CEREMONIAL WELCOME: The Head of State inspects the guard-of-honour mounted for his 91st birthday celebration parade at Miri Stadium. |
MIRI: It was a riot of colour and a united Sarawak
at the 91st birthday parade of the Head of state Tun Datuk Patinggi
Abang Haji Muhammad Salahuddin at Miri Stadium yesterday.
It was attended by state cabinet ministers and people from political parties, civil service, private sector and NGOs.
With
91 contingents taking part in the parade, the colourful costumes and
atmosphere of celebration were a sight to behold for those who had
turned up at the stadium since early morning.
State cabinet
ministers led by Chief Minister Pehin Sri Abdul Taib Mahmud and wife
Puan Sri Ragad Kurdi Taib were on hand to receive the Head of State and
spouse Toh Puan Norkiah upon their arrival at the venue at 8am.
It
kicked off with a royal salute by the Armed Forces followed by the
state anthem and the inspection of the guard-of-honour by the head of
state, and later inspection of contingents with the chief minister by
his side.
It was followed by a ‘doa’ and address by the chief
minister who attributed the many changes and progress enjoyed by the
state to the head of state’s leadership as reflected in the speeches in
the state legislative assembly.
