Saudi Arabia’s King Salman bin Abdul Aziz al-Saud kick-started his first official royal tour of Asia on Sunday when he arrived in Malaysia. The cargo for the week long trip in Indonesia, including two Mercedes-Benz S600 limousines and two electric lifts, was transferred in 27 flights spread over two weeks beginning February 15.
King Salman used a personal escalator to descend from the plane where he was received by the Malaysian Prime Minister Najib Razak before being whisked away in a heavily guarded convoy for a state ceremony at Malaysia’s parliament grounds. Here we look at a series of pictures of the King's arrival and his entourage.
