Biography

Tengku Anis was born on the 6th of January 1949 at Palm Manor, Kota Bharu to Tengku Abdul Hamid bin Tengku Muda Sulong Abdul Putra and his wife, Tengku Azizah binti Tengku Sri Maharaja Muhammad Hamzah. Her paternal grandfather, Tengku Abdul Putra, was the eldest son of the last reigning King of Jering, which was then one of the seven states in Southern Siam under Malay rule. Her maternal grandfather, Tengku Muhammad Hamzah, was the last Chief Minister of Kelantan appointed by the Sultan and the first post-independence Menteri Besar.

She received religious education from a personal tutor and completed her formal primary and secondary education at Zainab English School. She was conferred an Honorary Degree doctor of Philosophy in Human Resources Development from the Ramkhamhaeng University, Thailand on the 26th of February 2005.

On 4 December 1968, Tengku Anis married Tengku Ismail Petra, the then-Tengku Mahkota (Crown Prince) of Kelantan, at Istana Kota Lama in Kota Bharu. Following this, she was bestowed the title of Tengku Ampuan Mahkota (Crown Princess) of Kelantan on the 1st of January 1969.

In 1979, Sultan Yahya Petra (at the time King of Malaysia) passed and Tengku Ismail Petra was installed the Sultan of Kelantan. She was installed the Raja Perempuan (Queen) of Kelantan on the 30th of March 1979. Her husband, HRH Sultan Ismail Petra, reigned until the 13th of September 2010, and was succeeded by their eldest son, Tengku Muhammad Faris Petra. [1]
