Malay Technology Museum

The Malay Technology Museum near the capital of Brunei documents the traditional crafts, tools, and building techniques of the peoples of Borneo. Its galleries recreate the stilt houses of the river-dwelling water village, showing methods of construction, fishing, boat-building, and metalwork used before the era of oil wealth. Displays of handicrafts and domestic objects illustrate everyday life across the sultanate's communities. Sitting beside the Brunei River, it tells the story of the country's material culture.
