Brunei

Unreached people groups

An overview of the country's people groups, focusing on those who still have little or no access to the gospel in their own language and culture.

Overview

Brunei is home to Malay, Chinese and Indian peoples and indigenous groups of Borneo, such as the Iban, Dusun, Murut and Bisaya. Several of these peoples remain without a clear witness of the gospel, and local languages still lack a Bible translation. The Muslim majority and legal restrictions make reaching the people with the good news a challenge that can only be overcome through prayer and dependence on God.
