A YEAR OF EVERYDAY
UPGRADES — RETAIL
HIGHLIGHTS ACROSS THE
COUNTRY
For many, January and February become
months of small upgrades — reorganising
the home, refreshing the wardrobe or
picking up a new hobby. With 26 TGL
retail
partners, Standard Chartered helps stretch
your budget while exploring the Sultanate’s
diverse retail scene.
Looking to elevate your living space? Stores
like Home Suite Home, Thomson Furniture
and Sengkurong Furniture offer ways to
refresh interiors for the year ahead.
If it’s fashion you’re after, Charles & Keith,
Anna Noor and Bokitta Enterprise have
become go-to names for everyday essentials
and modest wear.
Tech enthusiasts can start the year with
offers fromAman Power Store, Intracorp and
AV Electronic, while motorists benefit from
perks at KMO Trading and Seng Hoe Huat.
For something meaningful or celebratory,
jewellery partners such as JL Jewellery, Royal
Insignia, Twinkles Jewellery and Chong Eng
Han Dealer Watch provide options for new-
year gifting or personal milestones.
It’s retail made simpler — and a little more
rewarding.

Exploring Brunei with Standard Chartered’s The Good Life® Programme
A FRESH START, CLOSE TO HOME
4 STAYCATION CHOICES ACROSS BRUNEI (PLUS AN ADVENTURE OPTION)
The appeal of a local escape never fades, especially at the start of a new year when many
are easing back into routine. Standard Chartered cardholders can enjoy exclusive perks at
four TGL
accommodation partners, each offering a unique way to reset — along with one
adventure-focused partner for those seeking new experiences in 2026:
A
new year often brings a quiet promise — to slow down, try new things, or
simply make more intentional choices about how we spend our time. For
many in Brunei, it also marks a season of rediscovery: revisiting favourite
cafes, planning a fresh routine or carving out small weekend escapes.
Standard Chartered Cards offer a simple way to elevate those everyday moments
through
The Good Life® Programme (TGL).
With exclusive perks at more than 70 Brunei-based TGL partners, the card offers
a lifestyle-friendly platform that includes staycations, dining, retail, beauty, fitness
and family activities.
From short retreats to daily comforts, Standard Chartered helps cardholders enjoy
the best of Brunei in 2026-with added value along the way!

well-loved diving centre for those looking
to add exploration and ocean activities to
their 2026 plans.
Whether you’re catching up on rest or
planning a short recharge between work
weeks, these staycation choices — and
the option for a bit of ocean adventure —
offer simple ways to begin the year feeling
refreshed.
