Untold History : The Lost Tartan of Johore

When HH Abu Bakar of Johore visited Queen Victoria in Balmoral Castle sometimes in 1880...




HH Albert Baker was awarded with Tartan Scottish.. = with special design REGISTERED under his name by Queen Victoria.


This is trademark for HH Abu BAkar and all his descendant... similarly Scottish Clan of Clan McLeod, McKenzie etc. di Scotland..  each of them has distinctive own Tartan... but.. this time... not a Scottish.. but Malay Sultan.

IN 1930

Again.. his eldest son. Sultan HH Major Ibrahim awarded the same Tartan, but with different designed = for his infamous Regiment of Johore Military Force.

Sultan Ibrahim was awarded Tartan no. 260.. = REGISTERED for him and his JMF  thus named  "Tartan Johore Regiment" afterward.


But pity... non of these Tartan was used by Johor Royalty.. let alone their infamous Regiment.
