King shows caring side by checking on accident victim


PETALING JAYA: The King has once again shown his caring side when he stopped his motorcade to check on an accident victim, Wednesday (Jan 29) morning.

Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah was on his way to a pre-Cabinet meeting when his convoy came across a car that was involved in an accident near the Putrajaya toll along the Maju Expressway (MEX).

A video on the Istana Negara's official Instagram page showed Sultan Abdullah getting out of the car to check on the victim.

His motorcade, including uniformed guards, stopped and waited as he met with the driver and inspected the car.

Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Hajah Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah was also riding with him but stayed in the car.

After making sure that everyone was safe, Sultan Abdullah returned to his vehicle and resumed his journey.

Malaysians said they were touched by the King's humility.
