JOHOR BARU – Visitors outside the Istana Bukit Serene crown arch yesterday were surprised to see the Johor sultan come out on a Honda Dash Wave motorcycle and mingle with them without protocol.
Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar, who was inspecting the cleanliness of the palace gardens at the time, obliged some photographs with the visitors at the palace entrance.
Pushing palace protocal aside, Sultan Ibrahim approached the families with small children and greeted them, much to their delight.
Sultan Ibrahim, who wore a bright red shirt, was seen in a cheerful mood as he entertained the small children during the brief meeting.
The ruler’s impromptu gesture was captured on his official Facebook page, which includes photos and a short video clip of the casual meeting outside the palace gate.
A newlywed couple who were dressed in their wedding attire and were conducting a wedding photography session, seized the moment to have Sultan Ibrahim be part of the photographs.
