacent to the Mumong SFA housing estate 8 km from Tuker Lines - it does not sit behind the wire. The local towns of Seria and Kuala Belait, offer a range of retail outlets, local fresh food markets, supermarkets, banking facilities, tourist offices, a variety of restaurants including Chinese, Indian, Italian and open air eating in fairly basic surroundings. The government offices are located in Kuala Belait for processing paperwork associated with owning a car and the employment of domestic staff (Amahs). Brunei Garrison provides a wide variety of amenities including a gym, swimming pool, splash pool for small children, squash courts, tennis courts, library, education centre, a post office, sport complex, volley ball courts, basketball courts, youth centre for children, NAAFI and Ram Dhani (convenience store, canteen, dry cleaners, laundry and tailoring service provided). The Patio bar and Chautari restaurant are the focus for evening social events within the garrison. The NAAFI Sells a range groceries, Iceland frozen food, stationery/cards/magazines, duty free alcohol/cigarettes, bake & bite hot and cold savouries/snacks and much more. All MOD UKBC staff (Teachers & Nursey Management) are eligible to join the Garrison Officers’ Mess. Most also take the opportunity to join the Shell Panaga Club, which is essentially a sports and leisure club. Sport has a very high profile in Brunei and there are numerous sports offered at Panaga including golf, football, squash, rugby, diving, sailing, tennis, bowling, weight lifting and swimming. There is also a thriving amateur dramatics society and other non-sport groups such as bridge, photography, natural history and quilting. The location of Brunei provides wonderful opportunities for exploring the jungles of North Borneo and exotic destinations within South East Asia, as well as being a gateway to Australia and beyond. Miri, the nearest Malaysian town, is located one hour’s drive away in Sarawak. Local Laws and Customs Brunei has had some very bad press of late – which is a pity. Whilst the country is an Islamic country, ruled by His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei, there are many citizens of a wide range of cultures and customs all of which are supported by the Brunei Government. His Majesty the Sultan and other members of the Bruneian Royal Family are highly revered and public criticism of them would cause great offence. Local laws reflect the fact that Brunei is an Islamic country. You must dress modestly and respect local traditions, customs, laws and religions at all times, especially during the holy month of Ramadan, or if you intend to visit religious areas. Ramadan is a holy month for Muslims. During this time, observant Muslims not only abstain from food, drinking and smoking from dawn to dusk, but in general practice restrain from all activities or behaviour that are not compatible with Islamic values. Muslims use this time of abstention for prayer, contemplation and charitable work. Much bad press is related around the Sharia Criminal Code which was introduced on 22 October 2013. It is shared here for understanding but the code only effects the local Muslim populaiton. Whilst applicants should recognise that the Sharia code will require them to respect local customs and comply with local laws, it does not prevent you from enjoying the experience of working in a different country and culture. For example, the sale of alcohol in Brunei is prohibited but Non-Muslims over 17 years of age may import duty free two bottles of wine or spirits and twelve cans of beer on entry into Brunei provided they declare them to the customs authorities on arrival and consume them in private. There must be at least a 48-hour gap between each import. Smoking is prohibited in most public places, including shopping and eating areas, bus stops and stations and government buildings and offenders may be fined. Alcohol and cigarettes may be purchased from the NAAFI but all MOD personnel are required to respect and comply with local laws and customs. The British Forces Brunei Garrison takes measures to ensure the sale and consumption of food is conducted with sensitivity to local religious customs during fasting. You may wish to look at the latest advice from the Foreign and Commowaelth Office on Gov.UK for further information. Further Information For more information on living and working in Brunei, there is lots of information on the internet. The following websites may be helpful: Hornbill School Website - http://www.hornbillschool.com/ Foreign & Commonwealth Advice - https://www.gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice/brunei Brunei Tourism - http://www.bruneitourism.travel/index.php http://www.lonelyplanet.com/brunei-darussalam http://www.worldtravelguide.net/brunei BBC country profile - http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-pacific-12990058 Brunei on Wikipedia - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brunei An Experience of a Lifetime Brunei is some 7,400 miles from the UK and therefore flights can take 12 hours from the UK. For some the prospect of being across the other side of the world experiencing a new culture is the adventure of a lifetime. Despite the obvious constraints of living in a Muslim state, if you are adaptable, have a sense of adventure and, if necessary, can manage without British television, this is a wonderful opportunity! Some, but not yet all, homes now have British Forces Broadcasting Service Television, 17 hours behind the UK. Strong friendships are formed and the Garrison support services recognise the challenges of being so far from home but our teachers and managers are resilient, resourceful and independent, confident of living in a Muslim state with a tropical climate. Life in Brunei is certainly pleasant and working with the Gurkha community is unique and extremely rewarding but it can also be more challenging than working in many other overseas areas. Many of our teachers came for a couple of years and have stayed for five to ten years. We hope you will embrace and enjoy life in Brunei and stay at Hornbill School for quite some time but when you feel the time is right to move on, then we hope you will consider working at one of our other MOD schools. Hornbill School and Treetops Nursery offer exciting continuous professional development opportunites (CPD) and personal development. We are able to deliver both internal and external high quality development opportunities to staff through our own programmes and through links with FOBISIA. Whilst with us you can be certain that you will have the opportunity to develop in line with UK and international best practice. Accommodation Teachers and Nursery Managers with families are provided with furnished Service Families Accommodation (SFA), which could be either a flat or a house. Service Families’ Accommodation (SFA) for all Brunei serving personnel and their dependants is located between 5km and 15kms from Tuker Lines and Medicina Lines. Single and married but unaccompanied teachers and managers are entitled to accommodation in the Officers’ Mess (in a single room with shared facilities), in same sex shared accommodation or in small self- contained units consisting of a living-room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom, depending on availability. The Mess is located approx. 6km from Tuker Lines and Medicina Lines close to Mumong estate and Treetops. It is located on the beach front and the garden is fringed by palms. There is a tennis court, basketball court and a table for outdoor informal dining. A large patio is used for Mess functions. Where Mess accommodation is unavailable same sex shared accommodation may be offered. As accommodation provided may be some distance from the place of work and public transport is limited, it is essential that applicants have access to their own daily transport. Working and living in such a small community demands emotional resilience at an individual level as well as having the ability to form and maintain appropriate relationships and personal boundaries at all levels.

