I really enjoyed reading Jack's post on Brunei businesses going bust. Absolutely agree that its not all gloom and doom and its just a matter of time before the economy starts pumping again with all those projects slated for the 9th RKN.
My only concern is this, what do we do before then? Aside from jostling for position with arms (and mouths) wide-open, ready for the giant JPKE to award those "mega-projects"?
Anyway, thats boring stuff. I was more excited by the suggestion that Brunei become a retirement village for the rich (and famous?). I like that idea, and I think it can work! Not only as retirement village but also as a residential base for executives from multi-national companies, it would be ideal. With all ASEAN capitals within a short flying distance, these executives could telecommute daily and fly to and from meetings as and when.
In return, they would get a safe, tax-free, and clean environment to bring up their families.
Sweet...

Wow, where'd you get it?
ReplyDeleteGot the Ushanka (I think thats what its called) hats, a pair of em, while on a working trip to Moscow some years ago.
ReplyDeleteThey'd been sitting in one of our storage boxes for some time and were discovered when we moved into our new house a few months ago :)
Interestingly, the other item I got in Moscow was a set of Pokemon (seriously) babushka dolls heheheh.
