INTRODUCTION

With the gaining of independence in 1984, the telecommunications development in Brunei Darussalam underwent a revolutionary change in terms of the application of state-of-the-art technology, the provision of a wider range of telecommunication services as well as the availability of the services to the general public. For instance, the telephone density which was only 9 telephone lines per 100 persons in 1984 increased to 26 telephone lines per 100 in 1996. Meanwhile, Brunei Darussalam was one of the first few in the region who achieved 100% digital telecommunication network. Today, the telecommunication network in Brunei Darussalam is comparable with the networks in some of the most advanced countries.

Despite this excellent achievement, JTB still has plenty of room for further improvement particularly in realizing that the telecommunications sector plays a critical roll in supporting the national vision of becoming a "service Hub for Trade and Tourism by the year 2003 (ShuTT)". In this context, JTB has set its own vision to become a world-class telecommunication services provider by the year 2000. The seventh 5-year National Development Plan were a substantial amount in the budget has been allocated for telecommunications development will provide the platform to achieve the vision we have set. In addition, as a first step towards realizing this vision, JTB has introduced a Customer Carter whereby JTB promise some performance characteristics in delivering services to its customers. This Customer Charter is an initial pledge to build bad strengthen customers' confidence and loyalty as well as satisfy their expectations. As JTB improves and cutters' expectation rises, it will be reviewed and amended accordingly by raising the minimum performance characteristics promised.
