Che Engku Chesterina (born Chesterina Sim-Zecha in 1943) is a former Indonesian ballerina who became a Malaysian royal after marrying Tunku Tan Sri Abdullah, a prince of Negeri Sembilan and founder of Melewar Group.
She is descended from Louisa Zecha, an Indo planter of Bohemian descent, by her second marriage to Sim Keng Koen, the first Kapitein der Chinezen of Sukabumi, the Dutch-appointed head of the local Chinese community.
Chesterina Sim-Zecha moved to England to study ballet in 1956 at The Legat School under the tutelage of Madam Nadine Nicolaeva-Legat.
While working in Rodgers and Hammerstein's musical, “Flower Drum Song” in London's West End, Sir Peter Wright discovered Chesterina's exceptional talent.
