KUALA LUMPUR: Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim expressed confidence in the justice and prudence of Yang di-Pertuan Agong Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri’ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah, stating that the people have benefitted from His Majesty’s efforts to ensure peace throughout his reign.
The Prime Minister praised the concern shown by Al-Sultan Abdullah and Raja Permaisuri Agong Tunku Azizah Aminah Maimunah Iskandariah, noting that it goes beyond the established boundaries between a monarch and his subjects.
“Beginning with prolonged political instability, the spread and impact of the Covid-19 pandemic, and shifting economic downturns, the country has been in uncertainty and crisis,” Anwar said.
“However, His Majesty has fulfilled the responsibilities of leadership perfectly, embodying qualities with a people-centric approach which consistently aligns with the rakyat to ensure that peace and well-being remain priorities in any circumstances,” Anwar said.
Anwar made these comments during his address at the State Banquet held in a hotel in honor of the 16th Yang di-Pertuan Agong.
