Kampong Sungai Lampai is a village in Brunei-Muara District, Brunei.

[3] During the Castilian War, Bendahara Sakam utilised Sungai Lampai and Kampong Pintu Malim as strongholds to repel Spanish incursions.

[6] The first British resident, Malcolm McArthur, moved Brunei's administrative centre from Kampong Ayer to Sungai Lampai when the British Resident system was put into place in 1906 for political, economic, social, and health reasons.

The first administrative buildings, including as the police station, jails, and the customs and excise division, were located at Sungai Lampai.

The creation of contemporary Brunei Town, present day Bandar Seri Begawan, began when a 1.5-mile (2.4 km) road was built along the Brunei riverfront to connect Sungai Lampai to the future town.
