Sultan Azlan Shah takes ETS ride home

Monday September 20, 2010





The Sultan of Perak, Sultan Azlan Shah, waving to media and officials as the electric train service (ETS) pulled in at the Ipoh Railway Station yesterday.
The Sultan was accompanied by the Raja Permaisuri Perak, Tuanku Ba­­i­­­nun (in the background).



The royal couple arrived at the station at 4.23pm. Sultan Azlan Shah and his entourage had boarded the train at the Kuala Lumpur Railway Station at 2.15pm.



The unexpected presence of Sul­tan Azlan Shah obviously delighted his subjects who lined both sides of the yellow carpet to shake hands with him while snapping away with their cameras and mobile phones.



KTMB’s ETS chief operating officer Azizullah Kinayatullah said his office received a phone call on Friday that the Sultan wanted to travel on the ETS.



“Tuanku said it was a good trip and that he enjoyed it,” said Azizul­lah. — Bernama
