Shari bin Ahmad[1] is a Bruneian aristocrat and retired military officer who became the fifth Commander of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces (RBAF) from 1999 until 2001, and the second Commander of the Royal Brunei Land Force (RBLF) from 1994 until 1999.

Military career

[edit ]

Among the 72 cadet officers who graduated from Officer Cadet School, Portsea on 9 December 1966, Major general Walter S. McKinnon presented awards to two Bruneian cadets, namely Shari Ahmad and B.M. Ali.[2]

In 1969, Lieutenant Colonel H.F. Burrows presented individual awards to the members of the Platoon No.5 of 'B' Company for winning the Seri Begawan Shield's shooting competition, held at Berakas Camp. As the winning team's captain, he received the shield for his achievement.[3] On 11 August 1994, he was appointed as the Commander of the Royal Brunei Land Force, succeeding Husin Ahmad in that role before being replaced himself by Jaafar Abdul Aziz on 28 October 1999.[4]

Major General Shari took command of the Royal Brunei Armed Forces on 31 August 1999.[5] He attended the 2nd Asia-Pacific Chiefs of Defence Conference in Honolulu, that same year.[6] On 16 February 2001, Shari made a farewell visit to the members of the armed forces of the Royal Brunei Armed Services (ATPBDB) at Bolkiah Garrison.[7] Later on 2 April, Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah accepted an audience to him and his successor.[8]

Personal life

[edit ]

His residence was reported to be in Rampayoh of Labi in the Belait District.[2] After his time in the military, he became the President of Veterans Association Royal Brunei Armed Forces (VARBAF).[9] [10] [11] Notably, he previously held the position of President of the Veterans Confederation of ASEAN (Veconac).[12] Launched in November 2014, the double-decker cruise ship MV Sentosa is run by a local business, Sha-Zan Marine, under the direction of the retired Shari Ahmad.[13]
