Brunei is a sultanate on the northern coast of the island of Borneo, which it shares with Indonesia and Malaysia. The Sultan of Brunei, Hassanal Bolkiah, one of the wealthiest people on earth, has decreed that Brunei will gradually begin implementing the Islamic or shariah criminal code known as hudud, which allows for punishments such as the amputation of hands for thieves and stoning to death for adultery. The decision has prompted an international outcry and boycotts of some businesses owned by Brunei’s royal family, such as the Dorchester Hotel in Beverly Hills.
