Enough is enough, Johor Sultan says on plot to topple government

JOHOR BARU: The Sultan of Johor, Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar has voiced his concern over rumours concerning the stability of the government, although six months have passed since the 15th General Election.

Sultan Ibrahim said priorities must be placed on the people, economy, and the country's prosperity.

"The rakyat placed high hopes in the recent general election and voted for 222 representatives to bring back political stability to the country.

"But until today, the 222 Members of Parliament are unable to be on the same page with efforts made to derail the stability that is being carefully built.

"This is not healthy for the entire nation, whether socially, economically or even our standing internationally.

"Enough is enough. How long more must the 30 over million people of our country endure this situation?" he said in a Facebook posting today.

Previously, Prime Minister Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim did not deny the existence of a conspiracy to topple the unity government.

However, he said, the plot did not have any strong basis and described those behind it as daydreamers.

Bersatu supreme member Muhammad Faiz Na'aman on his Facebook also hinted that the so-called plot is in the works.

He shared a WhatsApp screengrab of his conversation with a reporter asking Faiz about the opposition's confidence to come into power before the current government term's end.

Faiz simply responded, "Yes we are. God willing."
