I must admit that i don't know much about the Brunei Royal Family, apart from the fact that the Sultan used to be the richest man in the world!

But, I'm just wondering do the Brunei Princesses wear hedscarves at home and not when abroad, as in the last 2 posts you've poted, Humera? Is that common?

well...I think one of our bruneian members might be able to explain it better. But since they've been away for a while I'll try to.
From what I've gathered after asking similar questions, this requirement for royal women to cover is pretty recent. Even Queen Saleha didnt use to cover her hair a few years ago. Some have suggested that she might have started doing so after she went for the hajj.
Also, the new crown princess doesnt cover all the time, mostly at official duties at home and abroad. But at less formal events in Brunei she doesnt cover. Most women of the royal family do wear the hijab. Not all of them though (Datin Faizah, wife of the Sultan's brother Prince Sufri etc)
As for Princesses Azemah and Fadzillah, they spend most of their time in London with their mom anyway so they're only seen wearing the hijab at official events in Brunei.

great pics again jennyfer.
Azemah and Fadzillah seem like they're very close to each other and to their adopted siblings. I think its wonderful.
Its too bad they dont seem to have the same relationship with Queen Saleha's kids.

Yes! they are Hjh Mariam's daughters. They are enjoying the summer holidays at the beach, mostly jet-skiing and other water sport activities.

September 19, 2005 - Prince Azim and sister Fadzillah at the Versace Shop Re-Launch in London. From Newscom
The other two must be friends of theirs' or perhaps adopted siblings?

I would just like to ask something. So, how many children does the Sultan have with his 2nd wife?

I hope someone could give me links to their biographies also.

I actually, found out about the Brunei royal family through one of my best friends who is from Brunei. His family owns a lot of businesses and are extremely well off. His father was sent on a few occasions to scout for the hairem and a few other jobs which he won't tell me about. But yes, my friend knows personally the children, some better than others. He talks to azeemah on friendster.

Also, it would appear that the sultan really is still the riches man, but its very hard to keep count of such things. I've been told that Brunei is like a big family business, with fingers in a lot of business pies. Its incredibly hard to make an accurate account of the true value. Did you know that the Sultan owns and incredibly large portion of Harrods? I don't know what % or anything, everything I know if from my friend.

Anyway, if you guys want stories I'm sure i can get them.
