One of my bridesmaids, a crazy Italian girl whom I used to live with in the UK, emailed me the other day to ask if I could pass a message to the K#ng of Malaysia. Feeling rather amused, I read the rest of the email to see what exactly she had in mind. You could never tell with an Italian. They’re as crazy as crazy can get. But I love them so.
It turns out, our Malaysian K#ng had made a trip to Dubai for some horse activity (how come the local papers didn’t report it? Well, I guess it isn’t exactly exciting news, haha) and her famous photographer artist friend had taken a picture of him and then painted a potrait of him. They wanted to know if the K#ng would be interested in purchasing his own portrait 
I told her I could certainly try contacting him as I have a friend who was the PA to his wife (I’ve since learnt that she has now resigned when I bumped into her last week at BSC) and his brother used to be my client. He was a bum. In fact, I found out later that he was in partnership with one of my ex-boyfriend’s stepmother (who is now deceased) over an oil and gas company. Now, this lady was a dentist and K#ng’s brother was a ‘businessman’ (that had nothing to do with oil and gas) who cramped 20 staff into a 6 x 6 feet office (and ran off without paying rent) so how is it that they get to be directors of an oil and gas company? I also found out that brother had LOTS of different companies and came to the conclusion that some funny business was going on.
*sigh* Not all r0yals are like that. But I must say many do take things for granted and expect a LOT from Taxpayers!
K#ng has another brother whom the Hubs went to school with and he sounds more straight. He works (yes, he actually works) at a big local firm that owns many resorts locally and some internationally.
I have so much to say about our r0yals but I better hold my tongue or I might get bombed with C5!
remember to ask for a cut when u pass them the contact (referral) and if ur friends managed to close the deal…ask for a bigger cut…hehehehe
