Ong Sum Ping (Huang Senping)

Huang Senping, better known as Ong Sum Ping, Pengiran Maharaja Lela Sahibul Kahar of Sultanate of Brunei. He was said to arrive in Brunei in 1375.

There are several stories about Ong Sum Ping.
a) That he was a Ming Prince of China
b) That he was actually Sultan Ahmad, after marrying Sultan Mohammad's daughter, Puteri Ratna Devi
c) That his sister married Sultan Ahmad (Pateh Berbai), and their daughter, Princess Ratna Kesuma, married Sharif Ali who became Sultan Sharif Ali, 3rd Sultan of Brunei




An interesting wesbite, no doubt a lot of time spent creating this family tree:
