King alights from official car to check on accident victim


SHAH ALAM (Bernama): The caring nature of Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah was again evident Saturday (Aug 31) when he alighted from his official car to check on the condition of an accident victim near the USJ intersection of the North-South Expressway Central Link (ELITE).

This was shared by Economic Affairs Minister Datuk Seri Mohamed Azmin Ali on his social media pages at 6pm today.

According to the posting, Sultan Abdullah was then on his way home after attending the #AnakAnakMalaysia Walk 2019 at Eco Ardence in Setia Alam here.

The victim, a woman, was reported to have suffered minor injuries when her vehicle skidded and overturned on the right lane of the highway.

His Majesty also ordered his police escort to send the victim to hospital for treatment.

In June, Sultan Abdullah also assisted an accident victim in Putrajaya while going to a pre-Cabinet meeting with Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad at Istana Melawati. - Bernama
