Malcolm Stewart Hannibal McArthur (10 March 1872 – 20 February 1934)^[1] was the first British resident of Brunei.^[2] He played a key role in the talks that resulted in the signing of the 1905 and 1906 Agreement between Great Britain and Brunei as well as the implementation of the Residential system. The accomplishments he is most known for were his establishment of a tax system and a Western-style government in Brunei. He also started making arrangements to persuade the people of Kampong Ayer to relocate to homes on land,^[3] setting the groundwork for Brunei Town.^[4]

Despite challenges in navigating Malay customs and traditions, McArthur's efforts, combined with the proactiveness of Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III, led to significant improvements and prevented further annexations of Brunei's lands.^[5]
