BACKGROUND Brunei Darussalam or Brunei is located in Southeast Asia on the northern coast of Borneo. The country occupies a total area of about 5,770 km 2 . Brunei has about 380 km of land border and 160 km of coastline. The country is divided into two parts by the Malaysian territory of Limbang in Sarawak state. Brunei is close to vital sea-lanes through South China Sea linking Indian and Pacific Oceans. Brunei has a population close to 374,000, the smallest in ASEAN and growing at a rate of 1.81% per annum. The country is administratively divided into four districts, Brunei-Muara, Kuala Belait, Temburong and Tutong. These districts are further divided into subdistricts. The largest city is the capital, Bandar Seri Begawan with a population of about 200,000. The economy is dominated by oil and natural gas and the wealth arising from the oil industry gives Brunei a high per capita Gross Domestic Product of USD 9,557 billion. The Government of Brunei Darussalam is fully committed to sustainable environmental development. A National Environment Strategy was incorporated in both the Seventh and Eighth National Development Plans. Even though there is no Environmental Impact Assessment Regulation yet, Brunei Government requires EIA in the planning for large and heavy industries in the country. In accordance with these development plans, the country is gearing towards Integrated Solid Waste Management. Policies and Legislations on the improvement of the solid waste system have been adopted as administered by the Ministry of Development which allocated BRD 1 billion for the implementation of such projects in the Eighth National Development plan. 3.3 Brunei PRIORITY AREAS Along with air pollution brought about by forest fires, solid and hazardous wastes brought about by urbanization and industrialization, have been identified as one of the main priorities in the Seventh and Eighth National Development Plans of the Government of Brunei. A study conducted by Department of Environment, Parks and Recreation (JASTRE) in 2005 indicates that solid waste generation in the country has reached up to 189,000 tons per year. Presently, an Integrated Solid Waste Management System is being worked out to replace the current setup in the country. The Integrated Solid Waste Management Plan eventually replace the existing landfills and look into the sources of waste generation, collection, transfer, proper disposal, public awareness and strengthening of the institutional framework. The agencies responsible for the implementation of the projects are the Department of Environment, Parks and Recreation and the Public Works Department under the Ministry of Development and the Ministry of Health.
