Princess Nor Ehsani (born 15 October 1935) or sometimes spelled Noor Ehsani,[2][3] is the only child and daughter of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin and Consort Queen Tengku Raihani.[4] Additionally, she is the granddaughter of Sultan Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah. Out of four siblings, she is the only surviving gahara (pure descendants of the sultan) of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin.[5]

Girl Guide Movement

Noor Ehsani agreed to take on the role of State Commissioner in 1964, and the Girl Guide Movement reopened after a British trainer paid a visit. In order to further aid in the promotion of Guiding throughout the nation, the Bruneian government established the position of Organising Commissioner in the State Education Department in 1966. This position's duties included setting up Guide companies and Brownie packs in schools. Nine new Brownie packs and fourteen new Guide companies have been formed by 1972.[6][7]

Personal life

Born in Klang, Selangor on 15 October 1935.[8] Currently residing in Kampong Sungai Hanching, Nor Ehsani is wed to Tengku Pengiran bin Tengku Abdul Aziz, her cousin and grandson of Sultan Alaeddin Sulaiman Shah. Following the demise of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin in 1950, Tengku Ampuan Raihani and Princess Nor Ehsani temporarily established themselves in Kuching, Sarawak, prior to departing from their abode and relocating to her native Selangor.[9] For the New Year's and Hari Raya celebrations, Nor Ehsani, whose electricity was switched off in February 1967, has gone to Kuala Lumpur with her husband and three boys.[10]

Duties

The Brunei monarchy had rules that stated she was unfit to take her father's reign. The younger brother of the late Sultan, Omar Ali Saifuddien III, was given the title of Sultan because all of Sultan Ahmad Tajuddin's children were female.[5] She accompanies Queen Saleha in official occasions held in Brunei. Due to confusion by the Registration Department, her husband is sometimes known as Tengku Pengiran Abdul Aziz.[9] On 5 August 2007, she gave permission to attend the Royal Berkshire Hall award presentation event for the 2007 Persatuan Pertiwi Quran Reading Competition.[11]

Issue

Tengku Putera Pawzy, Tengku Putera Amir Farouk, and Tengku Putera Muhammad Harris Fadizllah are her three children with her spouse.[12][5]
