Personal life

Mardi's twin brother Hardi Bujang is also a Bruneian footballer, making their international debuts at the same match. Mardi went on loan to DPMM FC during Hardi's stint, which means they have played together at QAF FC, DPMM FC, Jerudong FC and the national team. Having both on the field has caused trouble and confusion to referees on one occasion at least. [12]
