The village also encompasses the public housing area STKRJ Kampong Telisai.

[5] In the olden days, in the coastal area close to Pokok Telisai, this was a concentration of residents from Tutong or Seria, Belait and also some from the city to be used as a resting place or a temporary stop before continuing their journey to their respective destinations.

Due to the journey taking quite a long time, up to 3 to 4 days, it even took up to a week to travel along the coast when the water was low and through the alleys in the forest.

[6][7] As of 2014, the population consists of various ethnic groups with the status of a plural society consisting of the Dusun, Tutong, Kedayan, Brunei and other tribes that came from other districts and then moved and resided after the construction of the Skim Perumahan Perpindahan Rakyat Jati (SPPRJ) Kampong Telisai.

The majority of the population are Muslims who are inherited from generation to generation and a small part of them are those who have embraced Islam and there are only a few family groups left who have not yet embraced Islam, especially those who have moved from other villages to resident in this village.

[5] The economic resources of the local residents depended only on farming or planting rice, searching for materials from the forest, hunting, fishing and so on.
