KUALA LUMPUR, Feb 27 — Raja Muda of Perak Raja Nazrin Shah today called for regard for the law and respect for lawful institutions.
Three weeks after his royal family had to preside over a constitutionally disputed change of government in Perak, the crown prince said that upholding the rule of law was key in combating terrorism and violence in the midst of an economic crisis.
Speaking at the International Conference of Youth on Terrorism, Raja Nazrin said that a high regard for the rule of law and institutions established in accordance to the law would instead promote peace and harmony.
He proposed that the public respect “institutions established through and in accordance with law” as the law is a fundamental building block of any nation.
Under the Federal Constitution, Malaysia is a constitutional monarchy that gives certain discretionary powers to the Malay rulers, which include the appointments of the prime minister and chief ministers, the chief executives of the country and individual states respectively.
“In Malaysia, primacy of law is upheld as one of pillars of the Rukunegara.
“A lawless system breeds a lawless culture, which in turn suggests lawless governance and lawless government,” he said.
Calling the current economic crisis “one of the most serious in modern history,” he said that domestic and international affairs would be complicated by the effects of the downturn.
“Economic deprivation may not actually light the flames of extremism but it can more than casually fan them.” he said.
This was due to a sense of dissatisfaction, “as a result of real or imagined injustices” which he said would have to be comprehensively addressed.

"rule of law to be upheld" ... Cakap tak serupa bikin!
"discretionary powers .. to appoint chief ministers..." if this is done regardless of the people's wish for re-Election, then we might as well scrap the democratic process of Election. Just appoint whoever as the chief minister as he wishes.
“A lawless system breeds a lawless culture, which in turn suggests lawless governance and lawless government,”.... LOL, just like Zimbabwe huh. Are we looking in that direction??
Enough said. Talk is cheap!
Oh.... not again. rubbish talk co*k no action from the monarch! please give rakyat a break. enough of nonsense, go get a job in other country lah. rakyat have gotten enough paying monies to fill stomach of monarch, eat sleep and shit all day long. even pig make good assets!
you must know that the monarch is still living in the feudal mentality, the 'kings is all', or 'singh is king' type of thinking.
what they say is the law, so can you guys pls follow the law? else we will turn into a lawless country. correct right? makes perfect sense to me.
HRH is addressing the wrong audience.
May HRH invite the cops, MACC officials, the entire judiciary including the CJ and AG officials for a "rule of law" session. They need it more than ordinary citizens. Or are these officialdom above laws including his HRH?
HRH should address the UMNO Youth groups that attacked Karpal Singh at Parliament. incompetent leader from politicians to monarch are as good as Mat Rempits. plain simple.
To KCWOng and others, If you guys do not understand the very nature of Malaysian Constutional Monarch, then I guess your ancestors had not teach you enough that you guys are not entitled to be Malaysian at all. Go back to your Homeland may it be India or China or Indonesia. You guys are not entitled to Malaysian Citizenship. Please respect the Sultans. Other wise migrate elsewhere. You guys are not welcome.
keep telling others to go back to china, india & etc
this sick pig head moron...
should back into his mother vagina & hide in her womb.
He can say what ever he wants but do the people believe him. The answer is no. As for me, I even do not bother to read what he says.
Our Prince sounds a bit out of touch with his subjects and reality! I wonder what was the title/area of his PhD Thesis?
let's kick all so called ROYALTY out of the country..
useless buggers... sucking rakyat money only!
Stup
It seems the raja muda evading the most crucial essence of ALL system : TRUST.
Thus, this make his speech are pretty blant and pale.
Rule of law is depend on the TRUST from the people. Similar to the money system, if nobody believe in the money notes, the system will COLLPASE, just look how Mugabe dreaming about money printing.
Always, the collapsing of ANY SYSTEM is from internal. When the rules of law subject to corruption, it will collapse sooner or later, no matter how much effort spend to "UPHOLD" the CORRUPTED rule of law.
Poor CT,
Do you understand the REAL history.
And do you understand what IS humanity rights?
Time to learn a little philosophy, it will help when you stuck.
everyone should go watch ASTRO... there is real application "Rule Of Law" that we all can learn. sit in front ASTRO and just ignore those shit from monarch.
clarificaton from anon 11.16AM. "is the officialdom above the laws inclduing HRH". meant to be "is officialdom above HRH and laws".
Words must be translated to action.
Cakap tak bikin..is worst than cakap tak serupa bikin.
So thank you for your speech...now go and bikin
He should just shut up! He and his so called well learnt dad has lost the privillege to talk like they have some grey matter between their ears after the Perak incident.
So, it is definitely disgusting for this Nazrin to talk. He dont qualify!!
aaarrrrr.....

I dont see anything new in this speech..
You and your father are such confusing people. Both of you have no more credibility.

Even in the most sexually liberated and self-satisfied of nations, many people still yearn to burn more, to feel ready for bedding no matter what the clock says and to desire their partner of 23 years as much as they did when their love was brand new.
The market is saturated with books on how to revive a flagging libido or spice up monotonous sex, and sex therapists say “lack of desire” is one of the most common complaints they hear from patients, particularly women.
