It is part of Kampong Ayer, the traditional stilt settlements on the Brunei River in the country's capital Bandar Seri Begawan.

[4] According to folk tale, Kampong Tamoi got its name from the event of defending the village from the fury of outsiders.

Because both were reliable when fighting, the water started to rise and reached his back and Liau Haris stabbed his dagger into the ground and the enemy collapsed.

[5] However, in the research carried out by the Brunei History Centre, it was recorded that Kampong Tamoi originated from the leadership of a person named Haji Tarif.

Fortified with calico cloth and praying to Allah, the attack was repelled and the villagers succeeded in expelling the intruders.

In addition to having existing facilities such as a mosque for the residents here attend schools, water supply and electricity.

It was previously named Kampung Penganan Kingkin because in this village there is a family whose job is only to make kuih cincin.

In recent years, this village has become a highlight for tourists and foreign dignitaries to visit here to see up close the traditions and life in Kampong Ayer.

According to information passed down by generations, the origin of the village was the residence of the children of Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddin I along with his followers and men.

The mosque (with thatched roof and brick walls) has been destroyed for a long time but the remnants of the remains of the building can still be seen to this day and it is located near Bakut Syeikh Haji Ibrahim.

On the bakut there used to be many fragments of old ceramics, pieces of pitis, kuit, old coins as well as former large pillars which are believed to be the former site of Istana Pengiran Bendahara Lama.

Since both large and small boats that traverse the path to the inner Gadong River are eroding the stone walls and slopes of the area of the palace, the historic site is no longer discernible and may eventually vanish.

The origin of Kampong Ujong Bukit started from the occupation of its residents who at that time worked as forger of copper items.

The village had several names before becoming Kampung Ujong Bukit, such as Pulau Pandaian and Pandai Kawat, the latter meant good at making copper items.

Difficulties are encountered when the water is shallow, which is why the craftsman's place had to move from Pandaian Island to Ujong Bukit.

The unity of the spirit of the participants and the rowing techniques and the boats produced make the people of Kampung Tamoi always excel in the competition.

[5] In generating a self-sustaining economy, some people in this village are very active in trading food such as cakes, cooking, and also catching fish on a small scale.

The villagers are also active in the field of sports such as organizing a nine-player football team and managed to get saved financial results as much as BND$500 in 2012.
