FOR 11 days, Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah and Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah embarked on an epic road trip on the Pan Borneo Highway that started in Tawau, Sabah, on Sept 3 and ended in Telok Melano, Sarawak, on Sept 13.

The brainchild of the King, the Kembara Kenali Borneo tour was meant for Their Majesties to get to know the people of Sabah and Sarawak more closely.
