Aevamo’s reading
Section 6(1) of the Immigration Act (Cap 17) creates the obligation: no person other than a citizen may enter Brunei unless holding an Entry Permit, pass, Residence Permit or an exemption made under section 54. The MFA visa-category pages describe the scope of the exemptions granted to that obligation; they do not create it.
This is the MFA category page for the C1 visa-on-arrival arrangement: it states holders of passports under this category may apply for a visa on arrival valid for 30 days. The MFA Visa-Information page indexes Australia and Kuwait under this C1 category.

What this answer covers Limits & assumptions
Work and residence rights are separate from this check. This is the entry rule and the length of stay the instrument grants. It is not a decision about you: the officer at the border decides admission, and we do not evaluate the purpose of your trip, your passport's remaining validity, an onward ticket, funds, insurance or health requirements.
