I didnt see the tv footage so Im not sure if they kissed Azrinaz's hand or not. Maybe its because she doesnt have a royal title?
The articles refer to her as YAM. What does that stand for?

On the Infofoto site there is a pic of subject kissing Azrinaz hand. It is in the album Junjung Ziarah Hari Pertama, dated 11/05/05 by Abdullah_003. Perhaps it was overlooked when viewing the album.

yes I thought I saw someone bending over her hand.
Most of those pictures look the same and since we're supposed to be conserving bandwidth I didnt post all of them.
In the last set of picture Azrinaz looks almost dishevelled, not as "put together" as she was in the previous pictures.

She's since been given the title YTM - Yang Teramat Mulia - a common royal title, but not a very important one.

BOLK: It's true that most people did not kiss her hand and some even walked past without acknowledging her. It reflects the public majority's opinion of her.

thanx Zina. I dont know what to call her, she's not a princess and since I dont speak Malay I find the other bruneian titles confusing. Is YTM similar to the title Prince Sufri's wife has? Faezah is called a "Datin" if I recall correctly and someone said that it roughly translates to "lady",

btw..is it really true about people walking past Azrinaz? would people actually be that rude when they're inside the royal palace?

She is a princess literally, since she is now married to the Sultan. Its just that there is stilla procedur to take to legally announce her as a princess.

No i dont think that people would be that rude... :)

agreed. At least she doesnt look like a christmeas tree. other ladies tend to wear flowery headscarf with lots of designs for clothes as well....

Azrinaz looks very tired from these photos. actually there is a nice photo of her during ASEAn but I don't have it. Anybody has them? Apparenty shewas the focus of attention during the summit.

I agree. She looks tired and I think definately better with makeup. Without makeup she looks quite ordinary.

These are the pictures from the ASEAN summit gala. From infofoto:

She is about 3 or 4 months pregnant now. She has been keeping out of the spotlight.

I wonder if this means she'll get the Princess title after the baby's birth.
