Malaysia Prime Minister Abdullah Ahmad Badawi will marry Jeanne Abdullah, 53, on Saturday, the Prime Minister’s Office announced today, Wednesday June-6th, 2007. The wedding will take place at the prime minister’s official residence, Seri Perdana, here and will be attended by close relatives, the Prime Minister’s Office said in a statement. Abdullah’s wife, Datin Seri Endon Mahmood, died on Oct 20 2005 after a long battle with breast cancer. Abdullah, 67, has two children, a son Kamaluddin and a daughter Nori, from his marriage of 40 years with Endon.

Jeanne, who is the ex-wife of Endon’s brother, was born in Kuala Lumpur on July 29 1953 and is the eldest of four siblings. She was educated at Sekolah Menengah Assunta and has wide experience in administration and hotel management and has worked as supervisor of the official residence of the deputy prime minister and manager of the Seri Perdana Complex. Jeanne has two daughters, Nadiah and Nadene.

Well, “Congratulation” to both the to-be groom and bride. It was only about 3 months ago when the premier brushed off the speculation that he had gotten married. He was reported to be in jovial mood when asked about the gossip on the internet, so now you know why he was in such a mood huh? It was because he hasn’t yet but deep inside he has already made the necessary arrangement for the big-day – so the gossip was only half-right by then.

So I guess it’s true that one cannot perform without a woman *grin*. Nevertheless, it’s the hope of the whole nation to have a more “responsive” and “responsible” premier who can actually put the people’s priority on top in the country’s policies and day-to-day administration, not that he has done anything that the people can be proud of so far. It’s yet to be seen the influence of the soon-to-be first-lady on the premier. Do you think former premier Mahathir Mohamed who has been criticizing Badawi will attend the wedding ceremony? Maybe he’s going to put in another stunt using health as the reason to skip it, maybe not.
