PETALING JAYA: Johor ruler Sultan Ibrahim Sultan Iskandar has issued a warning against those attempting to disrupt the unity in the state.
“For years, I have always emphasised and reminded everyone that mutual understanding and respect between races is the backbone of the unity of the Johor people.
“I am warning any party attempting to create disunity or divide the people,” he said in a statement to Bernama.
He said the “Bangsa Johor” concept, which unites the people of the state, had prevailed for a long time and had also brought prosperity to the state.
Sultan Ibrahim also called on the people of Johor to reject any form of extremism that could cause disharmony.
“Stay away from jealousy, revenge and prejudice because it is a dangerous disease that is harmful to society and the country.”
Last week, Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim issued a stern warning against sowing racial or religious hatred, saying the government would not tolerate such actions.
He said he had also instructed the authorities to be on the watch for any attempts to “fan the flames of hatred”. - FMT
