'Spirit of the constitution best way out for ruler-rakyat conflict'



All parties who are in conflict today should adhere to basic principles under the Federal Constitution as the best "way out" to preserve harmony between the royal institution and the people.
In making the call, Parti Amanah Negara deputy president Salahuddin Ayub cited the principle that everyone is seen as equal under the law.
"Whether it involves the royal institution represented by the Malay rulers or the common people represented by politicians elected via the parliamentary democracy system, all parties should 'watch their steps' as to not cross into the lines defined by the Federal Constitution.
"Amanah hopes that all parties in conflict today would return to the spirit of what has been enshrined under the Federal Constitution and their oath of office as the best way out to preserve harmonious relationship between the country's royal institution and the people," he said in a statement.
"The discussion table is still wide open for both parties to put an end to their differences," said Salahuddin, who did not mention any names.
His call however was made following the royal rebuke issued by Johor ruler Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar towards former premier Dr Mahathir Mohamed's claims of China domination in the Forest City project.
The Johor sultan had blasted Mahathir on Monday, saying that he was "deeply offended and hurt" by the Parti Pribumi Bersatu Malaysia chairperson's comments made over the past weeks.
Mahathir had penned a letter in response on Tuesday but the Johor sultan yesterday said he has said all that needed to be said and was not interested in further debates.
He had previously claimed in a series of comments and blog posts that huge tracts of land around Johor Baru were being sold to foreigners with no restriction, and there would be mass immigration to take up residence in these new cities.
Mahathir raised these concerns based on a Bloomberg report that claimed Forest City would accommodate 700,000 new houses upon its completion.- Mkini
