There was
one year where I was asked to represent the office at a Buka Puasa event at the
Istana Iskandariah at Kuala Kangsar.
It was held
on 19 July 2014. I had never been to one before and so I went with my camera
and it was fruitful.
Sultan
Nazrin Muizzuddin Shah and Raja Permaisuri Tuanku Zara Salim were present
together with the then Menteri Besar Zambri Abdul Kadir.
We started
with ‘Iftar’ also known as "berbuka puasa" with the usual dates and
the various foodstuffs such as Bubur Lambuk and washed that down with tea or
coffee.
Could help
notice the way the meals was set up. All of the palace cutlery had the Perak
logo embossed on them including the serviettes. So to were their chairs, cross stitch table cloths and
the use of doile table mats was nice to see and seldom seen now.
Then it was
time for the Mahgrib prayers during which time I joined the other guys in the yard
all the time taking night photos of the Istana.
When Tuanku
returned it was time for dinner.
Afterwards it
was time for the Terawih prayers. As they adjourned their Highnesses met with
and greeted some of their guests.
Where they
returned it was to have their special supper or Moreh as it is called
consisting of a snack and hot tea in a glass before we went home.
Another Been
There, Done That.
