Actually I am a grandson of Raja Nor Kamar.It's true that Raja Puan Muda title is belongs to a wife of the Raja Di Hilir Perak while Raja Puan Besar Perak is belongs to a wife of Raja Muda Perak. Just to add in, Raja Nor Kamar is also daughter of Tengku Salim of Johor, married to Raja Saleha binti Sultan Abdullah Mohammed Shah II who reigned 1874-1877. Both Raja Nor Kamar and Raja Ahmad Hisham are cousin to each other.
