Meanwhile, Fadhlina expressed her gratitude to Sultan Nazrin for posthumously conferring the Saidina Abu Bakar As-Siddiq Award on her late mother, Datin Dr Siti Zalikhah Md Nor.

"On behalf of my family, I would like to thank His Royal Highness and the state government for this meaningful recognition," she said.
