Homecoming for Perak’s forgotten heroes

TAIPING: The quest to bring back the remains of two of Perak’s most illustrious sons from Singapore is coming to an end.

Tengku Menteri Ngah Ibrahim of Larut and Laksamana Mohd Amin Alang, the territorial chief of Hilir Perak, will be given the honour and respect rightly due to them this Saturday.

When the Royal Malaysian Navy ship KD Laksamana docks at the Lumut naval base, the remains of the forgotten Malay heroes will be accorded a ceremonial welcome.
