BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Xinhua): Brunei has announced that starting from Thursday, all foreign visitors arriving in Brunei must bear the cost of Covid-19 testings, which is at 1,000 Brunei dollars (US$700) per person.

According to Brunei's Ministry of Health on Thursday , the Brunei government will no longer bear the cost of Covid-19 testing for incoming foreign passengers and the costs of the 14-day isolation at designated government facilities will also be borne by foreigners entering Brunei, as announced earlier this month.

Brunei reported no new cases of Covid-19 on Thursday, marking the sixth day in a row without new cases since last Friday, when the first round of zero new cases reporting for five consecutive days was broken by one new positive patient. Yu Hong, the Chinese Ambassador to Brunei, transferred the medical supplies donated by Guangxi to Brunei's Minister at the Prime Minister's Office and Second Minister of Finance and Economy Mohd Amin Liew Abdullah.
