PETALING JAYA: The Yang di-Pertuan Agong and Raja Permaisuri Agong have urged Malaysians to mind the Covid-19 standard operating procedure while celebrating Christmas.
Al-Sultan Abdullah Ri'ayatuddin Al-Mustafa Billah Shah and Tunku Hajah Azizah Maimunah Iskandariah also want Malaysians to be grateful for being granted health and the presence of their loved ones during the festive season.
Istana Negara Comptroller of the Royal Household Datuk Ahmad Fadil Shamsuddin in a statement said the King and Queen extended their Christmas and New Year wishes to all Malaysians.
They said Malaysians must not worry about not being able to celebrate Christmas the same way as in previous years.
"Even though the festival is celebrated with rules, the King and Queen stated that the people must be happy that they are still healthy and can still be with their loved ones.
"The Yang di-Pertuan Agong and Raja Permaisuri Agong advised Malaysians to always be careful and disciplined in practising the SOP while celebrating the festival.
"His Majesty further urged all Malaysians regardless of their backgrounds to pray for Malaysia to be blessed and protected from all harm and be granted peace and unity," he said.
Ahmad Fadil issued the statement from the United Arab Emirates where the King is now on a five-day special visit since Dec 18.
Sultan Abdullah will return tomorrow (Dec 25).
Ahmad Fadil added that the King would undergo the Covid-19 screening upon arrival in Malaysia and a quarantine as required for those who have returned from overseas.
"His Majesty will celebrate the 2021 New Year at Istana Negara under quarantine," he said. - Star
