MIRI: The area on both sides of the Malaysia-Brunei border is set to become one of the most vibrant social and economic development hubs in Borneo, with billions of ringgit worth of infrastructure projects being planned. 

The latest Brunei development blueprint states that the sultanate wants to implement infrastructure and power-generation projects worth over US$3bil (RM11.4bil) in the Sungai Liang industrial zone near Lumut, which is only half an hour from the Malaysian border near here.
