BANDAR SERI BEGAWAN (Borneo Bulletin/ANN): Brunei King, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah, has delivered a special titah in appreciation of the support received for the recently-concluded royal wedding of His Royal Highness Prince ‘Abdul Mateen and Yang Amat Mulia Pengiran Anak Isteri Anisha Rosnah Adam.

The monarch thanked the contributions from all levels of society, civil service members and uniformed personnel as well as the private sector in ensuring the royal wedding celebrations were a success.

His Majesty also extended appreciation to the special guests at the wedding as well as well-wishes received for the monarch and members of the royal family, especially the royal bride and groom.

The monarch said the royal family was moved by the jubilation shown by the populace, especially students and teaching staff involved in the Royal Procession.

“This,” His Majesty said, “illustrates how well-preserved the Brunei customs are despite the waves of change.”

The monarch also expressed pride for the solidarity between all levels of the community and hoped for such a spirit of cooperation in advancing and defending the nation, religion and monarchy.

On the royal wedding, His Majesty said, “It is certainly a blessing and a sweet memory for all, even more so for the younger generation who is responsible for ensuring that the local customs and culture remain relevant in the future.”

The monarch concluded by praying that “Brunei Darussalam will remain safe and prosperous, and blessed by Allah the Almighty’s eternal mercy and protection”. – Borneo Bulletin/ANN
