The Borneo Bulletin was first published in 1953 as a weekly community newspaper for expatriates working in the Belait District. The Borneo Bulletin is the main source of information on local, regional and foreign affairs, as well as business news. Detailed stock market reports of the Singapore, Kuala Lumpur and regional stock exchanges are carried for the benefit of Bruneian businessmen and investors. In addition to the more serious news, the newspaper carries sports, lifestyle and leisure pages. Not only does the newspaper deliver information accurately and objectively upholding ethical standards and important traditions, it also endeavors to be acutely inventive, creative and ever-responsive to current developments and changes.
