Geography Brunei Darussalam is situated in the northwestern coast of the island of Borneo and covers a land area of 5,765 km. Located 440 kms north of the equator, its only direct neighbour is the eastern Malaysian state of Sarawak which also divides the country into two parts. The districts of Brunei-Muara, Tutong and Belait which form the larger western portion are dominated by hilly lowlands, swampy plains and alluvial valleys. Mountainous terrain abound in the eastern district of Temburong which has a land area of 1,288 sq km. Main Rivers There are 4 main river systems that irrigate the 4 districts, namely: Temburong, Belait, Tutong and Brunei. Temburong, the smallest of the rivers, drains nearly the whole district. The Belait basin is the largest with an area of 2,700 sq km. The lower catchment comprises an extensive area of peat swamp forest. The river narrows at the town of Kuala Belait and a sand bar restricts the discharge of water to the South China Sea. While some areas in the upper catchment have been cleared for agriculture, this area is mostly jungle and sparsely populated. The Tutong basin, which is about 1,300 sq km, has a complex estuary system formed between two sand spits. Subject to fairly high tidal influence, its lower catchment is broadly flood plain. The upper catchment is jungle and patches of agriculture. A high proportion of urban development borders on the Brunei river.
