Azemah Ni'matul Bolkiah (Jawi: عظيمة نعمة البلقية, born 26 September 1984) is a princess of Brunei.

She is the eighth child of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei by his former second wife, Puan Hajah Mariam.

On Thursday, 17 July 2008, she received her bachelor's degree during a convocation ceremony held at Butterworth Hall in Coventry.

Warwick University granted her a Bachelor of Laws with Honors.

Princess Fadzilah was present for the convocation ceremony.

Known to be the Sultan's athletic daughter, she shares her father's passion for polo.

She tells Tatler Malaysia that she participated in after-school athletic team competitions throughout her early school years, and that she started riding and show jumping at the age of four.

She didn't start playing polo until she was a law student at the University of Warwick.

Azemah made up for her lack of expertise at first by her unwavering dedication to her training and discipline.

This occurred during a period when men dominated the polo field, particularly in Brunei where there weren't many female participants.

Thus, Castagnola Marianela became her coach.

In the end, she was selected for the Brunei National Polo Team.

In 2009, she and Fadzilah played for the Ivy League during the Setia Motors Netball Open Championship at the Hassanal Bolkiah National Sports Complex.

Her team's victory in the Silver Cup cemented Brunei's renown as a leading international polo player.

She made a name for herself in 2017 when she was one of only two female polo players from Brunei in Kuala Lumpur at the 29th Southeast Asian (SEA) Games.

As one of the ten ASEAN Women in Sports ambassadors in 2021, Princess Azemah was chosen to represent Brunei as part of the ASEAN #WeScore campaign, which is sponsored by Japan.
