Tuanku Abdul Halim, a king of two eras

KUALA LUMPUR: Tuanku Abdul Halim Mu'adzam Shah, who has created history by being elected twice as the Yang di-Pertuan Agong, is a nature-loving monarch who has deep concern for the people's welfare.

As the Sultan of Kedah and when he was the Yang di-Pertuan Agong for the first time, between 1970 and 1975, Tuanku Abdul Halim went to the ground often and brought the palace close to the people.
