Brunei's political party
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
National Development Party (Malay: Parti Pembangunan Bangsa, ڤرتي ڤمباڠونن بڠسا; abbrev: NDP) is a political party in Brunei.[3] Although legally registered as a political party, it has not been able to gain electoral representation as legislative elections have not been held in Brunei since 1962. The party formally legalised on 31 August 2005 by former rebel and Secretary General of the banned Brunei People's Party, Yassin Affandi, aka Haji Muhammad Yasin bin Abdul Rahman (died 2012),[4] co-founded the Party,[1] which is the third political party founded legally in Brunei to date.
