Recently, there’s been plenty of dissatisfaction among citizens about VIPs. Following the TGV “Batman” screening fiasco, people simply haven’t been too happy with VIPs. However, Uncle Kentang aka Mr. Kuan Chee Heng has reportedly had a good encounter instead.
Yesterday morning (8th March), Mr. Kuan and his team were taking a patient to the National Heart Institute in an ambulance. However, their route was interrupted by a convoy which was believed to be for the KDYMM Sultan Kedah. To their surprise, the convoy ended up escorting them too!
Mr. Kuan started his Facebook post with a statement most nowadays would disagree with: “Not all motorcades stop ambulances!” He shared that he had a run in with a convoy which was allegedly escorting the KDYMM Sultan Kedah. Upon seeing the convoy, Mr. Kuan had slowed down the ambulance to make way for the entourage.
However, an outrider approached them and gestured to the ambulance to follow them. Three other outriders started slowing vehicles to create passage for the ambulance. The ambulance was then escorted from Simpang Jalan Semantan to Jalan Parlimen. “We were so touched by their good deed,” Mr. Kuan said. “The motorcade didn’t slow the ambulance. Instead, it made it easier to move during the busy and jammed road (that) morning.”

They reportedly arrived at the National Heart Institute safely. In addition to thanking the convoy for helping the team, Mr. Kuan also praised the KDYMM Sultan Kedah. “Long live the king!” he cheered. He added that they had prioritised road safety and stated that in an emergency, an ambulance could use a hailer to alert authorities of the situation.
Mr. Kuan’s post was shared by the Royal Malaysia Police, confirming the incident. Additionally, they commended those involved for their help. Well, hopefully we see more of such incidents too!
