Background

In 2015, after a government cabinet reshuffle in Brunei, I saw lists being shared of the new line-up, but I was also interested in seeing a timeline of names who had held those positions. Generally it can be hard to find up-to-date information about Brunei, and seeing that the usual sources for this information were not being updated, I thought of building my own comprehensive list of Brunei senior officials.

​

It started out as a spreadsheet in Google Drive, but as the spreadsheet grew, it became harder to navigate. I slowly moved everything over to Airtable, so here we are. :)

​

Enjoy!
