The Nation of Brunei is located on the island of Borneo in Southeast Asia, with a population around 400,000. Two-thirds of the population adheres to the religion of Islam, which is also the official religion of Brunei. The sale and public consumption of alcohol is banned, as Brunei is a Shira law country.
Brunei has a drug treatment and rehabilitation center for drug offenders, which is provided under the Prisons Department of Brunei, at a residential facility called Rumah Al-Islah. Elements of the rehab program include medical detox; physical exercise; sports and recreation; individual, group, and family counseling; vocational training; moral (religious) rehabilitation; civic (social) rehabilitation; and aftercare run by the Narcotics Control Bureau. Admission to Al-Islah can be court ordered as well as voluntary.
“Behind the 15-foot-high, barbed wire perimeter fences and under the watchful eyes of 24-hour security patrols lies not a prison as one would expect to define it but rather a community of people who are being treated for their drug addiction…. Brunei’s new drug rehabilitation centre [Al-Islah] operates on the concept of a “therapeutic community” (TC), where drug abusers are given daily doses of moral support to help them change their bad habits, with a participative, group-based approach.”
–News Brunei FM, A ‘therapeutic community’ at Al-Islah
We are not aware of any other rehab facility in the country, other than Al-Islah.
Residential Drug and Alcohol Rehab Asia
While Al-Islah is hopefully helping addicts in Brunei, of course, the kind of setting and program described would not appeal to some people, and simply wouldn’t be appropriate for some people. If you are living in Brunei, and have an addiction problem, Drug & Alcohol Rehab Asia can help. We have helped people from all over the world overcome abuse of, and addiction to, alcohol and drugs.
Our luxury accommodations and serene setting, coupled with our exceptional therapy program, will provide you with the best possible environment and life tools for working your recovery program—so you can stop drinking/drug use, and move beyond a life shaped and tormented by drug or alcohol addiction. Instead, you can live a clean and sober, healthier and happier life.
Drug & Alcohol Rehab Asia’s drug and alcohol treatment program is based on a non 12-step model. Our primary therapy modality is Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), a proven therapy for treating drug and alcohol addictions. In addition to CBT individual and group counseling, our program incorporates personal physical training, water workout in our beautiful pool, group education sessions, art therapy, stress management, meditation, relapse prevention, island excursions (as well as other social activities), detox (when needed), and aftercare planning. For more about our alcohol and drug treatment program, please see our Treatment Program page. We also offer an intervention service worldwide.
