Brunei Darussalam today enjoys one of the most advanced standards of living in Asia. Its per capita
income is one of the highest in Asia, the standards of education and health are among the best in the developing world and it has already achieved almost all of the targets outlined in the Millennium Development Goals. This has largely been the result of political stability created by the Government of His Majesty, investment of its oil and gas revenues in the development of its infrastructure and far-reaching programs on social welfare.
