    hajab???

    The last picture shows Prince Mohammed Bolkiah and his cow. One of the Sultans family.

    The yacht was the "Project Panhandle" made by Blohm & Voss in Hamburg. The contract was cancelled by the Bolkiah family in the late 90ies. Some 2 years or so ago Another camel driver (al Maktum) bought it and finished it in Dubai. Now she is named Dubai, and is the largest Motoryacht at present.

    The pictures of the city show Bandar Seri Begawan the Capitol.

    And I know it was a bit unfair to say northern Hemisphere, it is just 4° North.

    Heroes and Villains

    This island is named after an explorer.

    To the south of our island, a hero helped ships find their way, perhaps even through the difficult and dangerous strait that separates the island from the mainland.

    Just off the northern tip of our island, is a small outlier, where a villain committed genocide.

    What is the name of:
    The island,
    its very dangerous southern strait
    and northern outlier,
    the hero
    and the villain.

    Just to be sure!
    We are on the Southern Hemisphere, I guess.
