Sultan Perak tell judges to remain politically impartial

At special seminar on the federal constitution organised by the Perak State Secretariat on 21st July 2009, Sultan Azlan Shah was quoted by BERNAMA as saying:

" The major and heaviest test for a judge was remaining impartial, especially in terms of emotion and inclination .Judges hold great responsibility in upholding the rule of law and integrity of the courts and their failure to do so will result in an imbalance."

Whilst I sincerely support the statement made by HRH Sultan Perak, these very words sound hollow in light of the recent BN takeover (coup) of Perak State.I fear that the majority of Perakians and Malaysians take the statement of HRH Sultan Perak only at face value and many would label it as a case of " Cakap tak serupa bikin".

For an eminent and esteem public figure, this fall from the graces of the Rakyat, must surely hurt.

The way forward for HRH Sultan Perak, to regain the esteem and confidence of his Rakyat, is to do what the majority of Perakians want and that is to dissolve the Perak DUN and hold re-elections.

All HRH Sultan Perak need to do is ask his Rakyat- 8 out of 10 of them will tell him that this is what they want. I pray that HRH Sultan Perak will respect the wishes of his Rakyat.

This is the ONLY just way out of this political quagmire in Perak :

PUT THE POWER BACK INTO THE HANDS OF THE RAKYAT PERAK!
