A 24-year-old Singaporean man, Fuad Odem, unexpectedly encountered Johor Crown Prince Tunku Ismail Sultan Ibrahim at Queensway Shopping Centre on Monday, October 12. While Fuad was browsing for a Democratic Republic of the Congo jersey, Tunku Ismail entered the sports apparel shop, accompanied by six bodyguards. The Singaporean expressed his shock and requested permission to take a photo with the prince, to which Tunku Ismail readily agreed.
