I think from all the picture taken lately, she has tone down her makeup. She looks more prettier than ever before. I really admire this lady. With what she has gone through, she will always show a happy face to her subject. :)

Queen Seleha's Father actually is the origin the King of Brunei. Unforturnaly the king don't have any son to continues his throne. When he passed away the brother by law to continues the King of Brunei who is the father of the Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah. Queen Seleha was arranged marry to the first Son of the Sultan and Seleha's sister who arranged marry to Sultan's brother , Prince Qawi's father (i forgot his name).That why their blood very close to each other....so those royal kids born to be not really active at all. But they are very kind to their people. What should i said, actually the country of Brunei is belong to Queen Saleha's family. I ever meat and shake her hand during their Hari Raya in Istana, she totally nice and will talk to you and ask you,where u from with her kindness and warm smile.

Jello, sorry, but your info is completely untrue! Saleha's father was never the Brunei Sultan. And Saleha did have a brother. Where do you get your information from??

Yes I agree with Zina. I guess Jello was referring to Sultan Jamalul Alam (27th sultan) who didn't have any son (and he was NOT Queen Saleha's father). When he died, his brother became the Sultan, i.e. Sultan Omarali Saifuddien (28th Sultan) who is the current Sultan's late father.

The Sultan and the Queen are related though. They are first cousins. The Sultan's mother and the Queen's father were siblings.

On link posted above is said that Queen Saleha has three brothers and five younger sisters, so Jello it seams that you were quite wrong.

Anyway, Queen Saleha's younger sister Zaria is married to Sultan's Hassanal younger brother Muhammad, right?

Saleha and Zariah are sisters. Saleha married the Sultan and Zariah married Mohammad, the Sultan's oldest brother. Both are daughters of a former Pengiran Pemancha.

Default B'day bash for Q Saleha

I was just wondering, if anybody knows, whether Saleha will also have a big celebration for her 60th b'day seeing that the sultan had a festival for himself, on the 7th of October 2006?

I agree...!!! She's a lovely mother for her kids and wonderful grand-mother for her grand-son and grand-daughter. I totally admire her. She showed us her power and strengthness through such a difficult time of her life. I wish her a very nice and happy life from now on.

Only the Sultan has the huge month-long birthday festivities. Queen Saleha usually attends various receptions where she's invited to cut birthday cakes. The same thing usually happens for the Crown Prince's birthday.
However I dont know if there's something special planned for the Queen's 60th birthday.
