In Brunei Darussalam, it is nascent industry with growth potential if properly nurtured and developed in a conducive environment. Art is inclusive, as it transcends all ages, gender, cultures, ethnicity, abilities and can bring great potential and socio-economic benefits with positive spillover effects, including entrepreneurial opportunities.
