Sultan Ibrahim: Don’t mess with Johor”
PUCHONG: Johor ruler Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar warned unnamed parties against interfering into the affairs of the state.
“With regards to Johor, do not interfere with the affairs of this state because this sovereign state still has a Sultan.
“I am currently abroad, but have been following the progress in the country, especially for Johor, through various reports,” Sultan Ibrahim said in a Facebook post.
“I will make the best decision for my people when the time comes,” he added.
The warning comes in the wake of Prime Minister Tun Dr Mahathir Mohamad’s insistence that only the majority party would determine the next Johor Menteri Besar.
This comes following the resignation of Datuk Osman Sapian that was announced by Dr Mahathir in Parliament yesterday.
Johor exco Dr Sahruddin Jamal is the current frontrunner for the post as he is also from Bersatu.
