Sultan Sharafuddin Idris Shah of Selangor received the presentation of the Keris Jubli Perak on October 7, commemorating his 25th year on the Selangor throne.

The intricate craftsmanship of the keris, created over 12 months by skilled artisans led by Rafulin Foundation, embodies the significance and uniqueness of the Sultan's reign.
The keris measures 25 inches in length, symbolizing the 25 years of the Sultan's rule, and features seven types of iron to signify unity of strength. White Eagle, Black Healer wood, buffalo horn, and nine gemstones are also incorporated, each representing specific aspects such as courage, authority, resilience, refinement, and the nine districts of Selangor.
