| Power Points | Money can't buy love, but it can buy a bit of stability. Though the world's former richest man slid down a couple of notches, at least his kingdom has profited from the steep rise in oil prices. Still, there's been enough turmoil, thanks to the political and financial chaos created by Hassanal's younger brother, Prince Jefri, against whom he bravely started court proceedings. Familial divisions aside, the sultan is proving his royal worth.
