Bandar Seri Begawan: A Masterplan for Brunei’s City by 2035

Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei Darussalam, has a powerful role to play when it comes to taking Brunei Darussalam beyond the next economic frontier. As a city, its role as an engine of economic growth should not be understated. When one considers that 80% of economic growth is generated by cities around the world, coupled with the growing global urbanisation rate that is set to reach over 70% by 2050, cities such as BSB should become a policy focus to unlock Brunei’s economic future and development. There are so many areas that the city can develop so that it can prepare to meet the challenges of the 21st century. Contained in this document is, therefore, a Masterplan that can help Brunei achieve economic success by 2035.