Regulating Water and War in Iraq: A Dangerous Dark Side of New Governance TRACEY LEIGH DOWDESWELL & PATRICIA HANIA* ABSTRACT In the legal scholarship, the 'new governance' mode of governance advances an administrative arrangement where decision-making is shared amongst a range of actors, both public and private. The flexible, responsive, and collaborative governance orientation is intended to counter the ill effects of a coercive, top-down, state-centric, command- and-control approach to governance. Critics contend the new governance framework can displace the interests of local communities, disempower individuals, and dislodge basic human rights. The U.S. military has adopted such an adaptive approach in its own governance structure, which in this article is referred to as: the new governance "mentality." This mentality of governance was employed in the U.S.'s post-conflict reconstruction efforts in Iraq-efforts that were plagued by waste, inefficiency, and corruption.

  • Symbiosis Between Water and Architecture: Towards Hydro Based Urbanism in Keraniganj, Dhaka
    Symbiosis Between Water and Architecture: Towards Hydro Based Urbanism in Keraniganj, Dhaka labib hossain1 Bangladesh University of Engineering & Technology [email protected] Abstract: Bangladesh is located in the world’s largest delta where the relationship with water is totally different from rest of the world. The satellite image of Dhaka city shows the presence of water bodies that girdle the city in east and west periphery. At present Dhaka, the capital of Bangladesh is growing with mind-numbing speed, filling up these lowlands for the extra population, as all the highlands are increasingly being built or covered. These wetlands which generally acted as flood basin for Dhaka is now unable to ful- fill its purpose and thus increasing flood magnitude and its elongation period. This approach to land devel- opment is affecting the resilience of the city. This disturbance on environment can be termed as ‘ecological disaster’ making the situation worse for the people of Dhaka city. The analysis on pre-urban and post-urban context will express how the situation gets worse for unwise and unplanned decision-making and for not respecting the hydrology and its functions. The important observation is, the strategy of ‘flood-free land’ should be transformed to ‘flood-free building’ in the new innovative housing model in this context, which can relate to our society and culture and for reviving the relation with water which was very much promi- nent in the past. This way there will be more space for water during monsoon and flood. The study first asks the question of how can the diverse ecology and unique natural dynamics of Delta environment be restored and integrated with new and existing urban residential development in and around Dhaka city and aims to come up with a model of the new housing typology where human and other species and the natural functions of wetland can coexist.

SERCOMBE Ethno-Linguistic Change among the Penan of Brunei Some Initial Observations* Introduction Negara Brunei Darussalam (henceforth Brunei) is a small multi-ethnic, multilingual country. The official language is Brunei Malay, and three other dialects of Malay are spoken as well as seven non-Malay isolects (Nothofer 1991:151); among this latter group Iban, Mukah and Penan are considered immigrant to Brunei. The Penan language spoken in Brunei is of the eastern variety1, used by those Penan who occur to the east of the Baram River in Sarawak and within the Kenyah subgroup (Blust 1972:13). Aim This paper aims to examine some non-Penan lexical and discourse features that have been noted in current language use in the Penan language of Brunei (henceforth Sukang Penan), and to compare these with a similar situation in Long Buang Penan in neighbouring Sarawak.2 The main concern here is to show the discrepancy between the position of discrete lexical items and the use of lexis in spontaneous discourse in Sukang. To my knowledge (and Langub's, personal communication) there presently exist no in-depth studies relating to the Penan language varieties of Borneo. To date there have been a number of wordlists published, most * I wish to thank Kelly Donovan for producing the maps and both Peter Martin and Rodney Needham for their valuable comments on earlier drafts of this article.
