在全球疫情蔓延的背景下，文莱的疫情防控形势相对稳定，是东南亚地区疫苗接种率最高的国家之一。2021年，东南亚国家经济普遍呈现复苏态势，文莱经济增速却由正转负，其主要原因是过度依赖油气行业，以及疫情对其他行业和中小企业带来较大冲击。疫情期间，文莱积极调整国家经济发展战略，推出了《国家经济发展蓝图》《数字经济总体规划2025》等中长期发展规划，大力推进经济多元化发展，促进产业数字化转型，调节能源结构与政策。2022年，文莱经济复苏的前景尚不明朗，仍存在一些不确定性，如文莱全面放宽疫情防控将助力国内经济复苏，但将加大疫情防控难度；油价上涨有利于增加出口收入，但粮食价格上升将加剧输入型通货膨胀效应等。
In the context of the global epidemic，Brunei enjoys relatively stable epidemic prevention and control situation and has one of the highest vaccination rates in Southeast Asia. In 2021，while Southeast Asian countries are generally recovering，Brunei’s economic growth rate turned from positive to negative，mainly due to its over-dependence on the oil and gas industry，as well as the impact of the epidemic on other industries and SMES. During the pandemic，Brunei has actively adjusted its national economic development strategy，launched mid-and long-term development plans such as the National Economic Development Blueprint and Digital Economy Master Plan 2025，promoted economic diversification，accelacated industrial digital transformation，and adjusted its energy structure and policies. In 2022，The prospect of Brunei’s economic recovery is still unclear are still some uncertainties. For example，the relaxation of epidemic prevention and control in Brunei will help domestic economic recovery，but will make epidemic prevention and control more difficult. Rising oil prices will increase export income，but rising food prices will increase the risk of imported inflation.
