Rumours circulated in the social media on Saturday that Bruneians would require visas to enter the United States from January 1, 2017, after the US State Department announced the end of a Visa Waiver Programme for Brunei passport holders. The reports speculated that the changes in Brunei’s economy might have been the cause of the removal, as the countries included in the programme are all productive economies with a very high Human Development Index.
