Katok 'B', also known as Mata-Mata Landless Indigenous Citizens' Housing Scheme (Malay : Skim Tanah Kurnia Rakyat Jati Mata-Mata) or the abbreviated Malay name STKRJ Mata-Mata, is a public housing estate on the outskirts of Bandar Seri Begawan in Brunei-Muara District, Brunei. It is officially designated as three villages, the third- and lowest-level subdivisions of Brunei. Katok 'B' is one of the estates in the country under the Landless Indigenous Citizens' Housing Scheme (Malay : Skim Tanah Kurnia Rakyat Jati), a public housing programme.^[1]

Name

The full Malay name for Katok 'B' is Skim Tanah Kurnia Rakyat Jati Kampung Mata-Mata, whereby "Skim Tanah Kurnia Rakyat Jati" (commonly abbreviated as STKRJ) is often translated as "Landless Indigenous Citizens' Housing Scheme".^[1] The estate is named after the original villages of Katok and Mata-Mata.

"Katok 'B'" was initially the name for the first phase of the STKRJ housing estate developed in the area, in which it was then part of Katok. It is now known as Area 1 of STKRJ Mata-Mata, a village subdivision and separated from the latter.^[2] However, STKRJ Mata-Mata initially referred to the STKRJ estate in Mata-Mata; the latter usage is now uncommon ever since it is administered as part of the Perpindahan Mata-Mata village.^[2] "STKRJ Mata-Mata" now refers to the Katok 'B' housing estate instead.

Geography

Katok 'B' is located in the central part of Brunei-Muara District and in the western part on the outskirts of Bandar Seri Begawan, the capital of Brunei. It is contiguous with, and officially borders, Perpindahan Mata-Mata of the Mata-Mata settlement to the east.^[2] Although Katok 'B' is named after Katok, they are not contiguous but nevertheless located in their vicinity.

Administration

The area of Katok 'B' is divided into three villages (Malay : kampung or kampong), the third- and lowest-level administrative divisions of Brunei. They are consequently among the village subdivisions under Gadong 'B', a mukim (subdistrict) of Brunei-Muara.^[3] As a village, it thus has a village head (Malay : ketua kampung) as the leader of respective community.

Each village is also a designated postcode area and therefore has its own postcode.
