The Sultan and his family belong to the House of Daeng Chelak. The ruling house had founded the monarchy in 1745 and continued to be in power to this day.[1]

Background

Members of Selangor Royal Family are descendants of the first Sultan of Selangor, Salehudin of Selangor. He is the eldest son of Daeng Chelak, one of the five Bugis warriors that rose into power in the Malay Kingdom during the Bendahara dynasty.[2] They are considered as the viceregal house of Riau in Riau-Lingga Sultanate, and can trace their ancestry from the Bugis Royal House in Luwu, Sulawesi.[3]

On 5 November 1903, upon ascending the throne as the fifth Sultan, Sulaiman of Selangor decreed that all his descendants will carry the hereditary first name Tengku instead of Raja.[4] The naming tradition was kept to this day.
