I know this is not the right thread, but I think Pg Bini Faezah has never failed to impress me with her elegance. She knows how to dress!

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

I think his name was Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin. He was married to a Malaysian princess from Selangor. And they only have a daughter. You can see her at most of the function in Brunei and her name is Princess Nor Ehsani. She is married to a Malaysian royalty and they have 3 sons.

Tap the gains of globalisation

Harnessing the opportunities that come with globalisation is quite important, observed Her Majesty Raja Isteri Pg Anak Hjh Saleha in a titah yesterday.
Addressing the 12th Asean Confederation of Women's Organisations (ACWO) General Assembly 2006, Her Majesty said: "We often look at globalisation solely in terms of its challenges to our economies, our societies, our individual cultural identities and ways of life. Addressing these challenges is, of course, vital to ensure that we can manage their impact on our societies. However, I believe that we should also pay equal attention to harnessing the opportunities that come hand-in-hand with these challenges."
