Career
Within a 1960 Colonial Office List, Khamis was first noted to be a member of the Privy Council to Sultan Omar Ali Saifuddien III.[3][4] On 10 April 1967, he was among the Bruneian hajj pilgrims to arrive at Jeddah, via Kuala Lumpur and Singapore.[5] He would assume royal duties during ceremonial and national events after becoming a member of cheteria, and later a wazir in 1971.[6]
Personal life
Khamis was married to Pengiran Khadija. He is the half brother of Sultan Muhammad Jamalul Alam II, this is because he was not the son of his father's recognised queen consort, Pengiran Isteri Pengiran Siti Fatimah.
On 8 September 1963, Khamis lost his granddaughter Dayangku Normala at her home in Kampong Sungai Kianggeh, followed by all nationwide flags flown half mast on the next day in condolences.[7]
