King alights from official car to check on accident victim

Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah alighted from his official car today to check on the condition of an accident victim, near the intersection of USJ, North-South Expressway Central Link (Elite).

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

According to the posting, Sultan Abdullah was then on his way home after attending the 'Anak-anak Malaysia Walk 2019' programme at Eco Ardence in Setia Alam.

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.

Last 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.
