The rise of the COVID-19 pandemic has spread to over 200 countries and territories. At this time of writing, COVID-19 cases around the world continue to either grow increasingly or is slowing down. Some countries are seeing an emergence of a second wave of COVID-19 after an initial significant improvement. This paper has produced a complete contact tracing record of all cases in Brunei. Despite the size of Bruneis population, Brunei saw a large number of initial COVID-19 cases across the country. Through the Brunei Governments efforts, it has seen significant success in managing the outbreak. This paper depicts how the first COVID-19 case and other inbound cases Brunei spread throughout the country and further details information on active cases, number of deaths, number of tests, critical cases, re-infected cases and the actions taken by the Brunei Government. At this time, Brunei has only 1 contained case left and is unlikely to see a reemergence of the COVID-19 virus.
