Dato Seri Paduka Haji Marsal bin Maun (8 November 1913 – 28 March 2000) was the second Menteri Besar (Chief Minister of Brunei), who served from 1961 to 1962. It was during his tenure as Menteri Besar that the Brunei Revolt broke out. He was one of the person responsible for the establishment of the Federation of Brunei Malay Teachers (PGGMB) and Brunei Scout Movement, which both still run till today. He was a prominent member of the Brunei Malay Teachers' Union, close to Sultan Omar Ali Safuddien III, and the first of the "three M's" that the British government dreaded (Pengiran Mohamed Ali and Pengiran Mohamed Yusuf were the other two).[1]
In this Malay name, there is no surname or family name. The name Maun is a patronymic, and the person should be referred to by their given name, Marsal. The word "bin" or "binti"/"binte" means 'son of' or 'daughter of', respectively.
