I see he's got a an ML63 AMG!

I've got to say this guy has gone way over the top on cars, while there are people in his country starving to death, he's buying any car he can get his hands on. I really don't see the point of him having the same car, but in loads of different colours!

Well I don't know for a fact, but I'm pretty sure that's the case, like in Dubai where we only hear about the rich people on here, but there are some very poor people made to work day and night!

Yeah, the chances of Brunei having undiscovered oil at that time is possible.

Really, you saw a photo of him? I didn't get to see such a photo - just some cartoon drawn in my history books.

Actually, the Brunei government actually provides their citizens the basic needs that they require, and they are pretty generous with grants, incentives and what not. It's not as bad as you think - although the wealth is concentrated into a small group of privileged people, they do distribute some of it -adequately, I might add - to the rest of the country. The people (well some of them, anyway) are living on welfare if they can't find work.

Not really. It's in the middle of being a MEDC and a non MEDC country. Thr are ranked 26th when it comes to GDP. Like I mentioned earlier in the thread health care and education is free. Off course the money cashed in from oil could be distributed better but it ain't a third world country.

Yes. Singapore was one of Britain's many island colonies, only thing is that we got our independence much earlier, at 1965 I think.

I'll post the cartoon once I find where my history book is...
