Joyous celebrations for a Ruler


TWO months ago, Negri Sembilan’s royal town of Seri Menanti saw the three-day splendour of the Istiadat Ulangan Penghulu Luak Tanah Mengandung Mengadap Menjunjung Duli, in which the five chiefs of the areas surrounding Seri Menanti renewed their pledges of allegiance to their Ruler (https://www.thestar.com.my/opinion/columnists/abidinideas/2023/12/01/).

With the birthday of the Yang di-Pertuan Besar of Negri Sembilan Tuanku Muhriz Tuanku Munawir occurring on Jan 14, a different set of events are being held, again celebrating the royal institution but with a much more personal touch, and comprising great diversity in terms of events and those attending them.
