    Christmas trees, carols and even Santa hats are off in the Borneo nation
    Muslims caught celebrating are threatened with up to five years in prison
    The nation's non-Muslims are allowed to celebrate in their communities
    But revealing their celebrations to Muslims would also lead to jail time
    In 2014 the country introduced an anti-gay Sharia Penal Code, which includes the execution of any Muslim for sodomy
    The sultan owns the hotel chain with the Beverly Hills Hotel and Dorchester among others - and those properties are decked out Christmas
