History

The official relations between the two countries were established in 1984.[2][1] In 2012, His Majesty the Sultan of Brunei Hassanal Bolkiah attended the 3rd Singapore Airshow and met the current Prime Minister Lee Hsien Loong and the former Prime Minister Lee Kuan Yew, while Teo Chee Hean visited Brunei the same year.[1]

Economic and monetary relations

Several memorandum of understanding have been signed and there is a Currency Interchangeability Agreement between the two countries which makes both Brunei dollar and Singapore dollar banknotes and coins legal tender in either country.[1][4]

Security relations

The Singapore Armed Forces (SAF) has trained many Bruneian soldiers for a period of time.[3][5] As compensation, Brunei granted the Singapore Armed Forces to build a permanent jungle training camp in Temburong, named Lakiun Camp and officially opened in 1977.[6][7] Brunei and Singapore began Exercise Airguard in 1994, which involves joint training between the Royal Brunei Air Force and the Republic of Singapore Air Force, with the states alternating as hosts. The Republic of Singapore Navy also hosts exercises with Royal Brunei Navy every year named Exercise Pelican. [8] The exercises usually involve around 70 personnel from both nations.[8]
