Malaysia’s King, Sultan Abdullah Ahmad Shah lauded the historic bipartisan deal that will keep Prime Minister Ismail Sabri Yaakob in power for at least the next 11 months.
In a message, the Palace says, “His Majesty reiterates that the people should not be burdened with never-ending political turmoil when the country is facing health issues and an economic slowdown due to the Covid-19 pandemic.”
“The Yang di-Pertuan Agong stresses that this is also in line with the Malay Rulers’ stance on the importance of the formation of a stable government which functions efficiently and is prudent at a time when the country is facing various crises,” the statement says.
