Royal Family of Brunei Current Events 1: July 2005-August 2006

[Cantik]

Whatever people say, I just feel sorry to Queen Saleha, we could see when she is only wife of the Sultan in some event they always smile and talk each other ! The Queen is tough person, God Bless you Mam.

[Apina]

I really admire Queen Saleha. She always put her best smile but only God knows what she feels inside.

[florecita]

Is the queen saleha sweet and warm person with princess sarah too?are there pictures of both together?talking or something?
should be difficult for queen saliha be seated or talk with the other wife of her husband :(

Sorry for my poor english :o

[Qamarina]

Queen Saleha is always all smiles, but one will never know what's going on in her mind. Although she wears heavy makeup compared to other brunei royals, I bet without the makeup, she got that natural beauty and sweetness.

Jello, how come the most rich man in the world wants to married a widow, particullary the kings or princes in asian countries even they are "land smell" or "almost die" they still looking for virgin bride !!!
Look at the Sultan Brunei some of his daughters are more older than his bride. I feel sorry to princesses Mutawakila, princesses Majidah and the youngest princesses from Queen Saleha if I'm mistaken she is same age with his new bride. Did you remember to the previous Malaysian king, when his married to the youngest wife, he was 66 and his bridge was 19 and when he dead he was 77 or 78 and his wife still 29 years old. (If you have money you can buy anything.

Yes Apina I agreed with you nobody knows of Queen Saleha feels inside but She always smile and look "OK" with Her daughter inlaw ( princess Sarah) even with ex-sultan wife (hajah Marima when she still his wife) the Queen always smile with her and talked each other, I hope Allah always Bless him. Can you imagine the different ages between Q. Saleha with Azrinas, as a woman we could feel it !

hrm.. i guess this is all fate huh.. sometimes they are ridiculous.. wanting to get married to a younger woman.. but hey.. in Islam it is good to erm..how you say it.. "be good to your husband's wife"...

[gal83]

:) for the malaysian king.. for info.. surprisingly she never married again.. not yet i guess.. but she seems to be loyal to him.. although he's gone..

[jello]

why rich people wanna married young lady?...ha ha..cos they already rich, they are looking young inside of them. For the Sultan of Brunei as i know the 2nd wife is a journalist which can always has chance to get close to VIP,and her mouth very sweet talking that y the Sultan of Brunei feel good when with her although she ever married before. For the crown prince ,Sarah only under 20, before the crown prince get marry, they do ask the parent permission whether she agreed or not to marry the Prince. Sarah chose to marry Crown Prince. In Brunei has a chance to meet the Prince is very hard, if u have chance better never let go this chance, they won't think far they will very appreciate this chance and never said no. Sarah's story just like a fairy tale but not sure in future, because,it is so beautiful story and she is so sweet and look pretty,and her family in brunei will be full of power after she married even her cousin and etc. She is the first wife and will be the future queen in brunei and is not allow to divorce if anything happen...i said if.

A lot of girls don't envy Sarah. Her freedom is gone, and she's tied down to duty now, obliged to produce an heir, missing out on fun with her friends and a whole lot more. Her life must be boring, married to a prince who's much older whom she has nothing in common with. Leading separate lives behind guilded walls. She seems to spend most time with her mother, not her husband. Despite all her wealth, when can she ever take a holiday except on official overseas visits? I can imagine her life is pretty dull.

she should know it before she choose the Prince to marry. This is the life of the Royal family. That why her mom asked her to think twice.

Some pictures from a few days ago...I think they're the last pics of Azrinaz before she gave birth to her son.

Hi, I'm new here..actually frm Brunei myself and very intrigued abt Princess Sarah ever since I heard abt the engagement. From my point of view, I think she's more into it for the privileges. I dont think I would wanna be in her shoes, unless it was based purely on true love (dating from the start). However, I believe that she still keeps in contact with her friends..I've seen her driving around, with her friends in the car and I think that was a trip to her parent's house.

It is better for her to keep some kind of normalcy in her own life. Drive around, keep her own group of friends and so on. It will keep her sane.

Well with her position and status now i really hope Sarah can do something worthwhile , meaningful , making a difference to people of lesser means and the have nots. Something like the role the late princess diana played would be wonderful: bringing cheer to people and world around. :p

[gal83]

but then i feel that the other members of the royal family are not that exposed to media,etc.. seldom do u find stories on them..
