Luis, in part it depends upon what roles might be open to the princess - if becoming the monarch is possible, then that's one thing; if not, then the role is different. Certainly an appreciation of the culture of the people is paramount - royalty are conservative in the sense that they conserve the values and the history of their people, act almost as a living archive. In Asian royalty you hope to see the Confucian value of reciprocal responsibility well understood as well - in my opinion this was a failing of the European monarchies. One of my wife's recent ancestors, Queen Min of Korea, needed to understand the tensions amongst 4 foreign powers who were interested in the Korean peninsula and how to play them off against each other. So certainly a broad understanding of, as it were, national personality and ambition - what drives Japan or Russia's interest in Korea in the late 1800s.
That doesn't give you your 10 item list, but I think some elements are in there.
Interesting topic.
