Abstract: Let $Bo(T,au)$ be the Borel $sigma$-algebra generated by the topology $au$ on $T$. In this paper we show that if $K$ is a Hausdorff compact space, then every subset of $K$ is a Borel set if, and only if, ${\displaystyle }$Bo(C^*(K),w^*)=Bo(C^*(K),|cdot|);${\displaystyle }$ where $w^{\ast }$ denotes the weak-star topology and $|cdot|$ is the dual norm with respect to the sup-norm on the space of real-valued continuous functions $C(K)$. Furthermore we study the topological properties of the Hausdorff compact spaces $K$ such that every subset is a Borel set. In particular we show that, if the axiom of choice holds true, then $K$ is scattered.
