"Ampun Muedzul-Lail Tan Kiram, 35th Sultan of Sulu, son of Ampun Moh. Mahakuttah A. Kiram (last recognised Sultan of Sulu by Philippine government under Presidential Memorandum Order 427 issued in 1974 by President of Philippines H.E. Ferdinand Marcos), 34th Sultan of Sulu and grandson of Ampun Esmail E. Kiram, 33rd Sultan of Sulu, is aware that early morning of Tuesday, about 100-200 people, some of them armed men and a handful of women, boarded speedboats on Simunul Island in Tawi-Tawi, Philippines and left for Lahad Datu, a coastal area in Sabah in northern Borneo. These men and women were leaded by Datu Ajbimuddin Kiram, who is younger brother of one of the self-styled Sultans of Sulu. Currently there are up to 60 people who claim to be Sultans of Sulu. This incident has nothing to do with the Royal Court neither with legitimate Sultan of Sulu.
